Manchester United - The New Breed of Red Devils

[Worthy15]

What tactics are you using? I am finding it difficult to score goals in my United save.

 

[coolmcool]

Didn't realise Dybala had quite such good attributes.

What a regen name, he Dunn-Ya!

Dybala has always been top notch for me i always sign him whenever i have the chance. thanks for following

I didn't know Mata was so inuury prone! He's had a nightmare of a season as far as injuries go!

Yeah he has really struggled for form so far this season, the injuries have really messed him up as he has played well when he gets a few games under his belt

Premier League
Burnley 2 - 2 Man Utd

View attachment 72068View attachment 72069

An awful result against some poor opposition, it was a real back and forth game with both sides having plenty of chances but neither going for the win.

Both of the Youth Intake Stars made their debuts

Thats more like it! We were all over them with Lukaku netting a penalty early on before Rashford added the second with not long left

We have now guaranteed a Top 4 Finish

View attachment 72062

Now thats more like it! After the boring 1-1 draw in Italy we were all over them here with Lukaku in fine form, the likes of Mkhitaryan and Lingard performed well with Dybala ineligible

We get a very favourable draw and will face Spartak Moscow in the Quarter Finals

Premier League
Newcastle 2 - 2 Man Utd

View attachment 72058

And we end the month how we started it! With a shocker of a draw against a team we should have comfortably beat, They missed a penalty before Pogba got sent off early on in the second half, i then thought we had done amazing to then net twice with only 10 minutes but Ings netted a late brace and we just about held on to the draw.

6 games left of the season and we are 4 points clear of Arsenal with a game in hand but those two draws have hurt us

View attachment 72057

Lukaku has been brilliant for us so far this season with 32 goals in just 38 starts

Champions League Quarter Finals 1st Leg
Man Utd 3 - 0 Spartak Moscow

View attachment 71928

A comfortable victory against Spartak with the 3 goals all important when we still have to go to Moscow for the second leg, Ibrahimovic had a mare but Rashford more than made up for it.

Premier League
Stoke 1 - 0 Man Utd

View attachment 71927

An absolute shocker! How we can go from beating Spartak so easily to lose to Stoke, the likes of Lukaku back from his injury and Rashford fresh from his 2 goals had awful games

Ibrahimovic hasnt netted in 8 games

View attachment 71926

Champions League Quarter Final 2nd Leg
Spartak Moscow 3 - 3 Man Utd

View attachment 71924

We went ahead 3 times in this game but Adriano pegged us back each time and they saw out the draw on the night, it was 6-3 on aggregate though so didnt mean a lot.

We draw Man City in the Semi Final with the other Semi Final Chelsea versus At Madrid

View attachment 71923

Premier League
Man Utd 4 - 0 Brighton

View attachment 71922

A solid second half display especially for Lukaku as Martial nets a brace of penalties before a couple of late goals as they started to tire adds the shine to the scoreline

The press believe we can break our record for Most League Wins in a season as we are currently on 25 wins with 28 the record

View attachment 71921

Premier League
Man Utd 2 - 2 Liverpool

View attachment 71920

This was actually a better result for us in the end than it looks, it was pretty even in the first half before they netted twice before the break, we managed to come back into the game with 2 good second half goals and really pushed for the winner but it wasnt their to be had.

Liverpool's new Manager was Leonardo Jardim

View attachment 71919

Champions League Semi Final 1st Leg
Man City 2 - 3 Man Utd

View attachment 71918

A brilliant result as we beat Man City for the third time this season! We came from behind thanks to an Raheem Sterling screamer of a goal, i really thought Jones had won it for us with a beautiful header from a corner. It wasnt to be as Fernandinho netted the equalizer and i really thought we would play out the draw but Martial popped up just 2 minutes later for the winner and an all important 3rd away goal

Marcus Rashford is my Player of the Month with some important goals this month, in just 25 starts and 20 sub appearances he has netted 21 goals and has 12 assists which for a 20 year old is awesome.

View attachment 71915

4 points clear of second placed Chelsea and Arsenal with a game in hand and the league is now ours to lose, going out of the other two cups fairly early may well have helped us with fatigue and doing so well in the Champions League!

Champions League Semi Final 2nd Leg
Man Utd 3 - 0 Man City

View attachment 71855

Well this tie was pretty much settled for us when Fernandinho got sent off inside 10 minutes of the match! Van Dijk netted around half an hour in before Mata got a brace to seal the tie with a 6-2 aggregate win

Its an all Premiership Champions League Final as we face Chelsea a team we have lost to 1-0 early on in the season and then beaten a little later on 3-2

View attachment 71853

1 win from my final 3 league games of the season will guarantee the Title so i have decided to play my second string and rest the first team for the Champions League Final

Premier League
Man Utd 3 - 2 Leicester

View attachment 71852

It was all looking good for the second string as we went 3-0 up inside the opening half an hour with Ibrahimovic breaking his goal duck for the season with a brace and Fellaini netting the other but Leicester came back into it as our side started to tire from lack of match fitness and we only just about held on for the win

MAN UTD WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE

View attachment 71850

Something i really didnt think we would achieve first season especially with my limited transfer movements

Premier League
Watford 4 - 1 Man Utd

View attachment 71848

Well that went absolutely terrible, Ibrahimovic netted early on but that was as good as it got with Watford all over us and me trying to go for a more attacking intent only made it worse for us with the icing on the cake Mata missing a late penalty.

Premier League
Tottenham 5 - 1 Man Utd

View attachment 71847

More of the same from my shocker of a second string, i was hoping for at least a bit of effort and maybe a narrow win, i hope it hasnt affect the team morale for the first team and the Final

We still ended the season 6 points clear of second placed Arsenal with Chelsea and Tottenham rounding off the top 4, whilst it was Huddersfield, Swansea and Brighton who got relegated

Champions League Final
Man Utd 2 - 2 Chelsea
Man Utd Win on Penalties

View attachment 71836

Well it was one **** of a game and had absolutely everything in it! Pogba netted around half an hour in before Willian equalized, we were then helped out like in the last Champions League game as the other team had an early sending off, Captain Cahill was sent off but not long after Hazard put them ahead!
Hazard went off injured just before half time though and i thought surely we should be able to turn the game around from this, Mkhitaryan netted a quick goal in the second half and i thought we were going to really turn the game on its head but we couldnt get that winner despite the extra man.

It went all the way to penalties, which didnt fill me with confidence after the amount of penalties i have seen my side miss this season but it was down to former Chelsea player Matic to net the winning Penalty!!

View attachment 71834

Manchester United do the double! After our indifferent start to my reign i really cant believe i sit here having won the double, i think it may well be my first ever time in winning the Champions League in the very first season with any club, and to do it with just two signings.

View attachment 71833

Despite just winning the ****** thing we only have one player make the Champions League Dream Team!!

Budget is around £57Million but with wiggling the wages around i can get it up to closer to £70Million

So the entire £70Million transfer budget goes on the Real Madrid RB Dani Carvajal

RB was defintley an area we needed to strengthen as Darmian has been playing a lot of his football last season at LB leaving us with just Valencia to play in the RB slot and hes well into his thirties now

So Phil Jones really made this match hard for me getting sent off seconds after we scored the first goal, they came out all guns blazing in the second half and netted a couple of goals to turn the game on its head, we came back into the game after a few subs but then Van Dijk went and gave away a penalty and got sent off, they scored from that penalty but our 9 men still managed a bit of a min fight back with Martial netting a late consolation

Our deal for Carvajal is the biggest of the window and the Premier League as a whole was only £8Million shy of the £1Billion spending mark with Arsenal the highest spenders on several players coming to £132Million, you can tell Arsene Wenger had retired with that sort of spending

2-0 up inside 10 minutes and the tie looked like it was all over but i was nearly the maker of my own downfall after i made all my subs shortly before Mata went off injured, our 10 men then conceded just 2 minutes later before they battered our defence for the remainder of the game

So i thought i would play a couple of the younger players with Henderson in goal and Wilson upfront but Wilson had an awful game! We were 1-0 down inside 11 minutes and never looked like scoring, in the second half i had to throw on Lukaku and he netted a quick brace to seal the win

We get a really tough draw in the Carabao Cup 4th rnd and will face Chelsea

An awful result! We were looking down and out of it inside 8 minutes thanks to a Giroud brace but we did manage to come back into the game with the match poised at 3-2 and us looking the most likely to score but Fellaini got sent off with 20 minutes to go and that was that for our late comeback

What a Game! Shame we were on the wrong side of the result! Not a lot happened in the opening half an hour but they just went nuts and netted 3 goals in 8 minutes and we were looking down and out, i put Rashford on after the 3rd goal went in and went into overload mode and he netted twice to make the scoreline look more respectable.
Herrera then netted a wondergoal with less than 10 minutes to go and i thought we had completed the comeback and a point was ours but the FM Gods looked down on us and laughed! I went into defensive mode but it wasnt enough and they netted a late winner

UK leaving the EU could affect our foreign player limit, lucky i am looking to bring the youth through then

View attachment 70988

A lot of the second string got a game in the cup even though we were playing Chelsea with the likes of Lindelof, Smalling and Lingard starting. It was a back and forth game with Smalling putting us ahead but it was the role of super subs from either side that change the game with Morata and Dybala coming off the bench to net braces but we held on for the win and make the Quarter Finals

2nd place in the league 1 point behind surprise package Stoke! Chelsea are a further point behind whilst Man City have moved up to 8th after a poor start to the season, As you can see Martial's injury will be a big miss as he tops the Average Rating, Golden Boot and MOM charts

A very evenly matched game in where we had to come from behind again to win, its like we dont start playing until we go behind, this was a very important win with Martial back in the side after his recent injury netting the winner in added time of the first half

Premier League
Man Utd 2 - 0 Stoke

View attachment 70373

This was the key result of the season i think and the turning point in the Title race as we beat our main rivals Stoke rather easily i might add. Dybala was in fine form again but it was Herrera who opened the scoring again having a good run of form himself with Pogba on the injury list

Valencia moves to China

Jesse Lingard can never get into the first team picture but whenever he is called upon in these lower cup matches he always excells

We break our record for most wins in a row

Carabao Cup Semi Final 1st Leg
Man Utd 0 - 0 Burnley

View attachment 70368

Burnley are like our kryptonite! We just cant seem to score past them, we were all over them again but luckily for us they missed a penalty or else it could have been just like our league lost to them early on in the season where we dominate but they win.

It may not be a coincidence that i unlocked the park the bus achievement on steam meaning 5 clean sheets since Varane joined the side

We are top of the league but only by 1 point, Chelsea have played 3 games more than us though whilst Tottenham have only played the one more whilst Stoke have fallen down to 4th

Thats some turnaround from two 0-0's in a row! Martial netted a Hattrick as we were 4-0 up by half time but we nearly let all that slip with shades of our defending from a few months back conceding 3 goals in quick succession in the second half

With Varane coming into the side Tuanzebe has chosen to join Crystal Palace on loan for the rest of the season

View attachment 70357

The top three deals in the transfer window involve the big sides signing defenders, Varane coming to us for over £70Million was only the second highest deal with David Alaba joining Man City for £122Million!

Dybala is Player of the Month

View attachment 70355

Its looking tight at the top with only 1 point separating the top 3 but we have 3 games in hand on Chelsea and 2 on Tottenham with Stoke a further point behind. Man City are hoping to have shored up their defense and try to push up to that last Champions League spot after struggling all season

Hope u don't mind that I'm using your tactic on page 3 u shared. Is there any reason my 2 cb's split like the red sea and leave the striker unmarked. I'm spurs and my 2 friendlies so far have been a 2-1 loss to anderlect away and a 7-4 win away to gent. While i enjoyed the 7 goals I didn't enjoy being cut apart with every attack. Is it not fluid yet or am I missing some player/team instructions
