Yeah, but they're not qualified scouts, they just use local divs who turn up to the club they support and then give feedback on the players! I had to pay my £30m forward Justin Georcelin about £100k a week to stay at United on FM/Championship Manager 01/02 and he ended up a crackhead in real life. Swings and roundabouts.
Just remember that Everton signed a deal with them to use their scouting knowledge a few years back... Been quite a few players who have turned out brilliantly on FM that have done it in real life... Marco Veratti was a beast you could buy for 100k a while back, now he is a terrific player for PSG. Saying that, some of them do turn out bad, but that's the nature of the beast. And with Justin Georcelin, he may have had the potential, but not the willpower to succeed.
Everton must have used that vast scouting knowledge to sign Denis Straquilursi as well, who has turned out such a star. The original creators of the game are Everton fans, which probably has something to do with that as well. People get too wrapped up in FM thinking it's some kind of relevant database, when it's single biggest attraction is being able to unearth new talent and build a squad capable of being world beaters. Without this fantasy element being part of the fabric of the game, it would have died on it's arse as a concept. It undermines professional scouts, people ranting and raving about "I signed him on FM 2007 when he was 18", that's means nothing when chances are, the world's top scouts have been watching him since he was 11.
Think Zabaleta plays CB for Argentina, they are ****ing clueless at organising a defence for the national side.
My head in now mashed in !!! Sunderland AFC News And Banter Page:- @SAFCsource Gino Peruzzi's impending move to Sunderland is mentioned on Velez Sarsfield's official website. http://bit.ly/19FwJ1B #SAFC http://www.velezsarsfield.com.ar/prensa/notas/2013/06/27/004741.html Some translation - which does your heed in ! During the afternoon of Wednesday, the VIP room on the third floor was home to a new Mano a Mano, a classic of the Press. This time, the protagonist was the right lateral Velez and the Argentina, Gino Peruzzi, who along with three partners winners, Eladia Stella, Paul Bancalari and Diego Famá, chatted about the semester, the Superfinal in Mendoza, continuity and more. Past seven o'clock, the defender and the wheel of Velez Sarsfield reached the third floor, where Eladia Stella, Paul Bancalari and Famá Diego, with her daughter, waiting for him to live a beautiful day. The ice broke Diego with her daughter, who shyly looked at Vélez player, saying, "What you said yesterday? What were we going to see Gino? "And with a smile on the faces of all these questions began. The first issue addressed was the Superfinal before Newell's in Mendoza, and they asked how previous lives such meetings. Gino said he was quiet and eager to build a new drink. When analyzing the hard half that experienced in Liniers, among the many injuries and left points on the road, it concluded that it was a bad run, which felt it was coming to live a very good semester prior to the Initial Tournament crown. To continue, there was talk about an issue that concerns all velezanos fans: its continuity. Who carries the number four on his back, said he is not yet confirmed his departure from Liniers: "We still do not know anything, but there is a deal". Then orders started: "Do not go Gino!" And the need to know more. Gino confirmed that it is the Sunderland team who play in the Premier League, and that would be from next season.
Sunderland are close to sealing a stunning coup by signing Argentina right-back Gino Peruzzi. The 21-year-old shot to prominence with club Velez Sarsfield after he kept Brazilian superstar Neymar quiet over both legs of a Copa Libertadores semi-final - the South American equivalent of the Champions League. His performances for the 2012 Argentine champions drew praise from across the continent. Now, despite being watched by Europeâs top clubs, it appears the rebuilding Black Cats may be on the brink of securing the starletâs signature. Boasting four international caps already, Peruzzi is eligible for an Italian passport and will therefore not require a work permit to complete a move to the Wearsiders. Peruzzi confirmed to fans on Wednesday that he was in talks with Sunderland ahead of the Argentine leagueâs âSuperfinalâ on Sunday.
Looks like this one is happening, both player and club at their end have mentioned us. Will be watching the Velez v Newells Tourneo Final with interest on Sunday (live on bet365), especially as we are credited with an interest with 2 Newell's players as well, Newell's are very eye catching to watch quick, skilful and hammer attacking, they finished top of the clausera table. Velez have a rich history of producing talent, I guess Diego Simone is the most famous.
Velez Sarsfield have declared that negotiations are at an advanced stage over a deal to take Argentina international Gino Peruzzi to Sunderland, and the full-back is excited about the opportunity. The highly-rated 21-year-old is understood to have been identified as a transfer target by Sunderland as manager Paolo Di Canio looks to reshape his squad ahead of the new Premier League campaign. Velez vice-president Julio Baldomar says the two clubs are in discussions and has indicated that confirmation of a transfer could be imminent. "The negotiations are very advanced," he said on TV Publica. Peruzzi, who can also play on the wing but is primarily a right-back, would welcome a move to the Premier League and has spoken to Velez general manager Christian Bassedas, a former Newcastle United player, about life in the North East of England. "It's beautiful, especially since in my opinion it's one of the best leagues because of the tempo played there," Peruzzi told Ole. "I think English football is the most competitive. "Yes, Bassedas told me about the city, the people, that there is a lot of respect, he said something about the team. He told me that he liked to play there." "I want to leave [Velez] as a winner."
