mikenevo Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I'm hoping some of you can help me remember the best wonderkids from past football managers. First one that pops up for me is Freddy Adu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Morgan Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Off the top of my head, from CM99/00: Javier Saviola Tonton Zola Moukoko Kennedy Bakircioglu Zlatan Muslimovic Andri Sigporsson Simon Davies Matthew Etherington Sharbel Touma There were many more, but these were my 'go to' players that I would try and sign every time I started a new save. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkouv Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 kerlon and cesar delgado come to mind. Actually saw Delgado play irl (for Cruz Azul), seemed very good but was a flop when he moved to Europe from what I remember. John Fleck was another go-to name, though he turned out alright. Oskarsson was the best though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivetwelvepony Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 10 hours ago, SergeiG said: carlos fierro was a beast in FM12 Amusingly, FM keeps falling for Carlos Fierro. In both of my FM20 San Jose Earthquakes saves, he ended up developing into a beast, at least by MLS standards, and I ended up selling him to Premier League teams. As an aside, I may be the only person out there to do multiple San Jose Earthquakes saves in FM20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feddo Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I don't know if t really counts but I've had a save in 2008 with sheffield united where Billy Sharpe got a golden booth. I can't remember if his attributes where that good or he simply over achieved. But he was a lethal combo with the ageing Wayne Rooney, won a couple of CL's with them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
