Football Manager 2016: 20 Defensive Midfielders You Need To Sign

8. Victor Wanyama

BRUTE. If you're in the market for a midfielder who can dish out legitimate pain to opposing strikers, here's your man. Spaghetti-loving Victor Wanyama could genuinely slot into any side in the world if you use him correctly. That may not be the case in real life, but on FM2016, the Southampton man comes with 20 Strength, 17 Stamina, 16 Natural Fitness, 19 Balance, 19 Bravery, 17 Aggression, 17 Work Rate and 17 Tackling. He is utterly relentless. If you deploy him as an anchorman, Wanyama will batter teams that dare to approach him. Every team needs a physical presence like him.
