So we fired out a tweet with a simple challenge - give us 3 players from your gallery that nobody is talking about, who you hope to have a great season ahead.
If you're not already following us on Twitter, @TheSorareSocial is YOU!
Here are a few of the most interesting shouts we got, and our rating out of 10 on the likelihood of them hitting those green scores we all like to see! Let's dive into the Sorare Data!
THE SHOUTS!
@mikeleefoo
Maurits Kjaergaard
Rating: 8/10
Yep, a solid shout here - with Seiwald moving on, and Sucic likely to spend a couple more months out injured at the beginning of the season, Kjaergaard should become one of the first names on the teamsheet alongside the likes of Gourna-Douath and Oscar Gloukh. His SO5 historic scoring shows us what he's capable of already.
@Azzymac2
Yuta Nakayama
Rating: 6/10
Nakayama missed most of last season with an achilles injury that ruled him out of Japan's World Cup squad. While this is a great shout in a Huddersfield team that may not be minting new cards, Nakayama will be competing with Josh Ruffels for his place in the starting XI after a good season last term which poses a risk to holders. If he can nail the starting spot though, this could be a really great shout.

Nikolas Veratschnig
Rating: 9/10
We had to do some digging for this one. A player who certainly seems to have some potential in a side that should be expected to improve next season. A potential bargain here as well if he can replicate the kind of AA scoring we saw from him at the end of last season. He can play as a RW or a RB so also allows for some rotation in the squad without losing his place in the starting XI. Intriguing shout and we'll be keeping a keen eye on this one!

Marcel Hartel
Rating: 8/10
With St Pauli narrowly missing out on promotion, this season is expected to be a strong one in Bundesliga2. Marcel Hartel is coming into his prime, sitting in the midfield and taking set pieces for a side who we can expect goals from, this guy could be an SO5 matrix monster for the season ahead. We like this shout a lot!
Big thanks to all the Sorare community who got stuck in on this subject. There were a lot of interesting shouts on this one and plenty of food for thought on the season ahead! Any of these take your fancy?
