Hi All, Currently in fifth season with Molde, trying to bring them to CL glory (quarter finals best to date :(). I have annual reminders telling me when nations have youngsters available to approach. However, with only a medium database, finding it hard to find decent youngsters. Which teams...

its like you are playing my Molde FM save as well FMG. I have 6 of the players you've mentioned there :P

Congrats Dark - onwards and upwards. What's your budget for your new players? If you're only looking for a solid CB, Marian Sarr is decent and affordable from Dortmund (assuming he is still there). Koray Gunter is also decent but he's Turkish but I'm sure he would be close to German nationality...

It gets thrown around a lot, but players from Norway are really impressive - especially if you have a database that is loading most of their squads. Players from Molde like Hovland, Berget and Forren do a great job in mid-lower Prem and will even sign with some Championship sides. There's also...

After a three year exodus from the FM community (owing to the fact it nearly cost me my degree), I am back to let it affect my working life. Having played since the glory days of CM 95/96 at just five years old, I feel FM is as part of my life as Pokemon trading cards, Merlin stickers and...
