Football Manager 2016: 14 English Wonderkids You Have To Sign
12. Dael Fry
Dael Fry joins Chapman in the Boro reserve ranks, but he's a defensive prospect, and a damn good one at that. Whenever you're in the market, what are the first things you look for? Heading, Marking, Tackling, Determination, Positioning, Bravery, Jumping, Strength? 14, 11, 12, 15, 11, 16, 13 respectively. The 17-year-old has great attributes in all the right places and could easily be loaned out to a lower league side as soon as you've poached him away from Middlesbrough. Another bonus of signing Fry is his relative speed. Pace is an increasing necessity in many defensive systems, and at 13, he can certainly hold his own.
