After the update, Tchouameni is one of my favorites to use. Great defensively and can do a little of everything. Honestly though, the Leipzig midfield might be my favorite in the game. Szobozlai is great, but I love what Nkunku brings going forward, Tyler Adams and Haidara are solid all around, and Konrad Laimer is one of my favorites to use. I'm a sucker for mobile defensive midfielders, so of course I love Laimer. Another one of my go to purchases is Wilmar Barrios. He is a great defensive specialist to pair with a more attacking option in the middle, and, unless I have the best squad in the league, I prefer getting specialists who are elite at certain actions instead of do everything players. It just helps me play the big teams on more equal footing
I think you need to cover the personality of the players, specifically their consistency, important matches and professionalism seem to be underrated in importance
Used Yunas Musah. A bit of a gem from Valencia for less than 10 mil and has 8+ in all stats starting out. Play him as an Advanced Playmaker cause of his vision and his dribbling. MOTM vs Bayern and destroyed Kimmich in the midfield. Even injured him which meant Bayern dropped points more.
what else did you do with musah? like training wise, etc? using him currently in a southampton save (first season), and he seems pretty useless, constant shots from outside the box into row z, seems better defensively than attackingly for me.
I played musah as box to box midfielder and over the 2 years his match ratings were 7.2ish plus scored and assisted really well ,15-20 goal contributions
I think my favourite three is : 1. Jude Bellingham 2. Ilaix Moriba 3. Eduardo Camavinga - takes some time to develop, but one he does , either in Carrilero or later on in Deep laying Playmaker in support. Great. And in 2029 I have a Brazilian that I picked up for £14.5 from the Brazilian team - Servulo(18 - now he is 22) . I don't know if you get him in your save. Great video
But yeh, those 3 have the higgest pa in the game, and a decent mentality to fulfill that potential. Camavinga, Bellingham, Moriba; Demir Musiala, Fati is the most op front 6 you can have (they have really high random pa).
Rodrigo de Paul is amazing. I only used him on a save with atlético and wasnt that good in the first season, but after it he was Just amazing as an atacking playmaker in midfield
Great video. Hands down the best midfielder I've had in FM22 would have to be Nicolo Rovella. In a squad with Bellingham and Barella, he has been outperforming both of them, for 2 seasons straight. Great as a deep lying playmaker.
Manu Kone is really underrated. Great BBM midfielder for my Newcastle save with great potential. Will eventually be a solid squad player with a great attitude.
@@Clayts agent offered him on deadline day in my utd save, got a offer 20m for mctominay and sold him and 10 m towards Alberto. Was by pure fluke, I’m always too busy trying to sign neves or milinkovic savic lol
Set him in a midfield where he is the only playmaker, like a dm as an anchor/half back, a 8 as a btb/cm support and JWP as an advanced playmaker on attack, or roaming playmaker. The match engine will naturally look for him as the ball carrier/playmaker if you play from behind.
barrella got 25 goals 20 assists in one season for me and never went under 25 g/a in 5 years. best CM i’ve used, funnily enough John McGinn is rather ridiculous too
I dont think there was a single player who was rated worse in FM22 than Dominik Szoboszlai. I realize that it's partially due to how he is utilized IRL but his real life metrics, especially his pressing numbers, are so off the charts that it's obscene how low his defensive attributes are rated. Most of them are below 10 whereas they should be around a 13-15 at the start of the game. They also nerfed the hell out of him in comparison to FM20 and FM21.
Great video Enis Bardhi serms a real find not used him before very consistent great value signing Any plans to do one on keepers or wing backs please Clayts?
Great list! However I'm wondering why Moriba doesn't appear there lol. Is there a special reason? I always see him become at least top 10 cmfs in my saves
I miss bringing Lovro Majer from Dinamo Zagreb in last FMs, he always played great for me. For big money SMS and Luis Alberto from Lazio would be my choice.
I play a 32221 (attacking wing backs,2 central mid and 2 shadow strikers). I have taken Reading to the champions league atm. I have a Aaron Ramsey of villa and he is beast as a shadow striker and Alfie Devine as a DLP he is just a metronome

Barrios is underrated. Dude is my favourite.
Szoboszlai is the best CM I’ve ever used. Once had 25 Goals and 30 Assists in one season as a Central Midfielder on Attack.
Depends which league, in Premier League atleast for me he is not really good
@@kosztihunor6439 not really, he's got an average of 7.5 and above as a Mezzala in my Manchester UTD save.
@@kosztihunor6439 used him with Manchester United in the Premier League
I have used a CAM, Thiago Almada from FM20 and he has never disappointed
Ruben Neves is an absolute monster on the Xbox version 33 apps 5 goals 18 assists in 1st season from dlp

One of my favourites has to be Elmas you can use him in almost any role he knows how to defend and can shoot
I think my favourite three is :
1. Jude Bellingham
2. Ilaix Moriba
3. Eduardo Camavinga - takes some time to develop, but one he does , either in Carrilero or later on in Deep laying Playmaker in support. Great.

That sounds like a regen wonderkid, wich is random.
But yeh, those 3 have the higgest pa in the game, and a decent mentality to fulfill that potential.
Camavinga, Bellingham, Moriba; Demir Musiala, Fati is the most op front 6 you can have (they have really high random pa).
Rodrigo de Paul is amazing. I only used him on a save with atlético and wasnt that good in the first season, but after it he was Just amazing as an atacking playmaker in midfield
Stiller and Nico are great, I just need a good creative player to make a fantastic midfielder trio
Love it! Well done, Clayts.
For me it has been szoboslai, rovella, bellingham and sms. I also like soucek and yusef yazicki
edit- i commented before watching the video lol and most of these are in the vid :). PS that Barcelona team is nuts!! a lot of my fav players
Great video. Hands down the best midfielder I've had in FM22 would have to be Nicolo Rovella. In a squad with Bellingham and Barella, he has been outperforming both of them, for 2 seasons straight. Great as a deep lying playmaker.
Really like Rovella - he almost made this list tbf just not used him enough!
Great list, Bennacer is a fantastic shout
Only used him pre-patch and he is amazing and expect he got a boost after the season he has had, but Conor Gallagher is a legend for me.
I'm impressed with your "Szoboszlai" pronounciation, I give it a 9/10 very close! :)
I’ll take that!
Manu Kone is really underrated. Great BBM midfielder for my Newcastle save with great potential. Will eventually be a solid squad player with a great attitude.
Honestly I have to ban myself from signing bennacer in my saves, he's just such a go to for me has been for the last 3 fms
Got Luis Alberto for 30 mil in my man utd save and he’s a boss. Seeing bennacer stats tho I think I might get him in next window lol.
Love luis Alberto too tbf
@@Clayts agent offered him on deadline day in my utd save, got a offer 20m for mctominay and sold him and 10 m towards Alberto. Was by pure fluke, I’m always too busy trying to sign neves or milinkovic savic lol
Shoutout to Sergj Milkman Savic absolute beast aswell
Definitely a shout
Saad Bguir in the Tunisian league is a great bargain who can be a good creator if you're at a club that can't obtain these players
I’ve always wondered how do I utilize a player such as JWP. I essentially want it to be “pass it to James and he’ll solve it”. 10? 6?
6 for me - make sure he’s on set pieces and away you go. I managed to win the ballon d’Or with him in FM21 playing as a DLP
Set him in a midfield where he is the only playmaker, like a dm as an anchor/half back, a 8 as a btb/cm support and JWP as an advanced playmaker on attack, or roaming playmaker.
The match engine will naturally look for him as the ball carrier/playmaker if you play from behind.
barrella got 25 goals 20 assists in one season for me and never went under 25 g/a in 5 years. best CM i’ve used, funnily enough John McGinn is rather ridiculous too
What role do you play Barella?
@@stuartpearson2003 i used him as a segundo volante and CM attack
Excellent video!
Please can anyone help? How do I get the attribute analysis to show up on the player profile screen alongside the attributes?
Malinovsky from inter Milan I believe, what a player seriously check him out.

Paulo Bernardo and Fabian are amazing
My Top 5
5 Tchounameni
4 Nunes
3 Eriksen
2 Bellingham
1 JWP by far
One of my favorites is Bissouma, He's a monster!!
Great video Enis Bardhi serms a real find not used him before very consistent great value signing
Any plans to do one on keepers or wing backs please Clayts?
Yep - those will be the next two!
Livakovic undoubtedly the goat gk
Great list! However I'm wondering why Moriba doesn't appear there lol. Is there a special reason? I always see him become at least top 10 cmfs in my saves
Just personal experience- I had him in the beta save at Leicester and he wasn’t very good (we weren’t very good). Agreed he turns out superb though
Absolute beast.. Scores at least 4 goal of the season type of goals every season on my Man UTD save
Thoughts on Billy Gilmour as a DLP? I play him with 2 strong/tall BBMs
Yeah I like him, used him there in a Derby save we did
My go to is always Reyna never let me down
Looking forward to favourite GK
Signed Bennacer on my arsenal career mode, he’s insane
I miss bringing Lovro Majer from Dinamo Zagreb in last FMs, he always played great for me. For big money SMS and Luis Alberto from Lazio would be my choice.
Declan Rice is solid in cm holding or cdm
Edit - but u ain't getting him under 80 million 😅
Vitinha - FCPorto !!
Personally I love the Aouar/Caqueret pairing at Lyon
I am literally watching it in India at midnight
What a hero
My favorites I have played with this season so far is Luis Alberto and Franck Kessie.
Had great performances from Ryan Gravenberch
Glen Kamara
Charles De Ketelaere
Tonali is great
Ryan gravenberch.
cool
I play a 32221 (attacking wing backs,2 central mid and 2 shadow strikers).
I have taken Reading to the champions league atm. I have a Aaron Ramsey of villa and he is beast as a shadow striker and Alfie Devine as a DLP he is just a metronome
