Tottenham 1-4 Man Utd
View attachment 309229
Another huge away win against one of the leagues best sides. Falcao had the game won with a hatrick by half time. No more action till the last 10 minutes when Rooney made it 4 and Zozulya gave Spurs some consolation for a bad day at the office.


Streak Stat "27"
Miami Heat had a 27 game unbeaten streak in NBA in 2013

Chelsea kept up there brilliant season with a win at Stoke. Liverpool missed a chance to catch Spurs by loosing at home to Newcastle. Everton & Man City both wins while Arsenal drew at bottom side to put themselves in a real dangerous position of not getting into Europe.




 

Week 28


Crystal Palace 2-2 Man Utd
View attachment 309194
Its all over! We dropped 2 points as our back up side let in a 92nd equalizer from Rickie Lambert. I got caught in the middle of changing tactics as Rooney had scored what looked like the 3rd goal in the 91st minute but it was chopped off and that in the end ruined our historic streak.

This was not only a huge knockout game but also a trial for the League game that could clinch the title if we get the win. We get a bit of luck with the 6th round draw and go up against Middlesbrough.



 

Week 29


Charlton 2-2 Man Utd
View attachment 309154
A aweful end to a aweful few games. We had this in hand till the Premier Leagues youngest scorer Arran Welch added a O'G to his cv. Hernandez quickly had United back in front but Church's 71st minute goal still gave us 20 minutes to find a winner but we just couldnt do it tonight.

What a day. Chelsea, United & Liverpool all draw while Tottenham loose. Everton, Man City & Arsenal all won as the battle for 3rd just got real interesting as has the battle for the title. If Chelsea win there games in hands there is only 3 points in it.

Ath Madrid 4-3 Man Utd
View attachment 309152
What a game! We led through Falcao but two goals from the home side before Falcao's penalty leveled it up at half time. Mandzukic came through from half time to put Madrid ahead and looked good for a win before a O'G from Obiak brought it level again. Once again though a stoppage time goal from Malcom gave Madrid the Advantage going to the 2nd leg.

4 goals from Falcao saw us back into the comfortable winning club. The game was done by half time and Falcao's final goal was just insult to injury.

A dominating 1st half performance saw United overcome the odds and reach the Quarter Finals. Let the rest of the competition be less stressful.

Lots of Shocks to report. Defending champs Chelsea went out to Barcelona. Zenith knocked out Real Madrid and Benfica dropped Spurs out. In the Quarter Finals we will face Napoli with the 1st leg in Italy.

Wow what was happening with our shots today. 4/20 on target. Dominated the game but didnt work Forster enough by the looks of things. Puts a delay on our title celebrations!


Table

Bad week for Chelsea who drew today with West Brom but also lost to Swansea in mid week. 3rd place Tottenham drew with 4th place Everton. Arsenal beat Liverpool in another top 7 clash and Man City beat Hull. 4th to 7th split by 2 points and Spurs in 3rd just 3 points ahead of that scrap.



 

Week 33


Man Utd 3-0 Everton

Champions!!!! results went our way so we keep the title. Everton are the form team coming into the final two months of the season and put up quite a fight at Old Trafford but this is our time and we had it won early enough to ease up for the upcoming Napoli match

Chelsea lost which means we've won the league till trying to go unbeaten. Tottenhams draw with Villa makes both ends of the table messy. Liverpool & Arsenal won and Man Citys defeat saw City fall a win off the pack. At the bottom well where do you start? Blackburn are gone. West Brom are all but gone then with 18th placed Villa on 30 points and 13th place Palace on 34 points its anyone's game for 18th.

What a performance! Pogba gave us a early lead but it looked like it would all be for nothing when Maro Fellaini was sent off but Utd dug there heels in and in the end we got a very late 2nd away goal from Falcao who came off the bench.

Chelsea win but still need 3 points to secure 2nd with all Liverpools games in hand. Tottenhams thrashing at Chelsea drops them out of the top 4 for the 1st time in ages. Everyone else in the top 7 won.

Perhaps went to strong with my squad but still got most of the 2nd half for youth players and its not the time to go full back up in a Champions League QF


Only one shock but it was nearly two. Porto put out Barca 3-2 why Bayern needed away goals to put out Benfica. Its Porto who we got in the Semi Finals

What a awesome result. Any player that needed a rest was given the day off and i seriously thought our unbeaten season was in big trouble till about the 47th minute.

Top two were locked in long ago. Liverpool look good for a top 4 finish. Arsenal, Everton or Spurs should get the other spot, 1 point between them and a big ask for Man City who are 3 points behind. Nothing settled for the final relegation spot. West Ham have it just now 4 teams are within 3 points of them.

A great Wembely performance to take us to the Final. Dare i say the word treble? Well the Double is all but done. Only Norwich stand in our way after they thrashed Huddersfield in the Semi final 5-1.

This was a demolishion. Porto gave us a huge favor by going down to 10 men after only 26 minutes left the floodgates open and failing a total meltdown we'll be in the final.



 
You are tearing up the competition. I used your tactics and had my best game of the season too.

For a change Arsenal were never out of and it was a nervous game as it came closer to the end.


Table

Liverpool are in the top 4 in all but name. Everton , spurs & Arsenal will fight for the final Champions League spot. Man City should get a Europa League spot if we win the FA cup i think!. At the bottom its now between 3 teams. Newcastle only need a draw to stay up but have a trip to Chelsea so will be left relying on other results. West Ham also face mission impossible at Man City except City have nothing to play for. Aston Villa are the team in biggest danger. They are at home to Southampton but have a much worse goal difference.


Champions League S/F 2nd Leg
Man Utd 2-0 Porto - Agg Man Utd 7-0 Porto
View attachment 308860This game was about taking it easy not working to hard and not getting injurys! Phil Jones has a battle to make our two cup finals now!


We'll play Bayern Munich in the San Siro for the final after they saw off PSG 3-2 on aggrigate. Unlike the 1999 final only Utd can take a treble as despite dominating the League Bayern were out of the cup at the Semi finals

Wow this has been amazing! Lets hope you can go rest of the season unbeaten in the league and bring the CL and FA Cup to Old Trafford as well!

Might have been my weakest team i put out all season but should have still had too much for Blackburn. But that aside we went unbeaten through the whole season.

Apart from ourselves the top 5 all won to secure there Champions League spots or Europa League for Spurs. Arsenal had a shameful draw to Charlton but salvaged a Europa League spot from an abysmal season, which is more than can be said for Man City who won to relegate West Ham but but still not secured a European Spot yet.

Norwich vs Man Utd
Injurys have played a huge part in our build up. Phil Jones, Nani & Di Maria all went down during the past few weeks. Falcao also didnt make it back. Falcao is looking like the only one that will make next week.


Norwich 1-4 Man Utd
View attachment 308803
Wayne Rooney joins the exclusive list of players to score a hattrick in the final taking full advantage of the lower league opposition & Falcao's injury. I wonder how many team can say there past 2 Fa Cup wins were to lower League opposition as United win there 1st FA Cup since 2004 against Milwall to complete the double. 1 game to take a treble.

Bayern Munich Vs Man Utd
A repeat of the 1999 final except were in Milan rather than Barcelona. After injury worrys Falcao & Phil Jones both just make it back for this final. Di Maria & Nani miss out.


Bayern Munich 1-2 Man Utd
View attachment 308793
A classic final. A very close game which we led from the 33rd minute thanks to a goal from Valencia who was only playing thanks to injurys. A second half was quiet till Falcao hit the dagger of a second goal. Late action could have turned it Bayerns way as first a Lewandowski pulled one back then Jones was sent off in stoppage time. Despite these blows we held on to win our second treble in club history and to do it against Bayern again was extra special.
