Dale Gribble Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 FM/CM successfully predicted Kallstrom and Ibrahimovic, which was pretty nifty. Bakircioglu never reached dizzying fame though:( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
av3ry Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Helder Postiga - If only his impact in England was anything like that on CM 03/04. Dean Marney - Class on CM4 but aint nothing special in real life. Michael Chopra - I could get him to score regularly on CM4, but he dont score many for cardiff Daniel Braathen - CM4 Johan Elmander - That was a succesful prediction, hes done well at Bolton Andrea Isaksson - Very good Goalkeeper on CM4, but couldnt get in the Man City team even before they were taken over by billionaires. Kasper Schmeichel - Another one who was good on the old CMs, but cant get into any top teams. Sanli Tuncay - Weird how my Champ manager game managed to predict his move to Middlesbrough 3 years before it happened, but he was unbelievable on CM4.

VillaSmith Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 what ever happened to Sindre Loe Bing?? Norweigan that could play anywhere and had 20s pretty much all round!! I think I heard he was in a car crash but since FM06 or FM07 i've never seen him on any FMs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenArsenal Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Yes, Giovanni dos Santos is still young and could still improve, but to go from Barcelona to Ipswich in less than two seasons seems like a big drop. To think he was in the same team as the likes of Lionel Messi and Bojan, who have gone on to greater things. I do hope I am proved wrong though, and that he lives up to his potential.

b_grzelak Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 How about Dawid Janczyk? He was quite a bargain and a good player in 07/08, now he comes of the bench for Lokeren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raakjaer Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Emil Debski in CM 01/02 Striker. He was nothing in real life, but he was in charge of sending player attributes to CM from his club, and then he made him self very, very good, lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManuCelt Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Kleberson...absolutely god like for me in championship manager...used to score from 30 yards regularly Thought he was gona be a big star for Man Utd but we all know what happened there...haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kashmirshazad Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Anyone know what happened to tonton Zola Moukoko? A legendary name, and a legendary player on the old CM;s. Matteo Brighi was a good player too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITFC 1 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Gio Dos Santos Just signed for my club, Ipswich Town,im over the moon to be honest, I just hope to see him in action tonight against Burnley, and also hope, that over the last 9 games of the season, he can provide what we need for our play-off push lets just hope he lives up to all the hype GIO GIO GIO But as someone else has said, what on earth has happened to Lulinha :O? signed him for my QPR team on FM08 for his £8million pound release clause, and, well, became a legend really, but, on fm09? hes poor? !!!

Cheeks Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 My all time favourite was probably Anatoli Todorov, he was simply amazing. When combined with the Diablo tactic he scored like 100 goals a season lol. Could have been cm4? In the older games I've been fond of Cherno Samba he always turned out brilliant, Sherman Cardenas, Daniel Andersson, Leobang Mokoena, Charles-Andre Doudin. Andersson is the only one I've actually heard of irl and he's not that good, but in one of the older games he was the biggest steal of all time. More recently Federico Fazio is simply amazing, i've never actually watched him irl but he is my must buy in fm09 and was in 08 aswell. He was much cheaper but just as good in previous years, only younger so more time to develop. There have been plenty along the way who were desparately overrated but the names just don't come to me at the moment. I'm thinking 07 where there was Eddie Johnson, some scandanavian kid who could play ANY position on the park, Dalla Valle (who could still be anything), some Swedish targetman who seems to have disappeared that was a young gun, Eduardo Ratinho... man this thread brings back memories.

Lot's of my faves in there. Cardenas is still only about 19, him and Guarin were my favourite midfield pairing on fm05/06. The scandanavian kid apparently paid some researcher to give him those stats.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinaldo Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Marcelo, who has become great, signed for £5.5 million from Fluminense Leyrielton, I believe from Goais, quite cheap, became very good but I believe is still in Brazil (Though has time on his side) Leroy Fer, from Feyenoord, good player, still in Holland Eduardo Rubio, used to sign cheap, good winger, on loan at Basel now Some class players I'd sign on FM2007 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faure Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I think he's retired, and doing some charity work in Nigeria. Ibrahima Bakayoko (born December 31, 1976 in Seguela) is a striker for the Côte d'Ivoire. He Plays for PAOK. On June 19, 2008 he joined PAOK for a year.Bakayoko is a former international for Côte d'Ivoire. He made his first appearance for The Elephants in 1996.

50_kwache Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Mark Smith was great for those that remember Champ Man in the mid 90s. Can't remember which one exactly, (perhaps CM 96/97? correct me if i'm wrong). Could be picked up from Bristol Rovers for a pittance and was the bedrock of my Liverpool defence for a decade - where is he now? Also on CM 97/98 Andy O'brien was a defensive rock with over 100 caps who captained club and country, and now an average slightly error prone prem defender.

ssestig Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 some blasts form the past there....goign back even further, I give you sol campbell as a 40 goal a year striker..Darren Eadie for 50k taking the mick out of every defence in the game, Mark Flatts an england regular, or a bit later on, I signed robert taylor from brentforf...him neil, lennon, danny murphy and a lleft back called jens todt were my attacking maistros for arsenal in 96/97...taylor got like 90 goals in a season...
