Hopeless youth pulls who made it big

It always makes me happy to see my unheralded youth pulls make it big. Here are two of NEO's finest products:

A hell of a purchase for me. He's been the pillar of my defense allowing me to compete at Div III, even though my keeper is only Outstanding. One day, he will also become the coach of the Gargs . . . Sorry that you won't get any more transfer fees out of him :(

I remembered this topic and one of my former guys showed up on the bid screen today. Here's his previous transfer stats:

Transfers for Waldo Oakes

Date From To Price TSI then
4/18/2006 Old Town Tavern FC Ares Linz 2 200 000 US$ 15 670
8/15/2005 Elkjaer Old Town Tavern 1 020 000 US$ 5 020
1/6/2005 Vermont Blizzard Elkjaer 19 000 US$ 640


And his current stats:

Waldo Oakes (50657720)
23 years, weak form, healthy
I speak US English!

A pleasant guy who is calm and infamous.
Has poor experience and weak leadership abilities.

Nationality: USA
Total Skill Index (TSI): 29 070
Wage: 8 256 US$/week including 20% Bonus
Owner: FC Ares Linz
Warnings: 1
Injuries: Healthy

Stamina: excellent Goalkeeping: disastrous
Playmaking: outstanding Passing: poor
Winger: world class Defending: inadequate

Not too shabby for a guy who originally sold for 19k.

This is the best one I have but it does involve another FOFC'er, too :)

I had a little different scenario come up today. I was looking to upgrade to a brilliant defender and had some players that would be selling today around 11:40 to free up some money. Then at 11:30 I saw that a former youth pull of mine was going to be up for sale and he just happened to be a brilliant defender. So I bought him back. :)
