Will the irish players be included? my only fault last time was that none of irelands top goalscorers where in it, John Aldridge (was english) Niall Quinn, Frank Stapleton, Don Givens, Tony Cascarino wern't in it. so it left my ireland team rather short up front:(

Shay Given

Packie Bonnar

RB:

Steve Finnan

Denis Irwin

Gary Kelly

LB:

Steve Staunton

Ian Harte

Mark Lawrenson

CB:

Paul McGrath

David O'Lerary

Liam Brady

CM:

Roy Keane

John Giles

Niall Quinn

Tony Cascarino

I know alot of players but id love to see how good irelands greatest 11 compared to other countrys

[timur316]

Also is Poul Nielsen in the game the greatest goals per game player in international football. he scored 52 goals in 38 games for denmark and 276 goals for Kjøbenhavns Boldklub in 201 games.

Kb ar in the tier 5 of danish football now so not sure where you'd put him

[supernovadragon]

I have just come across this. I am so looking forward to this. I won't ask when it's out as others have already asked. I will ask though what the Man Utd squad looks like? Will Eric Cantona feature?

[Fenech]

I have just come across this. I am so looking forward to this. I won't ask when it's out as others have already asked. I will ask though what the Man Utd squad looks like? Will Eric Cantona feature?

I am looking to get this out as soon as possible. I am really looking forward to this too. Eric Cantona is 24 at Marseille however he would want to join Man U, should you choose to target him.

This is the Man United team so far, however please note that it is still subject to changes:

1) Cristiano Ronaldo

2) George Best

3) Martin Buchan

4) Ryan Giggs

5) Bobby Charlton

6) Dennis Law

7) Johnny Carey

8) Roger Byrne

9) Bill Foulkes

10) Duncan Edwards

11) Paul Scholes

12) Harry Gregg

13) Wayne Rooney

14) Nobby Stiles

15) David Beckham

16) Gary Neville

17) Alex Stepney

18) Bryan Kidd

19) Chris Smalling

20) Paul McGrath

21) Arthur Albiston

22) Dennis Viollet

23) Mark Hughes

24) ola gunnar Solskjaer

25) danny welbeck

26) shay brennan

27) darren fletcher

28) marcus rashford

* Remember this is the Ultimate Legends and Stars (not just legends) and this ranges from 1880 to the present day which is why some present day players might still be in there but once we get close to release date, i will have a much better idea of the final squads.

Peter Schmeichel – Era: 1990’s - I mean it's a great shout and of course a man u legend but he joins man u at 28, let's enjoy a bit more of this fella, so he's 24 at Brondby

Edwin van der Sar - This guy doesn't join man u until he is 35. again lets enjoy a bit more of this fella, he is 23 at Ajax.

Gary Neville - IN

Roger Byrne - IN

Bill Foulkes - IN

Jaap Stam - He joins man u at 26 but he joins PSV at 24, he plays as many games for PSV as he does for man u but scores 10 more goals for PSV, and he falls out with ferguson so he is 24 at PSV.

Dennis Irwin - I had this guy as 22 at Oldham which is a fair shout, a bit younger and played over 100 games for Oldham, but i think oldham will struggle to pay his wages and he player alot more games for man u, doesnt join them till 25 but i can live with that. So he is now 25 at Man U.

Nemanja Vidic - Similar story with this guy, had him a little younger at spartak moscow but only played a handful of games for them, he joins man u at 25 and i can live with that so he is at Man u at 25

Johnny Carey - IN

Charlie Roberts - I will have a look at this player and he may well be IN, i need to do some research first.

Duncan Edwards - IN

Bobby Charlton - IN

Ryan Giggs - IN

Bryan Robson - Debatable - a west brom youth but he joins man u at 24, he is a man u legend. now im thinking that man u might be too strong and i want a bit of competition in the league! but ok he is now IN - 24 at man U.

Roy Keane - I have had this debate before, he is nottingham forest and belongs to Brian Clough, massive fall out with ferguson and also has said he prefers Clough and Clough is not the kind of person you want to get on the wrong side of and neither is keane for that matter, so you can't have him!

Paul Scholes - IN

George Best - IN but probably pissed

Dennis Law - IN

Éric Cantona - 24 at Marseille, i don't know why, he could be 26 at man u but just want to have him at 24. he is french and i am wary of making man u too strong.

Ruud van Nistelrooy - 22 at PSV or 25 at Man U, had an incredible record for PSV and need to give Ajax total football team some competition.

Wayne Rooney - IN

Billy Meredith - Sorry you can't have him, he played just as many games for City and was at City before United, He is a manchester legend but I am giving him to City.

Mark Hughes - IN

It will be released in July... I can't give an exact day yet. But it is coming soon. It will be well worth the wait.

[Weezer]

Looking forward to this. Any teasers about the Sheffield Wednesday squad?

Had great fun with this in the 2014 version. I think the squad you used there was pretty much perfect. I know he's too old to be considered for us in this DB but may I also ask where Chris Waddle ended up?

Sheffield Wednesday will have a great squad very similar to last time and I will be posting the squads here prior to release! Chris Waddle is 24 at Newcastle United. However he does have Sheffield Wed as one of his favourite clubs so he might want to go there.

[Bittah Dreamer]

Just wondering how far away this is approx. Was about to start a new game - close enough for me to wait, or should i just proceed.

[aveago]

Roughly how many legends are in the database?

It will be released this month, that's as much as I can say at the moment

[Fenech]

Roughly how many legends and stars are in the database?

at least 1500 legends so far. i can't give the exact number at the moment but its the most detailed and in-depth legends database ever made.

Plus the 100 top legends for every conceivable playing position since 1888 according to FIFA

including legendary managers as well.

Fantastic.

One thing, do you think Brian Clough should be a player manager? his playing record is as phenomenal as his managerial one.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Clough

The Guarantee of the Ultimate Legends is that every player who is at a club, is at the club they were when they were that precise age and at the precise ability / potential they were when they were that age.... and it is all coded mathematically to perfection based on heavy research and historical records. Now i know Brian Clough was a phenomenal player albeit struck down early by injury, and we all know that he was an outstanding manager, probably the greatest this country has ever had, no one takes a club like derby to the championship and wins back to back European cups with Nottingham forest. So he can't be a Player Manager because this is a realistic legends and stars database and he was never a player manager, nor did he play and manage at the same clubs, so its practically impossible, so I have had to come to a choice as to whether he is a player or a manager, and in a new age world where we have every living star and legend back from 1888, he would be an amazing player but when you consider that back in those early days, teams shaped up in a 2-3-5 formations, there were many amazing legend and stars strikers who are coming back, and brian would prob be lost amongst them, up there with them, but not so much in the limelight, whereas as a manager, he is so much more needed to manage these players, and that is why i chose for him to manage nottingham forest who have a full team of legends and stars playing for them. but it is a great point, i did give it much thought, and i think brian himself would have chosen to be a manager back in his prime especially as he can renew his great rivalry with don revie and his vendetta against the dirty leeds team, both of which are back again as well.

[Fenech]

Good Point, every other player on that list is in it...

The strikers you mentioned will be in it this time, on the john Aldridge point, he was born in England and this time he will be playing for Ireland...

[Fenech]

Charlie Roberts - I will have a look at this player and he may well be IN, i need to do some research first

http://spartacus-educational.com/MANUrobertsC.htm

Thanks mate, I will use this is my research.

[ganstaleex]

[timur316]

[Fenech]

Сan you help? I also did the previous year, a similar update , I'm home, and I have a lot of spare time

Hi, thanks for the offer, I don't need any help at the moment. It is close to release now. the last one i did was in 2014 and this is going to be alot better mainly due to advances in the editor since then. If i think of anything, i will let you know.

[Fenech]

sweet thats awesome what about poul nielson?

and i cant wait i know its gonna be great been waiting since fm14 for a new one of these:)

Yes Poul Nielsen will be in this one too.

[ganstaleex]

another question, will be young players such as hector bellerin and pol pogba?

[Fenech]

Yes they will be in it.

[ganstaleex]

Yes they will be in it.

just when you released in 2014 that they were not there , it is not fun to play was , at the moment I am also doing an update of legends , but it is modest in your

[Fenech]

Yes, this will be better than 2014 was, more legends and stars, including more of today's players so hopefully it will be even more fun to play. Obviously it is the best legends and stars from 1880 - 2016 so i am not too fussed if i miss one or two of todays younger players out but I will endeavour to ensure that i get the best ones in there. Also if you need any help or advice, let me know

[izagooner]

Fenech was just wondering about Alex James is he still 28 at Arsenal or have you made him younger at either Raith Rovers or PNE ?

[izagooner]

Also have you done the Preston Invincibles ?

[Fenech]

Fenech was just wondering about Alex James is he still 28 at Arsenal or have you made him younger at either Raith Rovers or PNE ?

Alex James is 24 at Preston North End.

[Fenech]

Also have you done the Preston Invincibles ?

At this stage i have not done the Preston invincible but they are high on my list and they may well be there when the game is released. I have done the research. It all depends on when i finish the coding of the game, because ideally i want this out sooner rather than later this month, so if they are not out initially, Preston invincibles will be there in the next update.

but they do have Tom Finney and Alex James so that's a start!

[izagooner]

cool looking forward to the release will leave you to it don't want to slow you down

[Fenech]

cool looking forward to the release will leave you to it don't want to slow you down

I'm working around the clock to get this out, these comments dont slow me down, if anything they keep me going... and they are quite helpful so feel free to keep on at me! If i do take a little longer to respond, then i am probably just working on some research or doing some work in the editor.
