Getting a player

What things do you have to take into consideration when buying a player?

I only sign them if they wear white boots....

Really? Wow, why?

It make them run faster.

Red ones are notorious for the laces getting tangled up, making the player fall over. I would never sign a player with red boots.

Nah I reckon gold boots are a must for me to sign players as the sun glistens off the gold and shines right into the opponents eyes, its a killer I tell ya :|

Barry, It depends on the player position

a duplicate OP from one a few threads down thats got closed

Yeah for us to help you we need abit more info

for me it's all about the age

perfect one would be under 25 player..pick them up to your team and train him to achieve greatness

my perfect example: i pick up Balotelli in my 1st season of my Arsenal team for a mere 14 million...2 seasons nw,won the Golden Boot for the premier league twice,the best player in ECC twice,won his first cap on Italy and nw in his 20+ caps and still running good,star plyer in my team and nw he's worth 40 million pound

i took him off the miserable unsettle life in Inter and i turn him into superstar..

it's all bout patience though:rolleyes:

In no particular order:

1. The relevant attributes.

2. Scout reports (for their potential).

3. Their playing history for ratings, goals scored etc.

4. Whether they're one-footed or not (being strong in both feet or either-footed makes them play better than their attributes suggest).

5. Adaptability. This is a hidden attribute but an idea can be gained by lookingat their player history and seeing how they've fared in foreign countries/leagues and in your club's league.

I just signed a 16 yo just because he was 16 and I like his name.

I also signed a player called Pele because I could.

i believe pourtsmouth have signed someone called pele, and are also taking an interest in sunny, who was a wonderkid for me in fm08. i look for all the 14 year olds, their development is completely in your hands

Portsmouth and West Brom have a Pele on the books now.

I need a good CB, RB and keeper. Any sugestions on what i need to look for?

apart from the obvious talents, It really should depend on what system you play and whether your buying a player to fit that system or gonna change your system to accomidate the player.

I personally always buy players to fit into my system.

if they had gold boots i dare say they would hardly beable to walk let alone run, or do you mean gol din colour
