In the first of a series we are going to look at the wonderkids of Football Manager 2008 and how they are getting on in real life.
The first one is the defensive midfield sensation that is Éver Banega who starts the game at Boca Juniors and can be picked up for around £2.5 million if you get him early enough and is worth every penny.
Éver came through the youth ranks at Boca Juniors and it was not until he moved to the first team that he won international recognition, thanks to his fantastic passing average and a collection of great performances in the local league.
He made his professional debut in the 4-0 victory against Banfield on February 10, 2007. Just a few matches after making his debut he was a key player in the Boca side and was a firm fan favorite with his tireless running in midfield and tough tackling.
After making only 27 appearances for Boca Spanish side Valencia had seen enough of the young Argentinean and decided to stump up £13 million pounds to sign him in in January 2008.

You can sign absolutely no one for Derby County.. There was a game fault. Unless you put your disk threw a paper shreader, it works good as new then. Good luck gamer!

Typical Argentinian playmaker – great and passing and dictating tempo. Interesting he is good at defending as well. Can be as good as Veron Riquelme Aimar.

I'm sure there a quite a few players there that would do the business for you. Lulinha of Corinthians is a little belter and I'm sure he'd sign for Derby.
