Dirkjan Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I was wondering. The talents who turned out to be world class players in CM-versions between, let's say 2000 and 2004... Did they really become big players? This could be fun . Does anyone has the names? Are there lists of former versions '-9' and '-10' players? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomit Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 If you mean young(ish) talents from CM 01/02, CM 3, CM 4 that turned into world class players, or regularly plays for one of the world's big teams: Darren Fletcher - Arjen Robben - Zlatan Ibrahimovic - Fernando Torres - Rafael van der Vaart - Christian Chivu - Kaka ... just out of the top of my head. Quite a few others turned into quite good players, who now play in one of the top 5 leagues in the world. And of course there was quite a few players that was not considered great talents in CM 01/02, but that became real life world class players anyway. Ronaldinho for example - hardly noticed in CM 01/02, but was voted world's best player in .... what year was it? My best memories are of To Madeira, of course - a completely made-up player that you could find in a obscure portuguese club, but if you signed him (for about 5p), at any level, you were guaranteed 30+ goals a season. At least. But maybe that was CM '99 ... don't remember. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To Madeira was indeed in CM 01/02, he was created by a Portuguese researcher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chestermike Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Maxim Tsigalko, now that brings back some memories, he once scored 60 goals in 1 season for me. Anyone else remember Justin Georcelin who started as a 16 year old from Northampton? Always bought him, on one go he finished with over 800 games and over 500 goals when he retired.

iAmGory Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Sherman Cardenas? or was he on a latter FM? Also Anthony Vanden Borre. 2006 IIRC, may have been 2007. Signed him for Forest and he became a beast. Having said that, they roughly predicted Lewandowski too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nocuous Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I remember Wayne Rooney (at Everton) was pretty mediocre in CM01/02.

dalima Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Emmanuel Olisadebe was a beast in my team. In reality.. his career went downhill midway through his stint at Panathinaikos and became a completely anonymous player for various low level teams.
