I'm just curious now that I read something Nomis said about regens coming from unusual places. Basically I keep hearing about a lack of top quality regens (though there really are plenty from what I've seen. However there are some problems with some key stats, but that's a different topic) and so I wondered where they are all actually coming from.

In my game for example England lacks any really good midfielders that are younger than 30(national team). However there is a great abundance of young defenders, some wingers and a couple of very good forwards. On to a more global perspective I will list the countries that the top 20 odd regens have come from (my opinion of course).

France 2
Italy 2
Spain 2
Portugal 1
England 4
Turkey 1
Denmark 1
Japan 1
Holland 1
Germany 1
Ukraine 1
Czech 1
Saudi 1
Bahrain 1

This links into my "dom player bias" thread, atm the best newgens in Europe come from Denmark with only 2 players in 2017 under the age of 24 and a PA over 170 from Spain

Can I just ask what your newgen from Saudi Arabia is called? I have 3 in my game 2 CB's and a RB all very good with the RB being the best in the world and moving 3 times in 3 years for a combined transfer fee of £56m. He's called Al Thunyadian (or something along those lines).

I ask because I remember reading a thread a while back where people mentioned a newgen who appeared in 5 different peoples games, he had the same pic, name and position but different attributes and I wondered if the newgens are already created rather than randomly generated.

Strangely enough, most of my regens at celtic have gone on to play in the premiership, and seeing there, i've decided to buy them, though i couldn't give you the best regens in the game.

Although Russia has one that i snapped up for (what i think to be) a bargain 9m

That was Ben Kenny, who is an SI employee inserted into the game. It's similar to adding yourself using an edt file. And he didn't have the same picture or position, unless we're talking about different instances. Other regens are created randomly.

I think it's a different one Canvey!! The one i'm talking about had a facegen of a bald player in all instances, I can't remember tha name and I doubt it is the case that they aren't randomly generated, but i'm just curious.

All my best regens are from Spain.

Hamad Sami was the guy from Saudi Arabia. He's fullback. Infact there are a lot of great 25-30 year old wingbacks and fullbacks in my game.

Also, Brazil seems to be picking up the pace. I now have 3 amazing young Brazillian Strikers, and an even more impressive Winger/ Attacking mid / Forward. Though they are still developing. However Santos, the eldest of them all (23, ST) is doing well this season and the 20 year old I shipped off to Hibernian is tearing up the SPL. So yeah, Brazil will be the next big one to look out for.

Colombia II
Argentina III
Spain III
Germany I
Israel III
England III
Denmark I
Italy II
Paraguay I
Russia I

From what I can tell CA doesn't mean much. Someone told me that Andy Carroll only had a CA of 174... That hasn't stopped him from scoring 314 goals for Derby and 69 in 74 caps for England!

But still, it's good that the game doesn't just make all great regens pop out from one place.
