The big game of the week was at the Etihad where Man City put Liverpool out of the top 4 with a 2-0 win, Tottenham lost to Chelsea but are still just in the fight for top 4. Looking at the bottom Pardew doesnt look like he's going to save Palace who are 9 points of saftey. Villa, Swansea & Wolves are tied for 17th Charlton shouldnt feel safe yet and the rest are a good result of two away from being safe.

We almost held on for a huge victory! Januzaj put us ahead right after Wayne Rooney went off injured. Real took control as we fought to try grab a 2nd on the counter however it was Real who got the 2nd goal. Were still in a great shape for the 2nd leg.

The title winning match. After a goal less 1st half then i showed my anger at half time and we came out on fire in the 2nd half and two quickfire goals from United set us up and the Nani finished the job and clinched the title.

Title is in the bag. Arsenal had the chance to jump Chelsea but went on to loose 4-0 to Spurs who have somehow dragged themselves into the race for 4th. Man Citys defeat at QPR helped this while Liverpool beat Southampton to take the lead in the race for 4th.

The side were not so evenly matched for the 2nd leg. Like in so many of our games the vital goal came right on half time from Gotze. Pressure paid off and the 2nd came from Di Maria and that was it for this game and we made it to the Semi Finals.


Liverpool stun Bayern winning 2-0 in Munich & Man City lost to PSG. Juventus won against Lyon. We got PSG in the Semi Finals.

Match of the season? Match of the decade? What a game! How often do you get a 9 goal thrilller between these two? When there is Man Utd win big & Welbeck scores. Only game of the day so no change to the table.

Cant wait to see how the finish goes!

Ronaldo, Tielmans, Januzaj and Gotze seem to be working out excellent. Ronaldo though, wow. And you said your playing him up front?

Would love you to take a pic when the season finishes of your strongest 11 via the tactics screen :)

My United side dominate games and get a lot of shots on goal similar to you, but the way you absolutely trash teams, simply incredible.

With one game to go Chelsea & Arsenal will fight for 2nd. Arsenal have to win and chelsea have to loose to have a turn around. Liverpool have secured 4th so Tottenham & Man City will play for extra summer holidays and a later start to there European challenge. At the bottom villa went down today so its Wolves vs Swansea with Wolves needing to win and hope Swansea loose.

We had this wrapped up by half time when we were 3-0 up. Southampton got the second half started in the best possible way with a goal from Fetfatzidis but later in the 2nd half Ronaldo & Gotze got a 2nd each to secure back to back doubles. Now for the treble.

The double treble is complete! The result mask the most amazing 1st half we've seen. 6 goals were scored in the first 20 minute including 2 own goals from ourselves. Ronaldo put us ahead for good just before the break then Nani & a second by Di Maria secured a 2nd season as Champions of Europe.

Ronaldo is a monster! To beat someone like Aguero would score a stunning 30 goals, 4 off the old Premiership record but 20 off Ronaldo who found 76 goals overall.






End of Season awards

Premiership

View attachment 303094



Chelsea
Retained there 2 place finish after a season long battle with Arsenal. Main players Hazard, Diego Costa & Fabregas all had poor seasons. Defeat to Juventus at the last 16 was a shock but not as much as there 3-0 defeat to Bristol City in the 5th round of the FA Cup. 5th round of the capital cup too as they lost on pens to Wolves. Squad needs a shake up over the summer and started in January adding Jordy Clasie & Kria Papadopoulos.

Arsenal
A big recovery after failing to make the top 4 last season they were our biggest treats for most of this season. Dropped of significantly in the second half of the season after an amazing start. Like ourselves they lifted a domestic cup, the League Cup with a 5-1 win against Southampton. They fell just short in Europe as the went on a 5 game loosing streak in all competitions including the decisive defeat to Spurs in the Europa League Semi Finals. Everton knocked them out of the FA Cup in the 4th round


Liverpool
Drop a place to 4th butim pretty sure they would settle for that after Arsenal stepped it up so much. Were usually in the 4th place or just ahead of the chasing pack. Aston Villa put them out of the League Cup just before Christmas. Charlton shocked them in the FA Cup. Europe was Liverpools highlight reel for the year. Beating Porto & Bayern on there way to the Champions League Semi on away goals.


Man City
1 goal was all that could split Man City & Tottenham. Were never looking like they would break into the top 4 despite the biggest spending season outside ourselves adding 5 players in January to get them back into the European race. There League cup challenge ended with a 5-4 defeat to eventual champions Arsenal, who's neighbors Sprus put them out of the FA Cup. Again there highlight of the season was the Champions League run where they reached the Quarter Finals loosing 3-2 to PSG.


Tottenham
A horrific first 10 games should have ended any European ambitions but a good 2nd half recovery seen them get into the fight for Champions League. In the end they had to settle for Europa League again but this seasons Europa League was one of the clubs Greatest triumphs. There run to the Semi's was standard enough but to beat neighbors Arsenal in the Semi's then once in the final they thumped Valencia 4-0 to lift this trophy for the 3rd time. The FA Cup run ended at the 6th round loosing to Southampton. Man City put them out of the League cup 4th round,


Everton
Botch of the season. In relegation trouble till the spring where they hit a sweet spot to get them up to 10th which is much more than they delivered.




Other Leagues


Without Ronaldo Real finished 10 points off Barcelona while Espanyol are the team that shock us in 4th while Ath Madrid drop into the Europa League.

In Serie A Carlos Tevez tore the League up again but his team were beaten to the title by Roma. Inter join them in the Champions League while AC Milan are still well out of the European spots.
