On to wide players, and first up are right midfielders. Both RMs and more forward-playing RWs have been included.
As usual, in an attempt to make this relevant to as many players as possible, I have not included any right midfielders whose OVR is above 73 – this way you can keep your costs down and have some cash left over for other purchases (be they real players or new scouts). Furthermore, I have listed the players by cost, with the cheapest at the top of each sub-group (players are grouped by potential). However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that the lowest-OVR players are at the top – notice how Giorgi Chanturia is 6 points better and £600,000 cheaper than Elio De Silvestro, whilst also having the Dribbler speciality.
Here are my recommendations:
- Giorgi Chanturia
- Deulofeu
- Lucas Andersen
Giorgi Chanturia is just 18 years old, yet he already comes with the Dribbler speciality. He is agile, quick and has great balance, so can glide past defenders. He also has 5 star skill moves, so will have plenty of tricks up his sleeve. £3.7m is a steal for someone of his ability and potential.
Deulofeu epitomises the ideal winger – he’s a speedster and is full of tricks, so you can bamboozle your opponents or simply steam past them. His weak foot is also very good, so you can choose whether to make him cross or cut inside and shoot without having to sacrifice quality. He even has pretty good stamina for a such speedy winger. His young age means he’ll be starring for you for years to come, so make sure you tie him down to a long contract.
Finally, Lucas Andersen has the flexibility to be deployed as an RM or further up the pitch as a winger. His crossing is decent and his dribbling is really good (it’s rated 73; he’s 16, imagine what it’ll be after just a couple of seasons’ worth of growth). His passing and positioning are also good, so you could even play him as an attacking midfielder if you preferred. At 16 he’s got plenty of time to develop, and at £1.6m he’s a bargain that’s simply too good to miss.
Please bear in mind that these figures may not be exactly the same on your game. These stats are taken from my own personal experiences, but are likely to be very similar to those on your own game. The best thing to do is to make sure you keep checking these players, as their prices may drop radically after a while.
Finally, if you’ve had any experiences of good players’ prices changing wildly (especially if their price drops), please post it in the comments!
So, without further ado, here are the players:
