I posted these players in the who's going to replace Ronaldo thread, but I am wondering who else everyone is looking at to become the next great footballers:
Douglas Costa
Miralem Pjanic
Giovinco
Alan Dzagoev
Neymar
Ciro
Javier Pastore
What do you guys think? Is there a thread on this already....I hate creating duplicate threads, but it can be a real hassle looking through page by page
Haha, I love football video games. I just wish players always turned out as awesome in reality as they do in the game. Any other young players to mention though? I was intending just to include these guys as a starting point
Man.... When you start talking about young players, I can't stop naming them.... I have a whole list of them.... ! Moussa Dembele - AZ Alkmaar Ramires - Cruzeiro Stephane M'Bia - Rennes (Everton have interest) Yoann Gourcuff - Bordeaux Falcao - River Plate Marek Hamsik - Napoli Cristian Zapata - Udinese Jeremy Menez - Roma Robert Acquafresca - Caligari Igor Akinfeev - (not sure what club) Stephen Ireland - Man City Marvin Emnes - Boro Felipe Caicedo - Man City Franco Di Santo - Chelsea Daniel Sturridge - Man City Damen Plessis -Liverpool (I hope he'l soon be big....) Lucas Biglia - Anderlecht (Aston Villa have interest) Tranquillo Barnetta - Leverkusen Renato Agusto - Leverkusen Micheal Knightly - Wolves Cameron Jerome - Birmingham Sylvan Ebanks-Blake - Wolves De La Red - Real Madrid Martin Caceres - Barca Diego Capel - Sevilla (really good) Bojan Kirk - Barca Kerrison - Coritiba Leo - Gremio Freddy Adu - Monaco Charles Kabore - Marseille Much muchc more.... (just 2 tired to type more....)
Geez.... Killer post haha. Which are your personal favorites though? Out of your list I'm partial to Gourcuff.... That goal was absolutely phenomenal this season
Well.... Erm.... Hard to choose.... I do expect Roma's Jeremy Menez (Deep forward) to do well. Marek Hamsik (attacking midfielder) already has a high profile and we might see Stephane M'Bia (defensive midfielder) in the Prem.... Plus Diego Capel (Winger) from Sevilla, he was in the "top 100 players in the world" last year.... In 96th place I think.... (he's still only 21!) he might actually be a decent replacement for CR7 if he progresses even better...
I saw Diego Capel play in the Fifa U-20 World Cup a couple of years back and he definitely had a lot of skill. He seemed to be more than happy to go about beating an entire team on his own. Pique in my opinion is better
I can't wait for Davide Santon to mature. Even though he's playing for Inter, he'll be magnificent for Italy on the national stage. Possibly their Maldini. Although I don't think that he'll be a one club man
He is going to be soooo good And messi is really young as well
And vela no one has said He already is a starter for mexico and scored some fantastic goals for arsenal this season In the carling cup and fa cup He has amazing skills
Just sit back and watch this video, includes some of the biggest names to be in football. Made a while though so don't go crazy if the player is older than it says.
The only reason people have knocked off Freddy Adu is because everyone expected him to be the best player ever at age 14! He's still a great player, and is one of the future stars of our national team
