I don't know what is more shocking, Pulis leaving or Pep Guardiola or Jurgen Klopp being in the running for the job.
 
I have decided that this will be my last year in charge of Man Utd as i feel i cant possible take them any further, after the 2022 World Cup i went for the Spain and England managers jobs if i get either of these i will carry on as just them up until the Euro's in 2024.

Spain offer me a job but England end up going for Eddie Howe!

Transfers
If this was to be my last season in charge i thought i would go all out and blew a fortune on 3 quality players that have all gone straight into my first team.

There were no transfers out as i already have a fairly small squad the only player im looking to offload is Lionel Messi, he is now 35 years old and dropped to only a 2 star player yet wants his contract renewed at £275,000 a week

An indfferent start to the league but glad to get my first silverware, Abalos got injured after the second game and it showed we missed him in the other 2 games.

We should have done better in the Arsenal game both times we scored they replied instantly but the Chelsea game was over in a flash with no key highlights at all!

Had to be Abalos 4 goals in 2 games shame he got injured at the beginning of the 3rd should be back in the side after the international break.

It was actually ownly after these two results that i realized i had no qualifiers to play had a look and i am the hosts for the Euro's in 2024 so will only be playing pointless friendlies for the next 2 years.


1 - 1 Wolves A

2 - 3 Liverpool A

4 - 0 Dinamo H
Abalos 32, 45, 85 Vollman 71

I thought my reserve team would be able to dispose of Colchester but they struggled until i brought Potes and Vila on and the Liverpool result was another poor result to add to a bad start in the league, only shining light is the two dominant performances in the Champions league.

Has to be Abalos so glad i decided to splash the cash on him in the end and hes paid some of that money back with another 5 goals this month.
 
October 2022

A much better month in the league with 6 wins out of 7 in all competitions but more importantly 4 wins out of 4 in the league pushing us to just a point behind Man City

1 - 0 Sunderland A
Kennedy o.g 81

International Friendly
1 - 0 Peru A

4 - 0 Burnley H
Abalos 7, 28,59 Renato 82

3 - 0 Swansea H

Capital One Cup 4th Round
4 - 3 Arsenal A
Vila 37, 62 Renato 74 Thiago 91

2 - 0 Millwall A
Vila 22 Abalos 49

The Arsenal game was very lucky they were up 3 - 1 at half time but we managed to do all our work in the second half and win the game in the last minute, Thiago has recently requested to leave saying he has achieved all he can at the club, which i accept he never quite made it as a superstar always behind Wilshere and Crisetig in the middle.

3 months in a row for Abalos he has been amazing since joining the club with an outstanding goal return of 15 goals in 12 starts.
 
November 2022

A perfect month with 8 wins out of 8 over 4 different competitions. The league matches were the most impressive with us going back to were we belong on top of the pile above Man City after beating them at home.

4 - 1 Sporting H
Vieria o.g 15 Crisetig 21 Potes 60 Bale 82

3 - 0 Everton A
Vila 11 Potes 70, 87

Capital One Cup Quarter Final
3 - 1 West Brom
Borancha 14 Abalos 20 Bale 81

As you can see the highlight of the month is the decimation of Zenit which helped us qualify from the group with ease. Potes, Vila and Abalos have all played well when called upon this week.

Gareth Bale is still doing the buisness over 10 years after i signed him grabbing a goal whenever he can.

And after Guardiola becoming boss of Stoke in the summer this happens already!

Could I see a screenshot of Wilfried Zaha? Im intrigued as to how good he becomes? :) Thanks
 
December 2022

A poor month in the league but Man City were yet again not able to make up much ground after losing to Burnley straight after my draw with Derby! Before the Newcastle game i had won 10 premier league games in a row conceding only 3 goals and scoring 26 yet their captain a young regen called Paul Curtis scored 5 goals for them all in the first half!

A good month in the Champions league as we finish top of the group by 5 points and in the league we were lucky that Man City always fail to capitilaze on any slip ups we have, they are made favourites for the league every year even though i have won it 10 years in a row.
Strangest of all is that despite not winning the league for so long Roberto Mancini is still manager 13 years after he took over!

Zouma has played amazingly this month and even grabbed a goal, he is a personal favourite of mine from FM 2012 where i literally signed him for pretty much every club i played as.
Whats interesting is in the newspapers in real life yesterday was transfer gossip that he is actually heading to Man Utd!
 
January 2023

7 wins out of 8 this month and the draw against Man City in the cup feels like a win as we went through to the final. I still have high hopes for the perfect season with the Community Shield already in the bag, top of the league, knockout stages of the Champs League, Capital One Cup Finalists and into the FA Cup 5th round.
But as i have seen before one bad Febuary can knock you out of 3 cups and leave you down and out.

As you can see through the goalscorers i mixed my teams up quite a bit this month and now that i have more strength in depth i feel as if the Quintuplet is not out of reach.

Marc Vila has been overshadowed this season by Abalos after his exploits last season but he did well this month in the squad rotation and managed 8 goals in the 6 games he started in.
 
Febuary 2023

My second piece of silverware of the season after comfortably winning the Capital One Cup my reserve team played in most of the matches and one of the stats i picked up on afterwards was that we scored 15 goals in the cup this season but conceded 10!

Im just glad that one competition is over now so i might not have such busy schedules Man City can still not capitlize on the fact ive played 2 games less than them and im still top by quite a way.

Vollmann has settled in well to the squad and has been getting some good game time with Messi now past it and Thiago and Wilshere both saying they intend to leave at the end of the season.
 
March 2023

A poor loss at the end of the month to Southampton, in the Spain game we were down 2-0 after only 6 minutes. Fierro scored twice for them who is on fire for his club PSG too.

3 - 1 Chelsea A

Vila 13, 60

0 - 1 Southampton A

Again we slip up in the league but Man City cannot gain anything from it, once this season is over i am going to overhaul the Spain squad completely for these friendlies i havent changed many players around but next season i will look to the future and get rid of many players over 30.

He did well for club and country this month helping us draw against Mexico all on his own after a poor start.
