James M

Pro-G: So as creator of the game, what's your inside tip on some really good young players people should buy in the game?

MJ: Well I was absolutely gutted when AC Milan bought Alex Pato because him on a free transfer would have been absolutely astonishing but they ended up buying him for quite a lot of money. I don't like giving too much of this stuff away. We are going to release the names of some players for people to watch out for. I've got to go through and make sure that I keep some of them for myself for when I'm playing networked games.

Pro-G: Can you give us one?

MJ: OK, I'll give you a centre back, definitely worth picking up, he'll be difficult to get because of work permit problems - a centre back called David who's playing in Brazil, he's a young Brazilian guy. He is rock solid. Certainly good enough for a Championship team in the first year and good enough for the Premier League in the second year. I'll give you a midfielder as well. Hatem Ben Arfa who's a player who's been a bit of a legend in FM for the last couple of years because he does get good further down the line. He's now good from the off. There are some very, very good young players out there in the real football world and that's why they're good inside the game as well.
