tak Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 OK let us talk about something serious now. Have you noticed the complete absence of quality fullbacks as the game progresses? You can find lots of players for positions like AMC, DMC, DC and ST. But DR or DL? The best one will have about 75% positional rating. Why is that?

Ccllnply2 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 its your tactics Lol! @OP: Yeah, I've noticed that too, the vast majority of players with potential at the start of the game are a forward of some sort Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomer Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I'm having trouble finding good wingers too. I have a few decent fullbacks but nothing to write home about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crichton Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 you say you find lots for the central positions retrain a CB? or perhaps a DMC? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aston_martin Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Tbh, there aren't that many good LB/RB in real life. Anyway, in regard to the actual game, I have the opposite problem. Good full backs are there in abundance (although there aren't many world class ones) but the central areas, paticularly the CD/DM/CM/AM is seeing a distinct lack of good players. Plently of good strikers though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I'm finding the same, all the brilliant players I'm finding are for central positions. This is probably the best looking young full back I've found. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomer Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Tbh, there aren't that many good LB/RB in real life. I was thinking the same thing. Still, it would be nice to have some good ones coming through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
backpackant Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I've found an abundance of full-backs. Too many probably. Mostly Brazillian, strangely enough. Who admittedly aren't too good at tackling. I struggle to find right-wingers, so maybe I should buy a few full-backs and retrain them. Must be individual experiences.

Dale Gribble Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I have two young regen fullbacks, Nunez and Granier, who are my first choice for Arsenal despite only being 18/19. Nunez is keeping out Sagna, only 3rd season in too. I'll post screenshots when I'm back on my computer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradmonk Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I've managed to fine ONE good full back, poential of 4 stars. Struggling for right wingers too. MILLIONS of left wingers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oypus Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I have one, though primarily a CB, can also play LB/LWB. He has a very high PA. I only checked because my scouts said he wasn't that good, but to me he appeared very good, for his young age of course. Then Chelsea signed a N. Irish one who has better stats than Bosingwa at age 18 or so. And there was an Argentinian one who refuses to leave Argentina. (Really. I, Barcelona, Arsenal, R. Madrid, and I think Chelsea all offered him contracts, and he refused all of them to go play at River Plate or Boca Juniors, can't remember which.) So that makes 3 in about 3 years, which seems a bit high tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blab Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 In my game there is nothing but quality regen fullbacks! There is a lack of world-class center backs due to poor positioning and jumping, and world class attacking midfielders or wingers are also rare because of poor off the ball attribute. Here are some regen fullbacks from my game http://i50.tinypic.com/9a7epi.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/2rws4zd.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/4iog14.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/zk4rux.jpg http://i48.tinypic.com/2cwshlg.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafuge Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Are you going to train him to play on the left? Bit strange he's left only footed but a right sided player. It is a bit odd, but my left back is a lot better than my right back, so I could really do with this kid making it as a right back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that? yes.. with my 2015-2016 save i was trying to replace my dr.. and best i could find was my REGEN that i had? i was like you cant be serious.. regen of 175 pa.. yes he will reach it.. but thats terrible.. and he was like only one..

Hershie Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Had a great DR/WBR and a WBL on my Inter save. The WBL was actually a retrained AML, but in the first few seasons he was the best regen I'd found. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blurps11 Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I'm finding the same, all the brilliant players I'm finding are for central positions.This is probably the best looking young full back I've found. Diego Renan, Gonzalo Castro, Cuadrado, Beck, Fanchone, Schwaab, Helan, Opare, Santon, Bale, N'Koulou, Corchia are just a couple young lateral defenders off the top of my head. Given a good PA roll for those with -potentials and proper development they all can turn out top quality players. The ones listed also cover a variety of roles and price ranges. Add the regens after two or three seasons in and there are arguably more really good prospects in game than in real life. Good fullbacks are very very rare.

FernandoCJ Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I suppose that's true. I have Lahm and Srna for my Man City left and right backs. Lahm has been particularly impressive, but Srna is no longer as good as he was in FM 2009. Also I have been struggling to find right attacking midfielders as well except Ronaldo and Messi. Ribery and Modric are fairly good but not particularly great at the right flank. I guess I might have to buy Messi next year after I win the UCL.

Depending on what the specific role of your AMR is, both can be superb. Diego Renan would be an outstanding prospect for a more withdrawn right midfielder role, but very few managers use that these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
