I’ve invested/wasted several hours of my life coming to terms with Football Manager 2008 (or Worldwide Soccer Manager) and have identified the following players as stars of the future:
The first grouping have the potential to be the best of the best and if you click the link on their name that will take you to a profile of how they are getting on in real life (these are still being created so bare with me) :
- Aaron – Valencia
- Alexandre Pato – AC Milan
- Anderson – Man Utd
- Banega – Boca
- Bojan – Barcelona
- Dos Santos – Barcelona
- Sebastian Giovinco – Juventus
- Guardado – Deportivo
- Lulinha – Corinthians
- Saivet – Bordeaux
- Ustari – Getafe
- Vela – Arsenal
This second grouping of future stars have the potential to be very, very good:
- Babel – Liverpool
- Jourdren – Montpellier
- Edwards – Millwall
- Hazard – Lille
- Bouzanis – Liverpool
- Johnson – Man City
- Camucho – At. Madrid
I’ll keep this list updated as I discover new ones and feel free to add your own in the comments.
Thanks for reading and I’d really like to point you in the direction of my Football Manager 2009 to get your thoughts on what you would like to see in Football Manager 2009

you should all sign andriy vorbey he is a ukrainian striker i signed him for liverpool and he scored 26 goals and 17 assistes in 32 games and it was his first season he plays well with , torres, voronin and zltan ibrahimovic who is also a good signing andriy vorbey will on cost you 2.5 million by zltan ibrahimovic will cost you about 42.5 miliion but they are both worth evry penny.
KEVIN MONNET-PAQUET. 20 years old from RC LENS for just £3 million.
Has potential to become leading premier league striker!
Vantaggaito is a great guy signed him for man-utd for 2.9mil now the hammers want him for 20mil
buy adrien he turns out sik and if u a league 1 or championship get david thompson on a free but up his salery from what he wants cus the big teams cum in for him
buy giovinco! seriously he has the potential to become as good or better than messi
A really good player to sign if your in The Championship or even in the BLue square prem is AGUSTIN DELGADO guranteed without a doubt to score at least 40 goals in first season. Hes old and maybe only good to use for 2 seasons but with the amount of goals he scores he is the perfect tool to get promoted quickly
All of you it’s okay you come with potential stars, buy i will never buy any of those – becuase some young talents Differs from game to game.
Etc. In one game Carlos vela had a potential on 194 out of 200 and he became as good as thierry. in that same game henry saivet had potential on 155 and became as good as, hmm well who has that potential – but none of the bigger clubs wanted him
Though in my next game carlos vela’s potential was 165 and henry saivets potential was 192 – So it differs!

MUST BUY BALOTELLI FROM INTER MILAN !! BEST PLAYER ON THE GAME
I am Shrewsbury Town, who start in League 2 expecting mid table, and I got promoted in the first season. In my 3rd season as manager now, I have a few recommendations for all managing in League 1/League 2. Check out these players:
Name: Adam Legzdins
Position: Goalkeeper
Team started with: Birmingham City
Age: 20
Value: WAS £20k/ NOW £35k
Price Paid: £18k
Legzdins is definitely worth the money. A great goalkeeper who i signed January 08.
Name: Stephen Ward
Position: AML/FC
Team started with: Wolverhampton Wanderers
Age: 22
Value: WAS £200k/ NOW £180k
Price Paid: £250k
Signed him before my 1st season in League 1 because I had Stuart Nicholson on loan the season before who scored 39 goals in 44 games. He wasn’t as good as Nicholson, still a great striker though.
Name: Robbie Threlfall
Position: DL
Team started with: Liverpool
Age: 18
Value: WAS £2k/ NOW £10k
Price Paid: FREE TRANSFER
A solid left back who I had on loan in my League 2 season and signed for my League 1 campaign and is a main part of my defence.
Name: Marc Laird
Position: MC
Team started with: Manchester City
Age: 21
Value: WAS £5k/ NOW £22k
Price Paid: FREE TRANSFER
Marc Laird was one of my first signings for Shrewsbury and he has shined. I signed him as a back up player but he ended up taking the first team spot after many good performances off the bench. Ok, he plays on the bench now I’ve got promoted and brought other midfielders, but he is still a great impact player off the bench for me.
Name: Jack Compton
Position: AML/ST
Team started with: West Brom
Age: 19
Value: WAS £100k/ NOW £875k
Price Paid: ON LOAN
In 37 matches he played in League 1 for me, he scored 4 goals and had 17 assists. A top quality winger that is a premiership star for the future.
I hope you consider the above players and I hope they do as well for you as they have for me
i may have just not seen them but two players that have been fantastic 4 me every time i have played this game are; Bernardo (MC) and guilherme (AMC/FC) both are at cruzio in brazil. Bernardo can be bought in the first season for £950k as a minimum release clause and turns out to be as good or better than stevie gerrard and lampard. the only problem with guilherme is that if you are playing as an english team you may not get a work permit and can cost £10m but is absoloutly fantastic since you can play him as a striker or as a supporting AMC.
Sighn Rok Kronoveter from Dariva in Slovenia… scored 30 goals in his first season for Hearts and I came 1st in the SPL
also Calin Cristea (Romanian)
The best player i have found on the game is Diego Buonanotte cost £150k at the beginning of the game from River Plate. i play him AMC and he is just amazing. set him as corner taker, find your two best headerers of the ball ball usually defenders and set one as attack near post and one to challenge keeper. He will get an assist every game from then on. In my second season he had 72 assist in 45 games and my Naldo my defender was second in top goal scorers in the prem!!!
I found out a good formation for Chelsea its 4-1-1-2-2 the attacking wingers runnin forward the DMC the full backs runnin forward 1 space and good players to buy are:
Zlatan ibrahimovic
Diego (play 4 werner brenen)
Pato
Andrey Arshavin
Carlos Idrris Kameni
Theo Walcott
Fernando Gago
Kaka
and the dentinho, sergio mota,
thiago neves,
honda,
thiago carleto,
tales,
willian,
perrin hendrix,
abdus ibhraim,
lucas,
sankharé,
guilherme,
bernardo,
miranda,
alex silva,

Hello ! I have started a seson with Corvinul Hunedoara, Romania, second league. 1 st seson won promotion, second seson finish 2-nd in first league and play in UCL in third seson where i finished third after barca and bayern, and beat barca 2-0 and slavia praga 4-0 and 1-1. The secret, i thinck , is a good strategy , never tell players to do more than they can and try to keep the same players for more years.
Verry good players : janukiewic (gk from poland- into national team) , defenders : Samardzic (Maribor – into national team slovenia) Kasperkiewicz, Pavlyucech(into national team of belarus – Belarus ) ,
Balseca (Ecuador), Latkowsky (Poland), Zamalagambetov (Kazac),
Middfielders : Calin Cristea, Komazec(great player), Ramiro Flores(Ecuador), Celso Borges (Costa R,), Vasilache(Romanian), Mihai Roman , Chipciu(kind of wonderkid), Coralic (National team Slovenia)
Strikers: Matej Vracko (31 goals in 30 games – national team), Suyumagambetov (Great pace – go in national team kazak).
Try them, great players for little teams who want to become big
if u buy scott sinclire from shelsea to play on the left wing and buy gabriel torje to play on the right wing that’s the best wing play i have ever seen, i bought gabriel torje to everton b4 and i bought him for 750k at the end of the first season with everton he was a wonderkid and worth 8.5million for a 18 year old. worth buying them both.

yilmaz eser about 6 seasons is by far the best player i have ever seen in the game. trust me i bought him for under 3 million n sold him fo 58 million
Best players to buy. i had a season with newcastle united i bought sergio aguero for 19.5 million part exchange with obafemi martins. at the end of the season he scored 31 goals ( this was his first season) but he got pipped at the end by wayne rooney who got 32 goals but i finished the season in 2nd place and i won the fa cup and the league cup. and a few more players to buy is arshavin, ever banega, goran pandev, ochoa(goalie), garay, dani alves and others i can’t remember. comment if this works for you.
if you want a amazing striker for 35million then buy Diego Milito from zaragoza in the spanish league i bought him in my first season and he got 32 goals in 40 games with 16 assists pretty much a striker with everything
