No, I meant Ousmane DIAKITÉ, currently on loan from Salzburg to Altach. Koita is also a massive talent (seen him against my Italy at U20 World Cup) but he just played 77 minutes in Austrian Bundesliga, with 2 goals.

Continuance of transfers as the team reveals itself. TRANSFER 16: Yan Valery 20/82 comes in from Southampton as our second choice rb for £3.1 million. TRANSFER 17:Sixteen year old Ryan Cherki 16/67 arrives for £180k from Lyon. TRANSFER 18: Another sixteen year old Naci Univar 16/67arrives from Ajax for £519k. TRANSFER 19: The oldest signing is 28yold Bartosz Salamon 28/85 who arrives on a cut-price £1.8 million under the free system. TRANSFER 20: Another oldish signing compared to the average comes in from Lecce in the shape of Zan Majer 27/80. TRANSFER 21: Another prospect here in the shape of Wout Burger 18/73 at the modest price of £445k. TRANSFER 22: Phil Foden 19/85. Paid £5.1 million over price for him but he is awesome. TRANSFER 23: Matty Longstaff 19/73 for £479k.

I'm certain it will be after January because in the last changes B.Fernades went up to a 90 on the 03/02/2019, and A.Grimaldo went up to 89 on the 04/02/2019.

If you have enough depth in midfield than I would accept the deal. I believe H.Aouar is a more complete player than the other two in his position. (if you have some free time to read it).Here is an article about his play: https://www.google.com/amp/s/footballbh.net/2019/02/09/houssem-aouar-lyon-tactical-analysis-statistics/amp/

If you flip it and say they gave Connoly a +7 first then people would say look at Connoly 80 rated whilst Martinelli sits there criminally underated in comparison on 70 rated. Swings and roundabouts. His raise will come soon and it will most likely be a +7 thus making both players level in rating. They both deserve to be around the 80 mark anyway. Both exciting players snd it will be good to see how many minutes/appearances/goals they can accumulate this season between the EPL, and the Football league cup. And EL in Martinelli's case.

Well playing a left footer on the left works better for me, that's all I'm saying....

Apologies, right now I can't remember if someone even does. I managed to get an answer for you: From 2012-2018. .CFC covered the EPL thread. And around the same time timesle covered the Bundesliga thread (God bless them for their efforts).

Good Morning, I have now edited my previous post (thanks to KERSPLATS! Input). About your formation/tactics: I would play a mixed passing game against stronger opposition, use your DM as the playmaker and press in your own area in order for you to have a higher percentage of possession. Unless you are already doing well against those stronger teams then don't change a thing! If you wanna play with an attacking formation 4-3-3B is a very good one: Play Hard/Normal tackles, direct passing, a mixed attacking style, press fast in your own half. Some Players I recommend: It's to early (for some) to predict their future ratings though If your budget and player availability allows then go for: T.Abraham, M.Ozarzabal, S.Chukwueze, J.Maddison, R.Perriera, N.Milenkovic, I.Konate, J.Kounde, S.Regulion, K.Tierney, S.Tonali, A.Fati and B.Saka...

Greece coming next! Bouzoukis and Vrousai (on loan from Oly to Willem II) the biggest prospects imo

It may be challenging for Gomez to get a +1 since it seems like Matip is the current preferred partner with Van Dijk at this point. Rugani + Mandzukic sounds like a good deal for an 89 rated.

Sarabia is now starting to play better for PSG, and S.Sensi has been very good For Inter (I wished Milan would have bought him last year). Can P.Sarabia cement a place in PSG's starting line up when Mbappe and Co are fit? Right now I dont think so. K.Walker will soon (possibly early as the Summer) start to drop, especially if his game time reduces significantly, and he losese his place as England's RB. You would be better of swapping for another good RB and another very good player .

I was just concerned for your mental health! (not so the emojis), so 'no hard feelings'. Although I must admit It can be quite annoying If some fool constantly uses silly emojis on all your posts (unless it makes sense to put them there ofcourse). Like I said in my post before it's J.Alba's 'nickname on YouTube', not in Barca, maybe you need 👓. I never claimed to know much about Barca: I usually go by what is said about the Barça players by the fans and the self-proclaimed experts on the Barça forum.

It's ever since I referred to Jordi Alba as 'El Ferrari' (it's his nickname on YouTube). Ombarcagunners - called me stupid for doing that and told me that no such name existed for Jordi Alba. Thanks to the backing of others on this thread, I was confirmed to be correct (even as a non-Barca fan I knew that was Alba's nickname whereas Ombarca didn't). I think it was Victor_MFC who gave him a scolding (a few responses later) then we all had a good (emoji) laugh at him. Since then I think he is still sad and confused with me/us. (Thank you for your support back then guys! It was what I needed at the time). This happened like 50+ pages back. I hope I've not confused or saddened u in any way. 😁

Thank you for making an effort to help me. What about Ezekiel Palacios? Real Madrid were interested in him last summer but diverted due to his injury.

Dragowski, Meret, Henderson Pavard, Zagadou, Trent Olmo, potentially Fabinho. Sell Alli, much higher chance of a downgrade. Sancho. Lookman has went from being a reserve player at Everton to reserve at leipzig so he's long way off any upgrades Leao, Waldschmidt Even though Calvert-Lewin has had a good few weeks he's a long way off even a +1. He's scored 4 goals in about 3 months worth of games( 2 being cup games), about 13 in close to 90 appearances. His passing & dribbling are brilliant but as a striker he needs to be more clinical. Everton have 2 top young attackers coming through the academy who will make it harder for him. I'd recommend out of Everton youngsters to pick up Antony Gordon and Ellis Simms when Simms is eventually added

Yeah Morelos, Defoe, Stewart and Murphy. Even at Celtic you have Edouard, Bayo and then what looks like now third choice Griffiths.

He has been and his argument for a greater increase is definitely growing, but last year he only played 11 games and scored 1 so my initial prediction was weighted more towards that. I'll do some amendments now, i'll bump the prediction up to 76 as I still want to be fairly conservative with my predictions, but if he continues his form then i'll amend it again before he's reviewed.

These are from the Daily Express, which avoids any personal bias.

It is not me it is someone else. Thanks though I will go check out if other SM Elite are grey.

It's early doors. Let's get a bit closer to the winter review first.

Need to raise some funds to avoid a minus income. I'm considering selling up to 4 or 5 players from the players mentioned below, in order to balance my books: List 1: W.Saliba E. Ndicka B.Badiashile J.Andersen List 2: F.Torres C.Soler T.Almada M.Diaby Who should I sell from the 1st and 2nd shortlist?

Players that left in the season '18-'19 and will represent the Belgian competition in Abroad... ○ Takehiro Tomiyasu (Bologna) ○ Joseph Aidoo (Celta de Vigo) ○ Stefano Denswil (Bologna) ○ Birger Verstraete (FC Köln) ○ Ražvan Marin (Ajax FC) ○ Ruslan Malinovskiy (Atalanta Bergamo) ○ Léandro Trossard (Brighton & Hove Albion) ○ Moussa Djenepo (Southampton) ○ Moraes Wesley (Aston Villa) ○ Sebastiaan Bornauw (FC Köln) ○ Victor Osimhen (Lille OSC)

I think I'd go for Sule. It seems like a matter of time before he rises to 92/93 as a key starter for Bayern and Germany. He looks a safer bet at the moment for a long term high rated centre back with the rise of Lenglet for Barca and France. Also, Umtiti is injured again for around a month (expected) and has missed a lot of games in the past year.

Kilmarnock 2018/19: 3rd, Scottish Cup R5, League Cup R2 Recommended Buys Stephen O'Donnell, 77 > 82/80 Rating Increases Stuart Findley, 78 > 80 Eamonn Brophy, 76 > 80 Alex Power, 76 > 77 Niko Hamailainen, 73 > 76 Liam Millar, 70 > 76 Stephen O'Donnell, 77 > 82/80 One of the key men for Kilmarnock's remarkable third place finish last season under Steve Clarke, and a player that's certainly due a rise is right back O'Donnell. Due to O'Donnell picking up 11 caps for his country whilst at Killie, a number which is only set to increase under his former Kilmarnock boss Clarke against little competition, he should see a rating increase to 82. My only doubts of him hitting that rating are due to him playing for Kilmarnock, but really 11 caps for Scotland should certainly overwrite that and I'm confident that he'll get that and with it a really strong increase in value. Long term I'm not sure he's going to get the move needed to get any higher, if the Old Firm were going to go in for him you'd have thought they'd have done it in the summer. He's 27 now, so maybe any hopes of him playing at the very highest level are over, but unless he was to move to a Championship side and do really well he's definitely a short term money maker over anything else. Eamonn Brophy, 76 > 80 Brophy's another player who earned a Scotland cap at Kilmarnock this year, as the focal point of their attack. His 12 goals helped the club to third in the league, and with it his reputation grew as one of the best strikers in the league. He's established himself now and with it he should really get an established rating of 80. He's not had the best of starts in front of goal this season though, and I'm not sure he's prolific enough in front of goal to get him the sort of move that would make him valuable long term.

Just picked up Johnston for £340k! Will be following. :)

What league are we expecting to be reviewed next? Is there a list of leagues overdue? Scotland is, I believe Croatia is too.

I'm not using them as right back. I'm just looking for central defenders that are better with their right foot. In a 3-4-2-1 you still play as a central defender. He is the right central defender. I got Jules Koundé now and I'm trying to get Milenkovic in a club of another manager in my gw. I'm selling Militâo definetely

I have some of the risers, would need someone else to do a comprehensive review (droppers etc)

You don't have to apologise Thanks for the answer

Doesn't matter in which team and which country he plays. Who is - if you only look purely at his qualities - the best to chose ?

Havertz Ndidi Van De Beek

Periera as he's better, will hit 90 if Leicester finish top 6 which is likely & is 3 years younger. If Leicester don't finish top 6 I can see him and Maddison being sold so it's a brilliant investment

I think you should sell him. Cause he is not going to get an increase anytime soon. Besides a 5th CB looks like an excess to me cause i use only 4 CB's in all my GW's. I have a Maximum of 22 and minimum of 21 players.

Nainggolan is in decline, and Kovacic, meh average player imo. But go for Kova. However i think he will peak at 91. Dont see him being higher than that.

I actually only recently sold him. Although I do have FDJ, A.Melo and 4 better/similar rated Mids in my team: So Ndombele was not really worth hanging on to. If you can be patient with him I think you could hold on to him for a bit longer. Also if an extra midfielder would be of any use to you just in case of injuries/suspensions to other players.

Hmm not too sure on these two young keepers. Coucke made his Champions League debut but let in six. Nice especially Moukoko! I have not neglected this thread it has just been a tough month as I had an unexpected death in the family. I have saved a few articles which I will post, some may be a bit outdated so bear with me.
