I also remember two guys with Mexican sounding names in CM98/99 who played for Real Betis and was totally unplayable. Can't remember the names though.
But I do remember one guy named "Oli" who also played for Real Betis which was great.
Real Betis had some great players in that version.

This!!!!!! Behind the strikers he was amazing. I always remember being excited about him signing for Everton in real life...he was crap.
What was the lad who played for Betis? Alfonso was it? Later on Pablo Piatti was incredible
Are you from Sweden?
Henry saivet needs a mention. Pablo piatti was great too.
Cherno Samba from Millwall! What a legend he was, never heard of him in real life at the time and we still havent.
Edit: Just googled him and found this article. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/33657802

Alexander Farnerud!
Loads mentioned already were legendary for me too like Fleck, Saviola and Van Den Borre.
Giampaulo Pazzini was the best striker stats wise for me.
Kompany even at 17/18
Danny Wilson
Sahin
Akinfeev
Boijnov
Buananotte on later versions.
Frazier Campbell
Torres was a beast aswell!

Tommy Svindal Larsson

Anatoli Todorov
Kennedy Bakircioglu

All mint, but Mark Kerr is the best FM player I've ever had. Didn't matter who you played as, whether you were United, Barca, Coventry, Nantes or Ajax he was always the player to build your team around.

I know he had a decent career but in 03/04 or so Kim Kallstrom had incredible stats and turned into a monster. Kezman is another of course.
The majority of the ones I was thinking of have been mentioned here already

Diego and Robinho - bought together every time.
Alessio Cerci - great Wonderkid. I sent him on loan to AC Milan for one season and he came back the best winger/forward in the world.

Ndlovu and jess were mint in championship manager Italy. Nikiforenko was a 500k signing who guaranteed 20 goals from midfield
