Player Recommendations.

Yakult

Time for a fresh start as the new Football Manager is out.

Post here players you would recommend people to sign, be it free transfers or world class players. Anything goes.

Make sure you add position and role you've placed him in.

*I'll update this with a list as soon as people start posting.

Players (General, young/old etc.)

Lukaku - Forward
-Danny Wilson - CB
-Pato - CF
-Alexis Sanchez - ST/AM
-Juan Manuel Mata - AM
-Eden Dzeko - CF
-Marek Hamsik - AM
-Toni Kroos - AM (He was the best player in 2010 for many many years so I will assume the same in 11)
-Rene Adler - GK
-Gonzalo Berseggio - ST
-Matej Delac - GK
-Neymar - ST
-Eden Hazard

LOI

-Joseph Lapira - ST
-Ronan Finn

Dempsey

Romelu Lukaku - Looking for the next Didier Drogba? Look no further.

antomorro-sei

Obviously this is gonna depend on what level your playing at, like, Premier League or League of Ireland

Joseph Lapira, signed as a free transfer and bagged 28 goals in 32 games. Absolute quality. For St Pats too btw...

Yakult

Another player I forgot is Kevin (19yo). Cant remember he's team but it was a Spanish team.

Great playmaker who dominates the Championship league and just about can play at Premier league. Only 2mil and grows into a passing machine.

Dolph Starbeam

Kara is a very good signing, African player playing in Norway iirc, worth a look.

kronsington

Gonzalo Berseggio- fiery argentinian striker i signed for zenit- banged in the goals all season and provided plenty of assists as well

granty1892

Eden Hazard

may cost you £16m but has the potential to be a world class player

focus_mad

good to see a pats mean there!! I'm waiting for christmas for the full version but i have the demo..
You can get most of this youngsters on loan.
Try Jose Baxter
Jack Rodwell
Aidan White
James McCarthy

It really depends on what league and club you are in ya know?
The Liverpool reserves have a number of quality yougfella aswell as the Spanish League.

Gonzovision

Matej Delac, turns into a top class keeper, not sure how much he is available for.

Josh McEachran - 17 at the start of the game, fantastic midfielder.

Padkir

Neymar, brazilian striker, absolutely unreal!!

antomorro-sei

You can add Ronan Finn to the LOI list. You'd probably have to pay 100k-ish for him but he's worth every penny. I'd say he's probably good enough to play Championship in the game.

Yakult

God damn, cant edit the original post

bigron2109

Vagner Love-- Not exactly a goal Machine, but he is so man for the assists.So far this season, and im only half way through he has 8 assists.Picked him up for 5.5 mill.

David Luiz- Centre Defender or Left back..Picked him up for 4.7 mill.Excellent Long throw..

Luis Suarez-- Picked him up for 5.5 mill..Fantastic player..His value has risen to 10 mill..

Gonzovision

Strikers

Yaya Sanogo
David Babacar
Iker Munian
Vaclav Kadlec

All turn out to be World Class

Midfielders

Yann M'Vila
Javier Pastore
Paulo Henrique

Latter 2 turn out World Class

Defenders

Lucas Digne - World Class
Ryan Shawcross
Fabio Coentrou

Irishcrx

Pastore is magic....just magic, buy him. Best player in the world in my game 4 seasons in.

zimovain

Lads, je's just won me the champions league. Read on a random forum recently that he was a 'plant' player, as in, plays well and above his stats.

In his 5 seasons with me his average performance is 7.55.

Lads, as a drunken xmas tip, SIGN HIM!!!

Merry Xmas!!

IvySlayer

Yeah Shawcross is a rock!

zimovain

Lisandro Lopez=Goal machine.

Zapp Brannigan

Arturo Vidal - Picked him up in my game for 5 million cos he fell out with the coach at Bayern.

He's a beast!

Jonah42

Lads can anyone recommend a good striker for a struggling premier league team that can bang in the goals? Got a budget of around 3M.

You might be able to sign Yaya Sanogo. Young french striker from AJ Auxerre.

Kinetic^

GK - smithies. Great keeper, can be bought for about 1mil early on and will go on to be englands no.1.

Sponsored RYAN

kadlec ftw

Glico Man

Phil Jones of Blackburn

Words cannot describe how brilliant he is

Also, and I cannot rate him highly enough, and IF you can sign him... FM 09 & 10 legend, Toni Kroos of Bayern. Ridiculously difficult to sign due to his love for the club, but if you do, he is an absolute gem of a player.

Yakult

^Tried to sign Phil Jones, rejected my 20m bid. Maybe next year untill I unsettle him.

Its impossible to sign Kroos. Can never get him to sign a contract despite the club accepting the fee.

Yakult

If your looking for a poor mans Messi, theirs a young guy called Pablo Piatti playing for Almerìa. Primary postions are AML/AMC but can also play on the right and as a striker.

Frisbee

Javier Pastore is God.

Adam Rooney or Leigh Griffiths.

People should also sign Lucas, AM from Sao Paulo, Rafael Toloi who is a CB, Tom Cairney, CM from Hull.

Signed all 3 for my Manchester United team and Lucas and Cairney now start despite being 17 and 19 respectively.

This is funny, I used to play schoolboy football with Ronan Finn!

Temaz

Lisandro Lopez will get you 25+ goals a season. :cool:

tallaghtmick

this is for the feb update for champ manager 01/02

craig bellamy is unreal,great stats is unhappy at city so you can get him for 2 million.

G.K.

For FM2009:

Cesar Azpilicueta
Yuri Zhirkov
Federico Fazio
Mate Simao
Joao Paulo
Bruno (Brazilian GK)
Christian Zapata
Lulinha
Mo Sakho

Temaz

A bit obvious but Charlie Adam can be picked up for a few mil, well worth it.

Glico Man

Mario Gotze (AMC) Dortmund
Marko Marin (AML) Bremen
Mats Hummels (CB) Dortmund
Matej Delac (GK) Chelsea
Sebastien Corchia (RB) Le Mans
Jerome Roussillon (LB) Sochaux

Folester27

Kadlec? Serious young striker, and Kjaer is a serious CB for the future

krustydoyle

Mats Hummels, Phil Jones and Eden Hazard are all in my starting 11.. and there all lethal players..

who does Javier Pastore play for?

Palermo in Serie A.

SantryRed

If your lower league around LOI level, Jamil Adam is a must have. 75 league goals in 90 games. I'd say he has about 95 in 120 games overall since I signed him.

Who you playing with mate?

partyndbs

if your in the championship i recommend michael brown, soo good for building a team around at that level. gives you consistency and can score goals and make them.

Yakult

Šime Vrsaljko from Dinamo Zagreb.
Very good RB.

Sergio Araujo from Boca.
Great striker, similar to Benzema but just way way better in all aspects!!

Karl96

hazard is savage and neymar is good too, pastore is class but he costs between 30 and 40 million. iker muniain is decent as well, de gea is a great keeper for the future. All great investments for the future. Lucas from sao paulo in brazil and khouma babacar from fiorentina are good too
all in fm2011

krustydoyle

Well lads, i need a Left back so can someone recommend me a good one for decent money.. Thanks

What level club are you at? What sort of budget?

Its the 2014 season, im with chelsea and ive about 20 million to spend.
sorry i should of said earlier.. its just cole is getting on and i need to replace him. I was looking at this 19 year old from fiorentina but they wont sell.

Glico Man

Cissokho of Lyon, does/did a great job in my first game. Gets in on the assists and the odd goal.

Alex Sandro of Santos, excels from the age of 23/24 and is the Brazil #1 in my current game (2017)

Danny Wilson of Liverpool is excellent at LB. if you can afford him that is. His current value in my game is £40 million :eek:

Lucas Digne of Lille, becomes #1 French left back

Fabio Coentrao of Benfica, one of the best left sided players in the game

And last but not least is Chelsea's own Ryan Bertrand. Becomes one of the best left backs in the EPL.

Jack Robinson of Liverpool could be another option.

If the players aren't at the clubs I listed, either search for them or go their club's transfer history and look em up.

Dodo, think he was at Feyenoord when I bought him for about 8 million but can't remember what season that was, sorry!! All I know is that he was epic for me and I had bids of 25+ million coming in for him from Real and United within a year!!

tallaghtmick

davide santon of inter is a good full back both sides too.

im pretty sure roberto carlos will have retired and regened:D

Lord TSC

I'm in Leauge 2 playing as Rotterham and find Febian Brandy (Free agent, just released from Man Utd) is a shockingly great player. Apparently he prefers to sign for L1 people at first and he can be tricky enough to get into lower teams due to wage demands, but so far he's banged in 23 goals in 15 games for me as a poacher.

What a hero he was in FIFA10. Signed em with Accrington in L2 and he was in the CL winning team a few years later! Legend!

Gonna see is he available in FM now actually

antomorro-sei

He's with Luton so won't be signing him! He isn't as good as my best striker though, who's at a similar level...

Emmanuel Françoise, who was my POTY in Siere C2 which is like the equivilant of League 2 if I'm correct. He's class anyway!

Alain N'Kong (AMC), Julio Rossi (ST/AMRLC), Stefano Oliveri and Samir El Moussaoui (both centre halves) are all cracking players at that level if anyone wants to try sign em!
