10 times Football Manager predicted the future

Football Manager 2017 was released on November 4, 2016

#2 The Late Bloomer

Deco won the Champions League with Porto

In 1997, a young Deco arrived at Portuguese club Benfica trying to make it big. But poor performances saw the 19-year-old go to second division side Alverca on loan. The Football Manager team saw the young boy’s amazing technique and labelled him a future superstar even though he displayed patchy form.

The game again got it spot on as Deco’s late rise came at Jose Mourinho’s Porto where he won the Champions League. And again at Barcelona. He also won league titles in four different countries.

FM turned Deco into Midas, touching silverware everywhere he went.
