Questions people ask

Who are Manchester City's best young players for FM27?

On our list: Ayyoub Bouaddi (19, Manchester City F.C.), Vitor Reis (20, Manchester City F.C.) and Nico O'Reilly (21, Manchester City F.C.). In-game potential comes from Sports Interactive's database and is visible only in FM27.

Should I keep or loan out Manchester City's youngsters?

In Football Manager, young players develop with match time. SI says FM27 youngsters weigh game time more when choosing a move, so promising players who will not start are often better loaned out.
