I have only played one game so far and that ws a 6-1 win over my reserves.

NOW DISCUSS YOUR MAN UTD GAME

what tactics are you going using mate?

the youth are rated awful... which is unfair

Just started as United. Looking into the possibility of signing Grafite as he looks pretty good. Tactics wise I'm going for a 4-3-1-2, trying to try something new from a 4-4-2 all the time lol. I'm surprised at thier budget of £60 - £74 million to be honest lol.

The tactics stuff is a little confusing but I will get used to it. I signed this fella from Feyenoord called Luc something for £1.4m and Jovetic for £14m.

just started a Man Utd game, just beat Chelsea 3-0 !

GK: S.Frey

RB: Rafinha
CB: Vidic
CB: Ferdinand
LB: Evra

CM: Scholes
CM: Fletcher

RW: Valencia
LW: Vargas

ST: Berbatov
ST: Rooney

Bench:
O' Shea
Brown
Carrick
Nani
Anderson
Giggs
Owen

Tomasz Kuszczak went on loan to Bayern
Corry Evans went to Sunderland for $1.2 Million
Matt James went to QPR for &700K

so havent really sold anyone,
I do want to sign another Striker as I'm not sure how good Owen is going to be, but happy with my 3 signings in Vargas, Frey and Rafinha

At the end of my demo game, my top four goal scorers were:

Wayne Rooney - 24 (27 apps)
Michael Owen - 14 (6(11) apps)
Ruud van Nistelrooy - 7 (11(5) apps)
Dimitar Berbatov - 7 (18(5) apps)

How much did it cost you to bring the legend that is Ruud Van Nistelrooy back??

£1.3 million.

I'm also Man utd.

After A shaky game against my reserves, only winning 3-2 , coming back from behind twice and macheda winning the game for me on 89th min, i tweaked my team instructions and it's seemed to have worked, won my other friendlies by 3 goals or more. had all of my striker scoring. I beat Chelsea 2-1 , i had 7 players injured so i made sure in the first half i didn't concede, try to look for a weakness in the chelsea team over the first half, my plan worked ended up 0-0 half time, I put the wingers wide with the quickest wingers i had on. Quick tempo , and hammered them all half goals by Rooney and dzeko, they got a late goal.


My main big transfers have been rafinha and dzeko, both are looking good so far.

I'm also on the verge of signing 4 or 5 young players.

In the 20 games I played in the league on the demo, my team scored 47 goals and conceded 23. I think the amount of goals scored is a little too high overall.

Michael Owen - 14 (6(11) apps)

Fairly brilliant return from only 6 starts.
