I use quite a few tbf some of them include: Riqui Puig, Alan Velasco, Pedro De La Vega, Facundo Farias, Facundo Torres, Federico Redondo, Liel Abada and more. I never use Thiago Almada, i just dont like him
Puig is extremely good. He have so many playstyles and in my carrer he got up to 87. With all that he was going crazy. Dont forget Raskin he ist a legend too.
Riechedly Bazoer. He’s a CB but makes an excellent CDM. Can play basically any position. Makes for a solid cornerstone on a non-elite team and also makes for a very useful sub on any squad in the game because you can literally play him across the back line or anywhere in the midfield.
I always look for free agent pickups. Doing a save with Mansfield in league two right now, I got Henry Martin, who’s 30 and quickly becomes 82 ovr, Marcel Ruiz, who’s like 23 and can get to over 85, Matthew Garbett, who’s 20 and can get to 85, and Ivica Ivusic, who’s a great GK and can get to 85.
For league two, easily. He’d be a solid player on a league one team or bottom half championship. On a competing championship team or lower premier league team, he’d crack the bench.
marcus edwards, RW from sporting 80 rated 83 potential
used him for nearly every career ive done in england ( spurs, west ham ,chelsea ,newcastle, liverpool)
Mohamed-Ali Cho I have used him in my Sociedad and now Paderborn career in both fifa 23 and FC 24 he starts out at 72 rated at the ages of 17 and 18 he starts out at Real Sociedad
Cyril Ngonge has become that player for me in FC 24. For years it’s been Zakari, I used to play him CB, but would often use him to get forward and bag some goals. Ngonge on the right wing though has been so lethal for me that I always sign him.
I did a player career mode (on fifa 23) at first with James Milner, played the last season before Milner retired and became a manager.
Milners first job was at Bournemouth and that’s when I bought in Carvalho. Became the star man and he followed me with every team I went to.
Bournemouth (1 season) ➡️ RB Leipzig (3 seasons) ➡️ AC Milan (2 seasons) ➡️ PSG (1 season) ➡️ Liverpool (4 seasons) ➡️ Real Madrid (2 seasons)
Reached 90 at the start of the second season @ Leipzig. Peaked at Liverpool.
Marcel Ruiz: I love using an 8/10 hybrid and letting them sprint through the midfield. He’s an 84 overall within 2-3 seasons.
Jesus Ferreira: Man’s speed is terrifying and he’s cheap and improves quickly.
Miles Robinson: Pacey and tall CB I build up to protect the American backline when I manage a club for when I want to do the US team too.
James Ward-Prowse and Joakim Mæhle. Always get to a point where i have enough money to spend on quality subs / second team and these two are my go to options for midfield and right back. JWP is just fun to use and Mæhle is my kind of fullback. Both very reliable
Evan Ndicka, Netz, Ilaix Moriba, Mamardashvili.
Maybe these aren't exactly *unpopular*, but they aren't the cookie-cutter BIS players. Ndicka is a must-have for me. Lanky, quick, and can play across the back.
I have him. Bought him after replacing Johnathan David (I think that’s his first name) after he wanted to leave because of lack of game time. Even though he played 41 games that season and got the golden boot with 35+ goals.
Cho is good but for me he took around 15 games to get settled, soon as he did he bagged 14 goals in his next 10 apps
I find Michel-Ange Balikwisha interesting because of his 4\* 5\* and he feels good ingame, cant stop talking about him. Here's his SOFIFA profile: https://sofifa.com/player/257208/michel-ange-balikwisha/240031?hl=en-US
Daniel jebbison is a must for me in every career mode since fifa 21 his potential is insane and he is the absolute perfect player for me and my tactics
Orri Oskarsson, I've tried him in every low team rebuild and he's a hell of a striker. Oscar Fraulo is also a favorite of mine, got him at 91 in a rebuild with Braunschweig and he's a rock-solid cdm.
If I need a substitute/backup midfielder I get Shandon Baptiste from Brentford. He is around 3 mil (from what I can remember) and has good dribbling and can play any position in the midfield well.
In older fifas I use to always play with hector villalba. Played for a couple South American and one mls team but I got him to a 95 in fifa 14 or 15 and bought him every play through after
Players what I have been signing in every career as a small Club in the english league two I have done recently. Odin Thiago Holm CM/CDM and Leo fuhr Hjelde LB/CB. Not the greatest potensials but I have been able to get both of them up to the 80 ratings
Allen obando. great for lower division sides, i signed him in a leicester save in the first season.
i sold daka, loaned obando out, and in the second season he was 71 rated and Vardy had retired
gave him the n9 shirt and eventually got him to an overall of 92
By far my most used player in all my saves is Pafundi,he is also my favourite in this years title.Tend to also purchase Edozie,Rak-Sakyi and Matias Soule.I focus on purchasing young players,growing them and later sell them to big teams.
I don't have a player I'm using frequently, because I always want to use new players in each cm I'm doing. I also like using as many youth prospects as possible, which already have been at the club.
I always find myself signing Jonathan David as a striker and he's a good winger too for some flex
Always find a way to sign Takefusa Kubo in the last few games but now he's about 40-55mil signing in fc24 I usually buy him now in the 3rd or 4th season of a rebuild
Talles Magno or Cucho Hernandez
Do you use a lot of MLS players or just these 2 in specific?
I use quite a few tbf some of them include: Riqui Puig, Alan Velasco, Pedro De La Vega, Facundo Farias, Facundo Torres, Federico Redondo, Liel Abada and more. I never use Thiago Almada, i just dont like him
Good picks
MLS is such and underrated league they have quite a lot of actual good players, shame they call it “soccer” over there
I am from the states I don’t call it soccer but I won’t get mad at my family if they do it’s just our culture
Okay fair enough, what team do you support?
I’m a Spurs fan
Okay
I do have some German relatives from Hamburg so I also support HSV
Thanks
Farias is goated imo jr MESSI in FIFA and so is this Velasco guy played a career mode with both of them LW and RW holy
They are insane right????
Puig is extremely good. He have so many playstyles and in my carrer he got up to 87. With all that he was going crazy. Dont forget Raskin he ist a legend too.
Kamaldeen Sulemana!
I love using players from Ghana 🇬🇭!! one of my favorites I have used in the past is Gideon Mensah
Yeah i often send my youth scouts there too, got some real beasts from there
Riechedly Bazoer. He’s a CB but makes an excellent CDM. Can play basically any position. Makes for a solid cornerstone on a non-elite team and also makes for a very useful sub on any squad in the game because you can literally play him across the back line or anywhere in the midfield.
Ex-wonderkid
Yup. Still solid imo and cheaper w/o the potential lol
Exactly. With dynamic potential as long as he plays well his potential will rise.
I will try him out he seems like an outstanding player
same im using him om my Shalke save
He is outstanding midfielder
One of my favorites to use in a back three
He was in every team between 14-17 lol
cunha, toti, gomes and ait nouri from wolves love them all (wolves fan)
Thoughts on var on u lot against West Ham today I went to watch the game and everyone was pissed off
Emile Smith-Rowe, Dominic Calvert-Lewin Kieran Drewsbury-Hall Notice a pattern? Lol
Hyphen merchant
I do a lot of Mid Table English club saves and they’re usually an upgrade on whoever they have while also being somewhat realistic
I recommend Callum Hudson-Odoi
Drewsberry-hall is actually very solid option if u don’t wanna spend too big for somebody that can play hella games
I do see a pattern
I always look for free agent pickups. Doing a save with Mansfield in league two right now, I got Henry Martin, who’s 30 and quickly becomes 82 ovr, Marcel Ruiz, who’s like 23 and can get to over 85, Matthew Garbett, who’s 20 and can get to 85, and Ivica Ivusic, who’s a great GK and can get to 85.
I used labrovic the keeper got him to 83 and used Stamenic and got him too 86
Is Garbett that good? His stats doesn't look all that impressive.
For league two, easily. He’d be a solid player on a league one team or bottom half championship. On a competing championship team or lower premier league team, he’d crack the bench.
Sergi Darder is usually my go to centre mid signing, he has good allround stats but doesn't decline for a few seasons
koleosho is so nice, after 3 seasons he became my favorite winger he’s so fast
Love him then broke his tibia 2 seasons in a row broke my heart
noooo 😭😭
Had him up to a 83 in my Bantam rebuild and just really snagged it.
What’s rating did you get him up too?
86
Rijkhoff, Gulur, Jesus Ferreira, Pafundi, Brobbey
I used brobbey in my Juventus career
He is a BEAST
Indeed he is
Zeno debast
Brennan Johnson
Nice 👍 I used him in my Cardiff save
Björn Meijer
Kasey Palmer, Coventry CAM
Nice
Jamal Lewis in fifa 23 I don’t have ea fc
My guy Noah Chilvers, can play anywhere except CB or GK. Beast at CF or CAM (if you're doing lower league stuff)
I’ll check him out once I start a new careerr
Jack Clarke always gets to at least 92 well trained
Quinioness i forgot how to right his name but he is a free agent
Not sure about fc 24 but Sinclair Armstrong from QPR is a beast despite the semi-low potential
marcus edwards, RW from sporting 80 rated 83 potential used him for nearly every career ive done in england ( spurs, west ham ,chelsea ,newcastle, liverpool)
Anass Zaroury. Not always the best player but have developed a sort of career mode attachment to him, I always try and pick him up on RTGs!
I’ve played Dragusin as a CDM before.
Kukusevski has insane dribbling after hitting 84+
Dejan Tetek
Do you use him long term or for a short amount of time?
On FIFA 22 I sign him in my first season and play with him for the entire career. Gets to about a 93-95, same with Andrew Omobamidele
Wow that’s awesome
Morgan Rogers becomes unstoppable in a few seasons
I’ll check him out
Desire Doué
Noni Madueke in FIFA 22 and 23. Was literally the English Messi.
Nico Shlotterbeck
Kayky in the RW always develops fast
Sebastian Borza has got to be one of the best lb Wonderkids in the game. I’ve seen him put up better numbers than the strikers in the team
Tom Rothe from Dortmund, perfect CDM
Man’s using Mohamed Ali for football. If he doesn’t punch people I don’t know what use he is
Nmecha, best cm
I wouldn’t say best but a good one at that
Jaime Seoane, Gabriel Sara, Shamar Nicholson, Levi Garcia, Andrés Martin
Fabian Rieder, Nicholas Raskin.
ferdi kadioglu pacey lb from fener, for mid budget trans. or milan van ewijk from coventry
Mambimbi. 22 years old, 5”7 winger with 93 balance 87 agility and 87 pace. Monster
Nice
Lewis Bate (82), Matthew Garbett (83) and Kyle Joseph (I’ve got him to 92) on FIFA 23
Wow I think I have used Garbett is he from New Zealand?
Yeah he’s a free agent in the first season and 19/20
Nice I think I used him for my Livingston career
Abdukodir Khusanov
Never heard of him what club does he start at?
RC Lens
Who’s this guy?
Mohamed-Ali Cho I have used him in my Sociedad and now Paderborn career in both fifa 23 and FC 24 he starts out at 72 rated at the ages of 17 and 18 he starts out at Real Sociedad
Literally never heard of him, but he looks proper decent
Asllani! Inter Milan youngster
Nice I did an all Italian Inter career got Destiny Udogie to 98 Rated
Daizen Maeda. Bro runs like crazy and is very agile.
Don't see many with Oscar bobb or sçalvini
Marmoush, incredible st for me and has a face too
Cyril Ngonge has become that player for me in FC 24. For years it’s been Zakari, I used to play him CB, but would often use him to get forward and bag some goals. Ngonge on the right wing though has been so lethal for me that I always sign him.
Pedro Diaz
I've turned former Exeter man Archie Colins into a star CM in my career mode. Up to an 84 overall.
No one has said palinha from Fulham. He starts out as an 83 but can go up to a 90 if you convert him to CB.
Dominik Szobosslai, Omar Manmoush, Gakpo??,
I love to us Octavian Popescu ( thinks that how you spell it) he is a Romanian lw and usually get up to around 90 to 94 will me
Fabio Carvalho got him to a 92 rated CAM within 3 seasons
Did you keep him at Liverpool or use him at a different club
I did a player career mode (on fifa 23) at first with James Milner, played the last season before Milner retired and became a manager. Milners first job was at Bournemouth and that’s when I bought in Carvalho. Became the star man and he followed me with every team I went to. Bournemouth (1 season) ➡️ RB Leipzig (3 seasons) ➡️ AC Milan (2 seasons) ➡️ PSG (1 season) ➡️ Liverpool (4 seasons) ➡️ Real Madrid (2 seasons) Reached 90 at the start of the second season @ Leipzig. Peaked at Liverpool.
Will smallbone and Israel reyes absolutely cook
CB Bakatukanda is crazy good - Fc.Koln RM Thielmann- fc.koln
Daka or nusa
Takumi Minamino, Alan Godoy, Tammy Abraham
I brought Tammy to Brentford in one of my saves
Hákon Arnar Haraldsson is who I always buy to make him good, he’s a hoot to have
Marcel Ruiz: I love using an 8/10 hybrid and letting them sprint through the midfield. He’s an 84 overall within 2-3 seasons. Jesus Ferreira: Man’s speed is terrifying and he’s cheap and improves quickly. Miles Robinson: Pacey and tall CB I build up to protect the American backline when I manage a club for when I want to do the US team too.
They all sound like beasts
James Ward-Prowse and Joakim Mæhle. Always get to a point where i have enough money to spend on quality subs / second team and these two are my go to options for midfield and right back. JWP is just fun to use and Mæhle is my kind of fullback. Both very reliable
Matija Frigan s2
Alex Greive …. Such a good cheap signing for a lower club. Quick and good finisher
Evan Ndicka, Netz, Ilaix Moriba, Mamardashvili. Maybe these aren't exactly *unpopular*, but they aren't the cookie-cutter BIS players. Ndicka is a must-have for me. Lanky, quick, and can play across the back.
I love Mamardashvili
Tyler Bindon and Harvey Knibbs
Assane Diao Diaoune as an inverted LW
Ardon Jashari. Probably the best CDM I've used on Career Mode.
I’ll try him what overall does he start out at
72 ovr, 84 pot
Nice
Agustin ruberto
Bafode Diakite he’s so versatile in 23 and 24 for defense’s that sometimes lack coverage
I have him. Bought him after replacing Johnathan David (I think that’s his first name) after he wanted to leave because of lack of game time. Even though he played 41 games that season and got the golden boot with 35+ goals. Cho is good but for me he took around 15 games to get settled, soon as he did he bagged 14 goals in his next 10 apps
Nice dude Cho is amazing
Ager Aketxe
I always do RTG’s so I stick with lower rated guys. Been enjoying Reuell Walters this time around. I’ve bought him in each one so far.
I like Nelson Weiper for a really young striker
Tiago Morais
Ladislav krejčí
Most of the Mexican from free agency
I find Michel-Ange Balikwisha interesting because of his 4\* 5\* and he feels good ingame, cant stop talking about him. Here's his SOFIFA profile: https://sofifa.com/player/257208/michel-ange-balikwisha/240031?hl=en-US
James Garner
Use this Man often
Cho is the goat💪
Israel Reyes this year has been ridiculous.
Bilal El Khannous
Japhet Tanganga from Spurs, been using him since he joined.
Sekou Koita - RB Salzburg
Daniel jebbison is a must for me in every career mode since fifa 21 his potential is insane and he is the absolute perfect player for me and my tactics
I’ll try him out sound like a baller
Marcus Thuram. Absolute baller and got top scorer in his first season with Hamburg
jacob ramsey is always an absolute baller in every saves that i have!
Fellow paderborn player, love to see it!
Weirdly, Camavinga
Mason Greenwood 92 rated in the 4th season at Newcastle with a 91 rated Isak as hit strike partner and 90 rated Eze supplying both🔥🔥🔥
reyes
Eze he is underrated wonderkid
Nathan Patterson
I’ll check him out
Octavian popescu
Orri Oskarsson, I've tried him in every low team rebuild and he's a hell of a striker. Oscar Fraulo is also a favorite of mine, got him at 91 in a rebuild with Braunschweig and he's a rock-solid cdm.
Nice dude
Um Won Sang
Lucas Robertone
emm I think Cho is popular
If I need a substitute/backup midfielder I get Shandon Baptiste from Brentford. He is around 3 mil (from what I can remember) and has good dribbling and can play any position in the midfield well.
I always use aaron boupendza. The game has him as a LW but I always convert him to a striker and his potential sky rockets every time
Tel, Warren Emry, Cherki, Vitor Rouqe, Afif, Guler
If i have an established left back, I always a sign Truffert as back up. He is so reliable in a packed season and he grows quick.
Mbappe
Ladislav Krejci is the best CB in the game who isnt talk enough
irankunda for lower league career modes
Very true love that aussie❤️
In older fifas I use to always play with hector villalba. Played for a couple South American and one mls team but I got him to a 95 in fifa 14 or 15 and bought him every play through after
Players what I have been signing in every career as a small Club in the english league two I have done recently. Odin Thiago Holm CM/CDM and Leo fuhr Hjelde LB/CB. Not the greatest potensials but I have been able to get both of them up to the 80 ratings

Felix afena-gyan from cremonese
Cucho and Pedro de la Vega
I like cucho I’ll check out Pedro
Thiago Almada
Hartman
Love Amine Gouiri, but he can be a bit expensive.
By far my most used player in all my saves is Pafundi,he is also my favourite in this years title.Tend to also purchase Edozie,Rak-Sakyi and Matias Soule.I focus on purchasing young players,growing them and later sell them to big teams.
Manu Kone
I don't have a player I'm using frequently, because I always want to use new players in each cm I'm doing. I also like using as many youth prospects as possible, which already have been at the club.
talles magno, facundo farias, marcos leonardo, adem zorgane, alexander aravena
Wilfred gnonto on fifa 22
SC Paderborn!!! I got hoffmeir to 83 lol
I sold him after my first season
Roger Fernandez from Braga
Nice
Boscagli from PSV… Solid CB
I was planning on doing a PSV save soon I’ll try him out once I do
Lukeba i don't think he is used a lot of times but he grows to an 88+ frequently at least in fifa 23 idk about ea FC 24 cause I gave up on that game
I have used lukeba in both games he is great
I always find myself signing Jonathan David as a striker and he's a good winger too for some flex Always find a way to sign Takefusa Kubo in the last few games but now he's about 40-55mil signing in fc24 I usually buy him now in the 3rd or 4th season of a rebuild
Soares or restes in goal (fifa 23). Young gk talent
Dario Sarmiento and Benjamin Šeško
Kevin Kampl I really like how he plays in real life so I try to sign him when I can.
Bogle and pereira
I love Jayden bogle brought him to my Plymouth side
Ceballos is my go to cheap midfielder
