This FM 2013 Player Profile of Francesco Bardi is probably one nobody expected. Mainly due to the fact he rarely ever develops under AI management, well a reader named Jacok took the punt on this wonderkid and came up trumps. He developed the young Italian into a very solid keeper, with only throwing and kicking seen as poor a weakness. Such was his development that Bardi still has many years to iron out those creases at just 23 years of age.

I think the average ratings while playing for Everton tell a story also, always above 7 and even managing 7.32 at the start of 2015, which is brilliant for someone stood between the sticks. Yes this keeper has weakness’, but they can be sorted and he’s probably the most solid potentially for the asking price of just £2 million.

Best buy rating: 9/10
