VALUE (that they will sell at) - €55,000
VERSION - 6.01
DATABASE SIZE - Large
COMMENTS - Fantastic defender. His marking/tacking are 19-20 as well as his heading. Has decent pace/acceleration. I got him for Bristol City (meaning he can get a work permit) and was always a consistent performer. I sold him to Milan (also me (H)) and is doing great deputising for Nesta and Kompany. And oh, he's 192cm. Not bad at all.

COMMENTS: Watched him pkay irl for France U21 against England U21. Stumbled across him in the game and what the heck, buy him for 575K for my Aston Villa side short on defenders.

It turns out that, he has been putting performances that are rated 9 and has dislodged Mellberg from the team. Can play in a variety of positions as well. Pacey, great at heading, one of the true bargains of the game.

CLUB: Internacional
VALUE (that they will sell at): 4.1m €
VERSION: 6.0.1
DATABASE SIZE: Large, could be on smaller sizes too.
COMMENTS: Acelleration 20 and pace 18 make him the new Cafu, on the other wing. Great attacking attributes, like dribbling (18), Crossing (19) and technique (20), but defensivly great too: tackling (16), marking (17), heading (16). Maybe he is a bit weak mentally, but it's still pretty good imo.

http://www.soccergaming.tv/attachment.php?attachmentid=126540&stc=1

^^^ He's pretty sh1t at the beginning of the game.

Get this guy called Coelho, he's much better right off the start. He's the true Cafu as he plays on the right side.

COMMENTS: i remember he is one of the best player in CM, and he is still in FM06 :p

Lorik is fecking awesome. He also scores very much for me out of corners with his good heading :rockman:
Bit expensive though got him for 15m.

in my game Marseille picked him up for 2.8M in the first season. He looks good though i have to admit. He flew under my radar unfortunatly and isnt really a value for money buy in 2010. He is still with Marseille coincedently, and hasnt played much at all.
