GraemeHall Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I have not had the time to play much FM 2012 this year. But normally every year there are some stand out players that translate to being top players in real life. My question...What midfielders in the game could solve Man Utds midfielder (Central) problems? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrie Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Javi Martinez and Marek Hamsik (despite his truly criminally bad hair) spring to mind EDIT: And Andre Ayew Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Marek Hamsik, Yann M'vila/ Arturo Vidal. I also think Tiote would be pretty good in the United midfield as a holding midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemeHall Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Hamsik in CL though Vidal just signed for Juventus did he not? I like the look of Martinez IRL. What sort of price is on his head? 20 Million? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawrie Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Good shout on Javi Martinez. Being a United fan (not a good day to shout about that I know) I got very excited when we were linked with him in the summer. A true box to box player. Reminds me of Essien in his prime.... but also 6ft 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrie Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Hamsik in CL thoughVidal just signed for Juventus did he not? I like the look of Martinez IRL. What sort of price is on his head? 20 Million? I would think at least 20 yea, seem to remember reading that he has a €40 million release clause but i would think anything £25million+ would do it. Great player though. Very good in-game too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sort of price is on his head? 20 Million? Im not sure on hamsik me i really are't he was poor in world cup and i've seen him play at least 15 times or so now on espn and champions league and i think hes way over rated, there was a ex Italian player on espn few weeks back when napoli played cant remember who it was and he said hamsik as done nothing to merit is high reputation yet, his stats in fm are crazy i think, ive lowerd him in editor, hes got better stats then some of top strikers in game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smurf Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 If I started a FM game at United I'd sell every single midfielder. I'd bring in Snejder, Sissoko, M'villa, Neymar, Kadlec. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemeHall Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 I see Hamburg have bid for Shaqui IRL. Someone i was hoping United would be in for after his performances in CL.

Chicha_14 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Is he a CM? He's more of a AMC, watched a lot of him over the past 2 years and he's top quality, I would say he's in the mould of players like Silva, Modric and Iniesta. FERGIE SIGN HIM UP!!!

athos7 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Modric is the ultimate solution for Man Utd midfield, but of course Tottenham won't sell, and if they do put him on sale, Chelsea will get him first. Sneijder is the most likely, however I have my doubt about Dutchmen's survival in the physical EPL. Marvin Martin is a third choice for Man Utd.

He's improved IRL a lot but I don't think he's as good as he thinks he is. He tries some difficult things which don't work sometimes. I'd go for Moutinho, M'Villa and Hamsik.

But normally every year there are some stand out players that translate to being top players in real life.My question...What midfielders in the game could solve Man Utds midfielder (Central) problems? Haven't played much either, but I'm sticking my head in anyway. France and the Netherlands could be a good place to look. Always some good players there. Like others have said; M'Vila and Moussa Sissoko are good shouts. Should do well in a midfield duo, and you can also add a playmaker to make it a balanced trio. Christian Eriksen went to Wolfsburg in the first transfer window on my current save, for about £7m. Then you have good backup in Carrick, Anderson and Cleverley. With the attacking firepower ManU have, I'd also consider buying two holding midfielders and leave the attacking bit to the front four and your full backs. Perhaps a playmaker and a ballwinner, like Liverpool had with Alonso and Mascherano/Sissoko. Kevin Strootman from PSV is a player who has improved rapidly the last couple of years, and is now often a starter for the Netherlands' national team. Him and Tiote could be a good duo.

bloodzeed1 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 A cheap alternative attacking option would be Niko Kranjcar from Spurs. He's a very good player IMO and he's not happy at Spurs with not much game time. I dont think he would cost much and he can play anywhere in midfield and supporting a striker.

Lawteo Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 If ya looking at slightly long term and a cheaper option, loan Thiago from Barcelona.....remember to set his permanent move amount to somewhere around 16million pounds and have the option to sign him if he performs This is one great loan move I did when I played Arsenal in my 1st season having Wilshere out for almost the whole year, I made his move permanent for 16 million pounds in the next January Transfer window I recalled Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
