The first month of the new year has been a tale of resolution and revolution at Los Wonderkids. As you'll know, the vintage LW team came back to the site with a blatant intent to produce the finest FM discussion you can find on the internet. What you don't know is that we've been plotting away once more. Never happy standing still, we've been designing and producing a number of things behind the scenes; those will feature in one of the next Spotlight editions, for now we're going to take a look at the outstanding contributions from the Wonderkids this month. The story section has gone from strength to strength over the last few months and January was not a disappointment. Skacel has been busy with Ajax, although he...

The standard for most people when they start a new game is to load up a variety of nations and leagues that they are comfortable with - often the standard leagues loaded are England, Spain and Italy.

The league fought a bitter legal battle with its players over its economic system, but thi...

I'm writing this explicitly on the pretence you know the club Shakhtar Donetsk (they're a really fucking rich club in the former Soviet Bloc). Shakhtar are a huge club. Fucking massive. They're rich too, indeed the arms dealing, smuggling and prostitution games all need places to launder money, in recent years various eastern European clubs have received huge influxes of cold hard cash (FC Sheriff Tiraspol, Bunyodkor Toshkent and Shakhtar being prime examples) with the only pre-requisite being no questions asked. Of course this money is put to use forming fabulous squads of Brazillians, overpaid and underplayed. But how is this being transferred into the game? Well it seems, with Shakhtar Donetsk in mind, the game hasn'...
