I've recently picked up two very promising newgens (admittedly with the help of FM scout) from Bangladesh and Bhutan, there is also a player from Belize that plays for Parma who is going to be the best CB in the world. anyone know what the deal is with these players? is there a certain date when they are created? they don't have clubs and seem to appear randomly in the middle of the season. There was about 10 this season with pa 160+ but most of them just end up retiring because nobody knows they exist.

Regens are rotten.

Can we read people's posts before we answer them stupidly?

Duttz, I am speculating but I think that these players have such random nationalities that they never play at all so they find themselves retiring. Because of their nationalties they can never play in the big leagues and so they are never considered/found by scouts. I also thought that regens are regenerated the day after the national summary screen comes up so perhaps places like Bangledesh have what would be their national summary screen during the middle of the English season?

For all we know, there could be players with amazing potential IRL in Bhutan and Bangladesh, but without so much opportunity to play.. and they will probably in fact end up 'retiring' - i.e. giving up hoping to play for a living.

Screenies for these little gems?

The best player I have seen out of an obscure nation would be this chap -

He was discovered by Leeds when he was 19, I signed him 1 year later for 60k after my scouts thought he would turn out half decent, and after a couple of loan seasons in Spain his attributes shot up drastically. He was ready to make his debut in my first team when he returned, at which point my chairman thought it wise to accept a £2.4 million offer from Chelsea for him. Which I was understandably unhappy about...

So some of them do make it in the big leagues, they just need to be found first. I've tried signing a couple of newgens from little places like Belize/Montressat since then, but most fail to get a work permit and retire. Unfortunate really, since a few had fairly good PA's.

Uh, and people say regens are no good? my god, that player is fantastic.
