3. The Midfield Maestros: Engines and Artists

This is where the "New Generation" shines. The database is packed with midfielders who can run a game from day one. CM 01/02: The New Generation Wonderkids – Scouting

Where to Play the "New" Wonderkids

• The Tsigalko Role (Scoring): Endrick or Haaland. Put them up front alone or in a pair, set as "Target Man - Run onto ball."
• The Kennedy Bakircioglu Role (Assists): Florian Wirtz or Jamal Musiala. Play them on the left wing or AMC with "Free Role" ticked.
• The Mark Kerr Role (Workhorse): Gavi or Eduardo Camavinga. Sign them, put them in Centre Midfield with a "Hard Tackling" order, and forget them for 15 years.

1. Stefan Selakovic (Sweden) – The Anti-Källström

Everyone knows Kim Källström. He is the obvious choice. But the "new" meta pick is Stefan Selakovic (Halmstad BK).

In the old days, we ignored him because of his "8" for Long Shots. That was a mistake.

• New Role: Modern Inside Forward (Right)
• Peak Value: £35 million after two seasons.
• Why he is "New": He develops "Likes to beat offside trap" as a hidden trait, which the original guides never mentioned.
