During the last couple of seasons I have completely opted out of the hunt for the big names, but instead tried to scout and sign some unknown, very underrated, cheap yet very good players. However, all the players I am targeting have to be real ones, since I don't like having fake ones on my team.
I would like to share with you some of the very good siginings I have made:
DF:
David Luiz - can CB and both SBs, very quick, great crosses, very tall, good header
Leonardo Bonucci - great CB, also very quick, never beaten in the air
Davide Faraoni - awesome SB, plays both right & left, very quick, great crosses
Yoann Andreu - super quick SB (both sides), can also play CB, his crosses are precise as f***, it's ridiculous, very hard to shake off the ball, can go down the line with the ball end-to-end w/o a problem
James Tomkins - great SB, unbeatable in the air and thus a real force at corners etc., very quick too
MF:
Franck Songo'o - SMF (both sides), super quick, hard to knock off balance, great crosses
Alexandre Cuvillier - primarily used in LMF, very quick, nice crosses, can score out of nowhere
James Ledley (Leydon is his in-game name) - my new man in centre mid after Lampards retirement, you will not see much of him usually, but chances are that you will see his name on the scoresheet for a goal or an assist anyway
Enric Vallès Prat - super quick SMF, didn't get too many chances on my team since I preferred Songo'o, but he was extremly good when I played him
Eliaquim Mangala - rock solid DMF, there's no getting past him
On a side note: has any of you had Miglionico (typo) or Ortega on his team?
I had both of them in my youth team before this season started and they both very good. Miglionico (CB) was a 77 or so and reminded the scout of Mexes. He has very poor statistics given this overall rating, but he has a lot of cards. Ortega was a 74 or so and after one and a half months he's a 78 already although I only played him twice.
Do you guys know to level I can expect those guys to grow to and by what age?
