FM27 Guy Scout is a free scouting tool for Football Manager 27, in the style of Genie Scout. Made by Guy Chelouche, it reads the game while you play and shows every player, staff member and club, with hidden attributes, current ability and potential. It also opens in your browser, takes about 2 MB and already has a Portuguese interface.

What Guy Scout brings
- Player search: general, contract, attribute, hidden attribute, personality and role rating filters.
- Full profile: for example, colour-coded attributes, CA and PA, projected attributes at potential, traits, contract and release clauses.
- Staff and clubs: staff search with coaching stars and a rating for each job, plus every club’s profile.
- Shortlists and export: named shortlists you import into and export from FM, comparison of up to four players and CSV and HTML export.
- Save snapshots: save the database and open it again later, even without FM running.

Download – FM27 Guy Scout v0.5.0 (Windows)
- First, open FM27 and load your save.
- Then open
GuyScout-FM27-Lite.exe. It needs no install and opens your browser athttp://localhost:4827. - Next, click «Load game». Reading about 100,000 people takes a few seconds.
- Finally, keep the console window open while you use the app. If you close it, Guy Scout stops.
Things to watch
On the first launch, the app downloads Node once, so it needs internet at that point. After that it works offline and sends nothing. Also, Windows and some antivirus tools may warn you, because an unsigned program that reads another app’s memory looks like a trainer. However, it only reads the game and never writes to your save. Finally, if you would rather not see attributes, try FM Shadow Scout, and for another option with attributes see FMSuperScout.
