Who is that really good young Finnish striker?
The only one i heard of is Lauri Della Valle but don`t know if that`s the one...


Anyway here`s the list of some players that you can sign if you`re playing some lower team but there are also some expencive ones.I`ve found this on some FM forum...


GK

Igor AkinfeevGK - 20 - CSKA Moscow - £12m - Russian
"This will be one of the best keepers in the world as good in 08 as he was in 07"

Oscar Ustari
GK - 21 - Getafe
- 1.5m-2m - Argentinian
young and he always does great for me keeping clean sheets.

Andrea Consigli
Goalie - 20 - Atalanta - probably around £5million - Italian
"He's doing really well for me at Atalanta. I just got spanked 4-0 by AC Milan at home, but they had 23 shots on target and he got 10 out of 10 and man of the match even though he conceded 4!"

Artur Boruc
GK - 27 - Celtic - 2.7m - Polish
"This guy is pretty amazing even though he plays for celtic, he is by far their most consistent player and has bailed my defence out a few times"

Marek Stech
GK - 17 - West Ham - 300k (Compensation) - Czech
"Touted to be the next Buffon, He may make fans uneasy upon signing as he has a 'You are one stepping stone on the path to fame' Attitude"

Marcelo Grohe
GK - 20 - Gremio - 3.1M (release clause) - Brazilian/German
good young prospect, aerial ability needs improvement, but he should be capable backup for premier league teams, potential leading goalkeeper

Libas Arenas
Goalkeeper - 23? - Lazio - £2-4 mil - Colombian (i think)
"Quite a cheap goalkeeper but he is premiership quality and doesnt concede many"

Diego Benaglio
Goalkeeper - 23 - Nacional Da Madeira - 150k - Switzerland
"Good solid stats, back up for top for prem teams, first team for lower-mid table teams"

Marcelo
GK - 23 - Corinthians - £2 million - Brazil
"Worth it. Screenie"

Oier Olazabal
GK - 17 - Barcelona - 160k - Spanish
"Promising Goal-Keeper and could make it to the top 4 or back-up at least"

Doni
Goalkeeper - 26 - AS Roma - 8mil probably - Brazilian
I can't believe that he's improved by SI in this game.

Juan Pablo Carrizo
GK - 23 - River - 900K(summer 2009) - Argentinian
"A great keeper who gets better and better"


Defenders

Stefan Radu

"Great defender forall teams even though he is still at a young age."

Rafinha
DR/WBR - 21 - Schalke - £11m - Brazilian
"This right back is keeping gary neville out of my team, he is a very solid defender and also a very good backup right midfielder if you train him there."

Armand Traoré
DL/WBL - 17 - Arsenal - £4m - French
"Has the potential to be as good as Leighton Baines"

Sergey Ignashevich
D RC - 27 - CSKA Moscow - Free - Russian
The best free transfer you can get at the start of the game, is a rock at the back, loads of light blues, but you'll have to go for him quick as loads of clubs want him.

Vincent Kompany
CD - 21 - HSV - 8M-10M - belgian
a rock solid defender who never lets anybody get past him.

Domenico Criscito
CB - 20 - Juventus - Value at 4.5m - Italian
"Possibly the best prospect at juventus, in my game with them he is already by far and away the best defender, apart from maybe andrade"

Ezequiel Garay
CB - 20 - Racing - Valued at £5.75m but could cost a lot more. - Argentinian
Has great defensive stats for a player so young, bound to become one of the best on the game.

Miguel Veloso
CB/DMC - 21 - Sporting CP - I got him for £9m. - Portuguese
He looks like a very solid player with great technical stats.

Marcelo
DWBL,AML - 20(Not 100% sure) - Real Madrid - £5.500,000 (Release Clause) - Brazilian
Brilliant player if played left wing. Loves to take on players and beats them most of the time. Has great dribbling ability and puts in some vital crosses to assist the strikers. Also young so definitely a player for the future

Jelle Van Damme
DRLC - 21 - Anderlecht - £3,000,000? - Belgium
Good back-up defender to have. Very handy squad player and is cheap.

Anthony Vanden Borre
DRC,WBR,DM - 19 - Anderlecht - £2.500,000 - Belgium
Great performer, is a very versitile player. In my opinion I believe he is better suited to attacking rather than defending, he can be trained either way though.

Gareth Bale
DL - 18 - Tottenham - 10m - Welsh
he is very young and got bags of potential also he is a great defender .

Rob Jones
Central Defence - 27 - Hibernian - Around £800,000 - English
Great player for any championship teams or struggling premiership teams.

Darijo Srna
D/WB/M RL - 25 - Shakhtar Donetsk - £4M - Croatian
"World class utility player and great all-rounder. Every thing you can expect from a wide player - crossing, pace, technique and an incredible free kick."

David Pinter
DC,DM - 20 - Unknown - £20,00 - Hungarian
A cheap bargain for teams in League One and below, he possess a great defensive talent and is a key player who will develop greatly.

Breno
DC- 17 - Sau Paulo - £2,500,000 - Brazilian
Amazing young defender, can't leave Brazil until Jan 08, but by the second season he is ready for the Premiership.

Sylvain Monsoreau
DLC - 26 - Monaco - 4M - French
good solid DLC, drafted him into my villa side to cover DC and start at DL, rarely makes defensive errors

Ryan Taylor
D/WB/MR - 21? - Wigan - 5M - board will accept on managers behalf - English
Potential star and quite solid already, good utility value, as he plays both fullback and wing

Jack Hobbs
DC- 18- Liverpool- 475,000k- English
Young defender with a lot of potential. Could become next John Terry or Rio Ferdinand.

Karl Svensson
DC - 23 - Caen - 2-4 Mil - Sweden
Bought to replace Yobo at Everton, been amazing since joining

Midfielders:-

Luis Jimenez
AMC - 23 - Termana - £2 million - Chilean
"Great young player with high stats in dribbling, first touch, technique, passing and most mental stats"

Cesc Fabregas
MC - 20 - Arsenal - 15m-20m - Spanish
in my eyes he is the best central midfielder on the game.

Ever Banega

Rafael Van der Vaart
Midfielder - 24 - HSV - 12-15million - Dutch
This guy is a legend, if used right he will bang goals in for fun. Great vision to slot the perfect through ball in and not a bad price too. VERY NICE!!!

Lorik Cana
Defensive Midfielder - 24 - Olympique de Marseille - £8.75M - Albanian
"Cana is a great defensive midfielder with amazing mental stats. Keeps working for a full ninety minutes and giving your attackers every opportunity to do whatever they want. Cana will be there to do the dirty jobs."

Derek Boateng
MC - 24 - B. Jerusalem - 500-700K - Ghananian (needs WP)
very nice at the price, good, creative MC who should slot into any non-top 4 midfield in the premier league, insanely popular at the start (up to 30 clubs want him)

Alberto Zapater
Defensive Midfielder - 22 - Real Zaragoza - 7mill release clause - Spanish
Solid defensive midfielder with good work rate and stamina, sits back and allows attacking players to advance but nips in with the odd match winner too. Not bad for a 7 million release clause.
