Duttz Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I've recently picked up two very promising newgens (admittedly with the help of FM scout) from Bangladesh and Bhutan, there is also a player from Belize that plays for Parma who is going to be the best CB in the world. anyone know what the deal is with these players? is there a certain date when they are created? they don't have clubs and seem to appear randomly in the middle of the season. There was about 10 this season with pa 160+ but most of them just end up retiring because nobody knows they exist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duttz, I am speculating but I think that these players have such random nationalities that they never play at all so they find themselves retiring. Because of their nationalties they can never play in the big leagues and so they are never considered/found by scouts. I also thought that regens are regenerated the day after the national summary screen comes up so perhaps places like Bangledesh have what would be their national summary screen during the middle of the English season?

For all we know, there could be players with amazing potential IRL in Bhutan and Bangladesh, but without so much opportunity to play.. and they will probably in fact end up 'retiring' - i.e. giving up hoping to play for a living.

Digs_473 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 The best player I have seen out of an obscure nation would be this chap - http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk155/thechunkyboy/Phil_Houghton.jpg He was discovered by Leeds when he was 19, I signed him 1 year later for 60k after my scouts thought he would turn out half decent, and after a couple of loan seasons in Spain his attributes shot up drastically. He was ready to make his debut in my first team when he returned, at which point my chairman thought it wise to accept a £2.4 million offer from Chelsea for him. Which I was understandably unhappy about... So some of them do make it in the big leagues, they just need to be found first. I've tried signing a couple of newgens from little places like Belize/Montressat since then, but most fail to get a work permit and retire. Unfortunate really, since a few had fairly good PA's.

medievalist Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 This might actually be an important component of the regen quality problem, if good quality regens are spawning in obscure countries and therefore not becoming part of the game in large numbers.

Pio Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 that belize guy is pretty crazy and yes, good potential players from weird countries are generated, but they tend to retire rather quickly and disappear. the trick is to find them before they retire and snap them up, but you always have to keep looking players like this are also why i utilize trials a large amount. i play in the italian league where you can only sign 1 non-EU player from abroad per year, but this does not apply to trial contracts. Often times i'll take players on trial and other italian clubs will buy them, then at the end of the season i can buy them right back and circumvent that rule also note the ages and current abilities of these regens, it's one thing to find a potential star but you have to find him at a time where he can reach his potential.

Duttz Posted June 23, 2008 Author Share Posted June 23, 2008 I'm loving these players from weird countries coz I'm playing in Serbia where you can sign and play anyone you want! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDoul Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hmm, not sure about PA's but I'd agree that some of the best rated young players I have are from places like Martinique, Indonesia, Iran, New Zealand, Australia, Palestine etc... some of yours look even better tho.

This is true, I looked at a few of these kinds of players with FM Scout and quite a few had PA's of 160+, but most had very low CA so reaching that potential even if they were spotted and signed at a young age would be a struggle.
