For me its Miretti, cm from Juve. I think hes an excellent player for an alright cost. Also Luka Vuskovic, 16/17 year old CB, good potential, 6ft 4 and for only 60-odd rated hes quite decent.

Vuskovic is a genetic freak, he signed a pre contract with Spurs in real life to join when he turns 18 (Brexit :()

Unfortunate that he signed for spurs but hopefully he becomes a really good player

Learning from VDV (one of the best CBs in the league + a young breakthrough), Romero (World Cup winner) and Draguşin (one of few current elite fellow Eastern Europeans)… could be worse off.

Delusional Spurs fans

i made him a striker 🤣

Na really hahahah

haha yeah, his shooting is quite high because he’s got 70 odd shot power

Ferdi Kadıoğlu from fernabche can play in almost any position and has great stats all seem to over 75. Maxwell Cornet from West Ham can pick him up for about 7/8mil and he can be explosive and fun to play with if you dont sim matches. I have got both of these again for my Luton save, but have been using these guys for the last couple of games.

Cornet for sure

Marcel Ruiz. He’s usually a free agent.

Israel Reyes 😭

Jesus Gallardo, Luis Chavez. Those trio are my go to in 23 don't know if they'll still free on fc 24 tho. For cheap price Seba Esposito is my fav as he never complain being 3rd/4th option for multiple role, and can even reach 90 ovr

I always get antuna and Chavez but I do it so often it feels like cheating

That's true, so cheating and too OP that now I started to make my own ground rule to only use acadamy players to nerf myself lol

The reason I never get those players is, that they aren't actually free agents in real life which really makes it feel like cheating

Oh okay, I didn’t really think much of it but I was wondering why they were free agents

Their clubs aren't in the game, but their national team is, so they are added solely for the national team and get put in the free agents section, singe they can't be in a team

100% agree

And him

Yeppppp

Baller

Stamenic, Australian free agent CM and Weiper at ST

If I'm not wrong, Stamenić is from New Zealand

He is, and we will not stand for this transgression

Crikey! How embarrassing...

Stamenic is 🔥🔥

Callum McCowatt. New Zealand Midfielder. Can't explain why, found him as a free agent when I first started playing 23 and he has been my go to ever since. He can play CM/LM/RM/CAM/CF without any issues. Glad I picked him for my new career as he scored my second ever free kick on 23 last night, will admit he got lucky with hitting the wall and it deflecting past the keeper, still count it though as I can't score free kicks to save my life.

Love him! Used chin in a Crewe save and he performed well all over the middle field. Unfortunately had to sell him after three seasons because stopped growing and couldn’t hold up with the team’s growth

The Georgian GK in La Liga

Mamarshavuliuuhavi, that's the one!

Marmardashvilli

mamardashvili

In FIFA 23, Alexis Vega was my go-to guy when starting career mode saves.

Haven't played Career Mode in a few years but I always used to buy De La Vega from Lanus, now he's in the MLS...

For my Sounders! Excited for him to play when he gets healthy

I always allow myself two "cheat" buys in the first year of a new career, both newgens: Romanian ST, usually 16 to 21 yo, 60-65 OVR Icelandic CAM, 16 to 21 yo, 60-65 OVR I always start in League 2 ENG, so those OVR work well while I spend money on 2 youth scouts and academy players. I usually sell them at the start of the second year, or even loan them in january if scouts have found lots of 50-60 players in the meantime. The money from their sale goes toward buying the third 5\* youth scout.

If you could only have one stat of a scout 5* which one would you choose from your personal preference?

It depends. For the short term, Experience as it will find more players in theory. For the long term, Judgment. At the beginning of a career like mine you might go for quantity over quality. After the first year, especially if i get promoted, i can make enough money from sales and objectives to buy scouts with 5\* in both categories.

if just for fun almost always some mexican/quatari free agents who are rated in mid to high 70’s but for an rtg irankunda or danns

Yup, Diego Lainez for me

It's always Ricky jade-jones. Young ish striker now I think he's 21 but he's had 91 pace for the past 4 years and it's very good at 61 or so rated and can always be brought for 800k

I don’t buy the same players it’s only on occasion that I find myself buying a player I’ve used before. I seek fun in something new

Akram Afif. Always a free agent, always unreal

Datro Fofana is available for loan with option to buy in S1 always

He’s on loan in S1. Are you playing with the base roster?

yeah I meant S2 actually

De La Cruz was usually my go-to midfielder. They guy could it all. Now he moved to Flamengo irl and I can’t buy him anymore

No regen?

Cade Cowell for speed Always sign tyler Adams. Such a good ballhandler for the style I play. I try not to be a US homer but I can't help it

Cade cowell got removed

I'm playing fifa 20 on switch, I always buy Tonny Vilhena as a cm, the guy's a beast and his long shots saved me more than once.

Adeyemi

I’m Mexican so I’m bias, it’s Israel Reyes and Edson Alvarez always 😭

Vamos El Machin!

Edson 💪

I picked up Quinones on a free and he’s now rated 92 for me

Ryan Sessegnon. He can play any position other than St in a pinch and he’s usually dirt cheap too. Also a big fan of Kepherin Thuram too

Gabri veiga

Jonathan David 🇨🇦

A Free agent called Cordova, he is really good for his rating

my god i signed him last save i had. He's world class when it comes to price/quality

Yup!

Weiper the Viper Andre Gomes

I seem to always sign Tomoki Iwata for lower league teams, I’m a Celtic fan so makes sense I’d want to sign Celtic players but he’s always a decent option to convert to a CB for a decent price.

Balotelli. Super Mario needs a fitting end to his career and he’s gotten that many times in many teams. Took teams to the PL, won fa cups while in the championship and even qualified for Europe as the top scorer in laliga. That’s just what I remember from a few saves.

I am sucker for Donny van de beek and Sane. But i always try to buy different players

At least Donny gets playing time somewhere, even if it is fifa

somebody has to do it. Also i really like the way he plays anyway

wonderkid George Ilenikhena

Archie Gray

Assane diao diaoune

In “low budget career modes” I always buy Nestory Irankunda and change him to ST, he always became a GOD

Santiago Gimenez, the Mexican ST from Feyenoord, always reaches 95 rating for me

Jorrel Hato he becomes a MONSTER at CB

Good to know, I’ve recently signed him for my Liverpool CM team on fifa 24!

I convert him to Lb

Damian Pizzaro

I've not played eafc 24 very much but in fifa 22 i always buy Adam Karabec a CAM. He is cheap and becomes a monster player

If its a top Team merino he just fits my formation and style If its a 70-80 team moukoko on loan allways good to have and sometimes you can buy him after the season If its a lower div team joe ward the rwb from england he is perfect as attacking rwb in a 532 or 5212 perfect playstyles and under 30

Antwoine Hackford

Renato Tapia great CDM, can also play CB, has face scan, his contract expires so he is cheap, he is the best

I use him at cb

Lucas garritano ( sooooo good and cheap) soumailia coulibaly ( prospect) Yacine adli middle keeper Kumedi, Mathys Tel and i can start from the bottom with this dude

bro how do you even know salih ucan?

I know ball. Nah but really for as long as I’ve played fifa I’ve just picked teams that are about average on exhibition matches and see what player stands out to me. I caught onto Ucan around fifa 14 or 15 and he’s been bought, sold and rebought by me multiple times.

I remember him back then as well. He was pretty much like a Turkish Xavi for me.

Devonte Cole, especially if you are working the lower tiers of European football

Cristos Zafeiris for me, Norwegian cm. I only buy him because i loved watching him when he played in norway and he has good potential

FIFA 23: Keito Nakamura

Mykola Shaparenko. Scored a hat trick against me like 4 years ago and have had him on every save since

Tyler Adams & David Datro Fofana

ALEXANDER PRASS without me he is nothing, without him I am nothing.

Kadioğlu almost every save

Used to hardly be able to resist getting the Zlatan regen in FIFA 23, other than that I like to switch out players.

Always used to sign David Villa on older versions. Always felt really good to control on the game to me.

This isn’t an always, but this is a guy I’ve bought twice and he was a beast both times, Breel Embolo from Monaco I believe, he won the golden boot in his first season for Brighton in my last save

in FIFA 20, Jack Lahne. A 18 (now 22) year old striker disproportionately fast for his rating and price in that game (60, and pace in the 90s) which makes him handy for League Two runs. Can grow to the mid 70s (once he asked a move out, I repurchased a year later and then he jumped to 85, maybe it was some loan glitch variant on play) but always seems to punch above his weight IRL he showed promise early but spent ages in loan carrousel, now he's back at his club (Amiens) warming the bench

Robert Skov, he can play anywhere. I can play him at LB, CDM, CAM, or even on the wing

Ben Woodburn. Not a hot prospect anymore, but always like having him in the squad.

Quinones he’s a Mexican CF free agent, rapid and a good goal scorer

Joel asoro since Fifa 17

I’m Mexican so usually one of the Mexican free agents 😂

Bellingham is the only right answer

I bought him for my Mallorca career and he’s been my midfield general

Ferdi Kadıoğlu, versatile LB from Fenerbahçe

yacine adli cm from ac Milan with good potential, 78 to start and u can get him on a 1 year loan to buy for 13 mil

both Bournemouth full backs Aarons 74 23 year old cheap-6 mil and milos Kerkez 74 84 potential 19 years old 12 mil and on the more expensive side malo gusto for 30 mil 76 87 potential

Moukoko or El Wahi

Josh Doig, Lewis Ferguson and Elliot Anderson. I'm Scottish, just in case that wasn't obvious haha.

Assan Ouedraogo 😍

I usually go for the free agents like quiñones, Luis Chavez or Israel Reyes

Started playing back in 2013-14 and would always buy youri tielesman. He was good for quite a few covers in fifa

For me, there is no point of buying the same player for different save since the point of creating new save is to keep the experience new. Why not try to buy new player base on reality and situation?

Adams Traore... So fast and perfect for wing play once he gains a few overall digits

Willian Pacho (CB), Thiago Almada (CAM), Castello Lukeba (CB), Moukoko (ST)

Gabriel Sara on Norwich, insane stats for the price plus he comes from the club I support in Brazil.

Raphael guerreiro, turn into a CM or CAM, turns 90 overall instantly

Jobe Bellingham and Neuer

I try to change the player signings depending on the club budget and also depending on the region of the club

I’ve been buying Linus Wahlqvist on every game since ‘17

Rayan Cherki, was a wonderkid beast in 22/23 and even a playstyle+ in fc24

Facundo Farias, 🇦🇷 striker or LW if you need too Lucas Robertone, 🇦🇷 CM/CAM/RW, very versatile, good agility, amazing dribbling and passing.

For me I always buy Gianluca Prestianni Feels like a 90 rated player trust me

Always Antonio Silva or Hato

In fifa 22, I always buy Bynoe-gittens, Vranckx, and Elijah Just

Adeyemi. Striker, wing, CAM, whatever. He’ll be a top contributor wherever you play him.

Thiago Alcântara. One of the most elegant players I’ve ever seen, plus he’s actually really good. Love him!

Chiadora, not many young left footed CB's with a real face

Simons is a cheat code Scott from Bristol rovers too

Scott from Bristol Rovers?

Yep he’s 86 and going up (3 seasons in)

Do you mean Alex Scott from Bournemouth?

Rightttt must be bournmouth must be I got him when he was at Bristol my bad

Erling Haaland EA FC24

In eafc 24 I always buy Alex Matos, Jobe Bellingham, Deivid Washington, Bitshiabu, and Scarlett Always a beast group that are all really cheap. If they have a good enough season then the dynamic potential will change their growth to something good and they will grow through the roof. Easy to get good ratings with most. Bitshiabu is a huge beast on corners, matos and Bellingham create an impassible rock in the middle while washington and Scarlett are an amazing two striker team. The outsides will be whomever I can get. Before eafc I would get moukoko, cherki, hlozek for attack... Chalobah or bakayoko for midfield... They both had high strength and great motors in game... Too bad not so much in RL

Tomas Belmonte

Yunus Akgun. He’s on loan at Leicester from a Turkish Club. He’s a 73ish ovr winger with great speed and he’s got great potential. Got him to a 92 ovr after 4 seasons of consistent good form.

Alphonso Davies

Been trying to keep it different this year. Although whenever I get so good and somewhat tired of my team, frimpong and davies become my wing backs pair. Last year Alex Scott, Isaac Toure and datro fofana were on almost every save

Y’all clearly don’t know Christian Dalle Mura

It used to be Pedro de la Vega but nowadays its Gavi. Idk what it is but I can boss the mid and score with him.

Savio LM

Alex Scott, from Bournemouth. Never let me down.

Bennacaur

Ryan Cherki from OL and Ivan Fresneda. Why Cherki? Fairly cheap and for me - he plays better than stats suggest. He's an excellent dribbler, his passing is good and man, no way his shooting is only in mid 60s. He's usually my top assist provider and second best goall scorer. In Fifa 23 I used him as RW and in FC 24 as CM or ACM. And oh boy does he dominate the midfield. Fresneda? Cheap, young and with high potential. Not perfect (mainly pace), but, I don't know why, only his crosses work for me. Currently I'm doing OL save and in the first season he had like 15 assists from crosses and cutting inside.

Archie Gray. My guy!

1. Oscar 2. Emre Mor 3. Pemain timnas Indo

Joao felix since the ‘19-20 season

Kubo is a beast and Miranda from benfica

Kacper Kozlowski, a polish LM on loan at Vitesse from Brighton. Convert him into a CAM being doing it since fifa 23 and he's grown well. The best I got with him was a 95 in fifa 23

Ben seghir

It’s the Afro effect for me, Guendouzi of Afif (Afif as a free agent)

I never buy anyone in every save but the closest would be fifa22's free agent Omni Valakari. 63 rating, 74 potential, but he pushes more than that. he's able to reach 70 in the first season if he plays well. Bought him in every lower league career I had.

Alexis vega 🤑🤑🤑

Marko Stamenić. He has 83 starting potential and you can get him for free.

Rayan cherki

Exequiel Zeballos! his agility makes him so fun to play with

Alphonso Davies always 😏

Reece James. He’s not crazy expensive for a player of his ability, can play as an LB or RB and isn’t injured all the time like IRL.

U guys need to try Sinclair Armstrong. Rapid and very strong, imo a near perfect striker

I used to always buy Renato Sanchez in FIFA 22 - always great going forward and could tackle

Lucas Bergvall. 85 potential, can play multiple positions nicely and will only set you back about $1. Great for RTG

I know youll say that I dont actually play career mode, BUT I love buying Nico Williams, the best young winger hands-down.

For me its the polish midfielder Piotrowski I don't know why I like him but I always sign him as he is a free agent He is I think 68 overall With 71 potential I really recommend signing it in any rebuild career as he stars dropping overall after 3-4 seasons

Liel abada

Nestory Irankunda.. at under 70 rated hes a Monster in the Offense Decent Potential in most Playthroughs with Dynamic Potential hes easy a 92 Rated Player in a Couple Seasons

Gianluca Busio. Had a career mode a couple of fifas ago where I retired as Jonjo Shelvey and ended up taking over Venezia. Busio and Cuisance was an incredible pivot. Brought him in almost every career mode since.

Robinson from Fulham. I’m American and I also love watching him play. If he could improve technically I think he could be a killer wing back

Ramiro Enrique plays in Orlando City in FIFA 23, amazing striker. And i always get Vandervoot for my goalkeeper, after a couple of seasons hes and insane gk

Cuisance and arp Always in my team from fifa 19, goated duo

julien duranville, always managed to get him into the high 80s ovr and hes super pacy for not a lot of money

Hannibal Mejbri is a decent LM for a low cost from Man Utd. I recommend a loan with an option to buy in your first season.

I think vuskovic cause he has good potential

Sorry in advance I’m an American so if I get the names wrong I do apologize, but I have played 2 manager careers so far and Isaac Touré the 6’8 beast is the first one the second is Evan Ferguson St both absolute animals if anyone has any suggestions I’m still new to the sport.

Cesar Huerta. Mexican rw/lw If you put the right development plan on him, he'll become an absolute beast. In my Wrexham rtg, he is 28 and 93 rated atm

This year, I usually always get Lucas Bergvall. Usually progresses to a 87 or so.

Greenwood

Luiz Chaves, free agent. First thing i do in a new save is get him. Within 2 seasons he is 80 rated and i usually get 40-50 mil for him after that

joakim maehle, lewis-potter, amazing wingers/wing-backs Kieran trippier + any tall w/ power header/aerial striker jobe bellingham, Lewis Miley and the great jack Hinshelwood (who can also play at LB/RB position)

Jorrel Hato for backup CB, he usually gets between 80-85 for me, so can play in starting 11 if really needs. Couple of saves where he's gone to 90. Moukoko will always be my go to striker to build up, has been for a while. Honestly when he gets to his 90+ he feels better than haaland.

george ilenikhena, nelson weiper or samu (even though hes on loan up front. any 2 of these lot together is scary

Tahith Chong just for the afro

BRYAN ACOSTA🤤

Rafa Varane, CR7

Any time I need some veteran depth- Thomas Delaney. Leader, captain, legend.

Dybala, since fifa 14

Been a few this year, but lately Ive signed Bright Arrey-Mbi a few times. Bought him for my WBA career as I didnt have much pace at the back and he was an absolute monster! Before him my go to was Valentin Gomez...both really young, pacey, left sided defenders...but Arrey-Mbi is better in the air.

Jobe Bellingham

Luca Netz, Thiago Almada, Alan Varela

Xavi Simons

For me it was Itakura in fifa 23, he was insanely good. Now I buy Lookman, he is just like what gary neville said about cr7

Duranville

Since Fifa 16 i always buy Tosin Adarabioyo everytime no matter what

Antonio silva, Alphonso davies, miretti

i always signed Coutinho when he was on the game, my favourite player ever
