Finally it's in the bag![/h]
I didn't know this was possible without cheating.
I have completed a clean sweep of all the competitions we entered! And what's most pleasing is that we have finally captured the Champions League title!! Having lost it in the finals for the past two seasons, I wasn't too optimistic going into the finals against our noisy neighbours Man City. And this happened!
Champions League Final
I have always been worried about facing our city rivals as they never fail to spot gaps in our defence.Jovetic and Aguero were constant threats as usual and it was no surprise to see them on the scoresheet. Thankfully, they couldn't cope with our aerial prowess and we scored two from set-pieces. Lewandowskiscored in injury time as well and it was a sweet sweet victory!!!
EPL
This is our best performance yet in the league with the most points and best goal difference. We were always comfortable and kept our nearest rivals out of reach, winning the league eventually by 13 points. There was a familiar look about the table at the end with all the big clubs finishing in the top 6.
Some proud moments
A surprise winner for the player of the year! What I am most happy about is the fact that he's English! I am really proud!
Three players named in the team of the year!
We score great goals
League Cup
It was our second consecutive League Cup victory with us narrowly beating West Brom in the finals after overcoming Arsenal over two legs. Antonio Valencia grabbed the all important goal.
FA Cup
We came from behind and beat Everton 3-1 in the FA Cup final to complete the fantastic clean sweep!
Clean sweep!
After a great season, lets now look back on the players' performances and I will pick out the star players of their positions.
Players' Analysis
Goalkeeper
There is no doubt who's the star performer in this position with him winning the golden glove yet again. Made some brilliant and crucial saves throughout the course of the season. How I wish he's English!
Defenders
I would like to mention both Shawcross and Smalling , who have both gone on to form a formidable partnership in the central defence. On top of their defensive solidity, they contributed ten goals in total and it's a great bonus to have! What's more, they are both English and Shawcross graduated from the United Academy! Great stuff!
Midfielders
Clearly, Tom Ince is the star man, having won EPL's player of the year. Like Ince, Zaha won 5 player of the match awards and deserved the honorable mention.
Strikers
Welbeck is the club's top scorer with 31 goals in all competitions. However, Rooney is the more all-rounded striker this season with 23 goals and 20 assists in a productive season. They would certainly form a deadly partnership should Roy Hodgson decide to pair them up for England.
Summary
All in all, what a great season! Having won everything, I am really looking forward to the Club World Championship and the European Super Cup as I have not won these competitions. It's really pleasing to see all the English players doing well and I will finally be bringing a couple of regens through to the first-team next season as they are developing well. There's a really talented central defender and an explosive left winger lurking in the reserves. I will post up screenshots of them in the next update!
Rolling on to the 4th season!
With lots of love,

fantastic season! congrats!
Thanks you are the best! Are there any other readers out there?
Its a shame you sold B?ttner, cause in my save he was such a solid back-up. When he played his rating was always above 7.0

Keep the updates coming! I love it!

Becks is the new England manager![/h]
England Manager
This was a no-brainer with Roy Hodgson stepping down. I expressed my interest, applied for the job and got it!
Shocking Retirement!
I was devastated to see this! I tried calling Rooney out of retirement but he won't answer my call. Anyone succeeded in calling players out of retirement on this version yet?
Bias or not?
Solid Start
Amid all the problems, it was a solid start with the national team.
Charity Shield
Back to United, it was one of those days. We had the better of the chances, couldn't convert and lost on penalties in the end!
Super Cup
This time, I had the luck and won on penalties! I really wanted to add this to our trophy haul and was really glad to have won!

Pre-season and August update (Season 5)[/h]
Transfers
The pair of young english central midfielders were brought in. I know James Ward-Prowse is a little expensive but I have a soft spot for him as he was tipped by the media to be the next David Beckham! Both of them will compete for the DLP-d role in the MC position.
Strongest 11
As usual, I will be rotating my team a lot this season but if I have to win the game at all costs, I will play my strongest 11 as shown above.
Second String
And here are the remaining players outside the strongest 11.
Here are a few screenshots of the regens in my first-team squad.
Henry Dykes - a left-sided Gary Neville
Very pacy and strong, brave and determined with great work rate. Reminds me of a left-sided Gary Neville.
Mark Brightwell - the next Steve Bruce
Great tackler, strong and has great concentration and work rate. Scores very regularly at set-pieces, just like Steve Bruce.
Reid - Giggsy?
Great technique, quick and lots of flair. The closest we have as a replacement for Giggsy!
Games
Pre-season was eventful with testimonials for Michael Carrick and Tim Howard. We also went on a pre-season tour to Korea. It was heart-break for us in the Community Shield as we lost on penalties for the second consecutive year. We didn't start well at all as Newcastle went 2-0 up in the first-half. After a hairdryer treatment at half-time, we went out and managed to draw level. We did not manage to find the winning goal and lost on penalties at the end.
We started the league with a comfortable 2-0 away win at Cardiff. There were mistakes galore at Sheff Wed and we went 2-0 down very quickly after Chris Smalling conceded a penalty and allowed Agbonlahorthrough easily. Like the Community Shield match against Newcastle, I gave the hairdryer and they came out playing much better and thankfully, we managed to ****** a point at the end via a Tom Ince Fergie Time goal.
We ended the month on a high with a comfortable 4-0 victory at Old Trafford against Stoke.

With regards to the English national team bias, try to use English players from teams like Cardiff, Southampton teams like those with great youth facilities.
I dont really care about the bias to be honest! The quality of English players we have at United are better than the ones outside and they understand the tactical system I wanna play the best

September Update[/h]
September games - Man United
It was a great month, with us winning all 6 games. We started off with the Super Cup against Schalke and went 1-0 down to a penalty right in the first minute.Thankfully, we grew into the game and manage to secure the win deep into extra time. Next, we beat Derby at Old Trafford and Nick Powell scored the goal of the month with a powerful run and finish. I was pleased to see him growing into the complete forward role upfront and I am backing him to eventually replace Wayne Rooney. He's developing nicely and if you guys want a screenshot, you can request it and I will put it up here!
Danny Welbeck grabbed the superb hat-trick against PSV at home and helped us to a 3-0 win in our second champions league fixture. We followed up with an important away win in the league against Everton and that helped us leapfrog the Toffees to lead the table. Capital One Cup was next and we were handed a tough away tie against Tottenham. Will Hughes volleyed in from the corner powerfully to give us a narrow 2-1 victory. We ended the month on a high with a comfortable 5-0 home win against Burnley, with Welbeck keeping up his great scoring form as he helped himself to two more goals.
England
I had two games with England in the same month and managed to secure 6 points, including a record win!
San Marino Away
I know it's only San Marino but well, it was a satisfying win!
Regens doing me proud!
It was great to see my regens getting into the TOTW!
Cleverley wants to stay!
And to end off, I was glad to see Tom Cleverley finally backing down in his transfer request! He's one of my favourite players at United and I was upset to see him wanting to pursue a challenge elsewhere. Thankfully, he decided to stay!

October Update[/h]
United fixtures
After a perfect September, October was always going to be more disappointing. We started off with a great 6-0 victory against Molde with legend Wayne Rooney grabbing the hat-trick. Arsenal beat us at Emirates in our next game and while we were impotent upfront, the Gunners scored twice through set-pieces to do a smash and grab victory. The next two victories were satisfying due to the fact that Tom Cleverley scored in two consecutive games. He even scored the winning goal away against Lyon and I was glad to see him back to his best after his decision to stay at the club. We ended the month with another disappointing result, this time at Carrow Road when we conceded a sloppy equalizer straight from a long throw.
Table
Here's how the table looks after October. There was an unfamiliar look about the table at the top with Norwich and Nottingham Forest gatecrashing the top 4. We are still 2 points ahead after a disappointing October and that's reassuring to see.
England fixtures
It was a tough month with England having to travel for two away games and thankfully we ended the qualifying campaign with two tough wins against solid oppositions.
Nick Powell scores great goals
It was another goal of the month award for Nick Powell as he smashed one in from range against Fulham. This guy scores great goals!

I don't know why David Moyes hasn't recalled Nick Powell from Wigan, he has been doing great in real life. Glad to see him do so well for you!
Man United fixtures
Things have been on the up after a disappointing October. We started off with a great win at our great rivals Leeds with Danny Welbeck grabbing all five goals. Having improved his composure through training, he has grown to be very impressive in the advance forward role upfront and is very much first choice forEngland. We followed up the win with three home victories, sandwiching a 5-0 champions league win against Lyon between wins against Watford and Nottingham Forest in the league.
Next up was a tough trip to Newcastle, where Phil Jones got himself sent off after a two-footed challenge. We managed to hang on to a 1-1 draw after Chris Smalling's goal from a set-piece. We ended Novemberwith a thrilling 4-3 away victory against PSV, with Nick Powell grabbing two decent goals. Old boy Alex Buttner was unlucky as he got the ball in the wrong net.
Table
After a better month, we continue to lead the table with Norwich the surprise package of the season on second place after signing some decent players like England striker Daniel Sturridge. Nottingham Forestand Everton complete an unfamiliar looking top 4, with the giants all further behind.
England fixtures
We had two friendlies against decent oppositions and I was happy to see us seal two victories with two clean sheets. Danny Welbeck continued his great form in November to complete a brilliant hat-trick against Ukraine in their own backyard. Jack Wilshere and Harry Kane found the back of the net against Tunisiaat Wembley.
Are there anyone out there enjoying this thread? I am looking to switch to a different save but if there are still people out there reading this, I will continue writing
