Hello, FM fans! I've been using my self-isolation productively and have re-created the Busby Babes. They replace 2020's Man Utd in-game and it's a fairly accurate recreation of the side at the end of 1956-57, the team's last full season before the Munich disaster. I'm really excited to share this because United's history is a big part of the myth around the club and creating this side makes me feel like I'm bringing them back to life in some small way. I've had to take some liberties along the way, but here's an idea of what I was going for... The club has a full complimen

A second game I have going is with Utd. As with my other thread I'm looking for opinions where I could upgrade on positions, who I could buy etc. 1. I have De Light coming in for next season 2. Left back as I plan to sell Rojo, Young and Darmian so would be short but I do have Grimaldo coming but could still do with another option. 3. Planning on selling Valencia so again I would be short 4. Am considering selling Matic and Mata, not sure who I can get to replace these 2. 5. Not sure about selling Sanchez, I feel he played well but he is 30 and his value isn't goi

Hi I cannot start a new game in England, that is i can only choose from teams in league two and below. It doesn't matter if I start in quick setup or advanced setup, i simply get the error "Man Utd cannot be selected. Please select another team.". I also don't have an option to apply for the Man Utd job when start unemployed. Nor can i select any Premier league team in the unemployed option when i try the add manager option. I've chosen England, Italy, Spain, German, Portugal, Argentina and Brazil as playable. I have tried to uninstall/reinstall from Steam and Control Panel -
Has anyone been able to create a tactic yet that mimics how Utd are now playing under Solskjaer, there has been a bit more of a sample size in terms of games so interested to see what wiser minds from this forum's take on it. Also would be interested if anyone has come up with what you might call a "tradition Man Utd" tactic. Solskjaer coming back into the club has led to a lot of comments about Utd being back playing in their traditional manner with Gary Neville saying "No one should ever be allowed to enter Manchester United Football Club ever again and adopt a different philosop

Welcome to the FM18 Man Utd thread! 🙏 The appointment of Jose Mourinho has brought us mixed results for the 16/17 season. Though we won the Europa League, Community Shield and the League Cup, achieving 6th in the league was poor. Our squad depth is quite good, with the likes of De Gea to Bailly to Pogba to Lukaku. However, we still have room to improve the squad and bring up talented youngsters like Gomes and Gribbin. With the financial backing of a mega-money league TV deal and the pocketbook of well-known owners, the Glazer Family, Man Utd is ready for you to take control and co

This is The One: Madchester's Back! Yes, another thread by me. This time I want to try something a bit different. I'm going to be managing Manchester United, but with a twist. I want to bring back the Manchester identity with the club and develop Manchester as a hub for footballing talent. I will be using the following rules: Every player in the squad must have been born within a 30 mile radium of Old Trafford - therefore the North-West - with the exclusion of Liverpool. Exception number 1: Northern Irish / Irish players with a long standing connection with the club from a you

Been searching through various threads looking for a midfielder than I can base my Man Utd team around, which is a modern day Roy Keane. Closest I’ve come to finding one has been - Lucas Terreria from Sampdoria. He looks the closest that I can find, has anyone got any other suggestions? Looking for someone in their early to mid twenty’s so I can build the team around them long term. Start of the first season

Having spent a long time basing my Football Manager tactics on ones created by other users on this forum (much like striker-less, possession based tactics for FM2017 which worked an absolute treat), I thought I'd share a tactic I managed to create myself. Hopefully this helps and inspires others who might be struggling to create something for themselves like I was before this. It all started with a tactic based on 4 games between March and April 2015 was then developed slightly to more suit the current squad available. After a very inconsistent start to his first year i

Now that Alexis has signed for Man Utd, what role do you think he will play? F9, IF, W, RDM or AP?

Regarded as one of the best managers of all time, Sir Alex Ferguson managed Man Utd from 1986 to 2013. Most thread try to replicate his sides from the 1999 and 2008 which were highly successful. However, I will try to replicate Man Utd 02/03 season which featured a 4-2-3-1 formation, putting stars like Scholes, Keane, and Giggs in the spotlight.

Aloysius Paulus Maria "Louis" van Gaal (born 8 August 1951) is a Dutch football manager and former player. He was formerly manager of Ajax, Barcelona, AZ, Bayern Munich, the Netherlands and Manchester United. He is one of the most decorated managers in world football, having won 20 major honours in his managerial career. Under Louis van Gaal, Manchester United were known for dominating possession but not always doing a lot with it. Often it was possession for possession's sake, with no cutting edge or chances created at the end of it. e.g. Under Van Gaal in the 15/16, United had 56 % pos

I am really struggling to get the best out of Lukaku in FM17 & the FM18 beta. Both games I played with a 4-3-3 (more like a 4-1-2-2-1) with fast wingers and inside forwards with Lukaku as a TM. However, he just in not converting. My attacking play feels stodgy and slow (like real life Man U) and when he does get a chance, he spoons it (like real life Lukaku). While this feels realistic, looking at the real world, his stats say he should be better than that. Any advice?

Hi, I've just started doing these videos as a player of FM and CM since 1992..(showing my age!)...I've got an Aberdeen FC Career mode going on currently along with an Experiments series where i'm currently Man Utd playing an old school 2-3-5 formation - Some interesting results there!! Link to latest Aberdeen Career Mode Episode - Link to latest Man Utd Experiment Episode - Appreciate any feedback or ideas for the channel. Love the game and slowly getting better at the recording and editing lark. Cheers Cautious

I'll admit, this may not be the most interesting thread, but I don't plan on doing another save this side of FM18, so I thought I'd pop it up in case anyone was indeed interested, and I definitely enjoy saves that I share more these days, than ones I don't. I don't think I need to do much describing of the club, incredible history, but currently quite the underachievers after spending lots of money on terrible signings and contracts, along with some bad and baffling managerial decisions, but we can fix that... As for the save, currently I have no hard and fast rules in place, -
I have just started a save with United, but i am trying to make it more realistic, you start off with a £75m budget and can easily be given £100m each window (including January). Rather than using this money to buy the top players from around the world each window e.g. Dybala, Verratti, Neymar etc. I am trying to make it more realistic by limiting myself to players that i think would actually be attainable. is there any kind of database/ add on that adds more realism to the game?

I have currently been playing Pogba as an advanced playmaker (attack) but i have just signed Dele Alli at the end of the first season for £70m so i am thinking of playing him in this position and moving Pogba into Mata's position of Trequartista. does anybody have any advice?

I was shocked when I saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan's profile in FM 2017 . It looks as though it hasn't been updated for about 3 years - just really really average for a player with such incredible goal & assist stats for last season. Sure, his off the ball and work rate are decent but I can't see him recreating his 20+ goals and 30+ assists in-game (in all competitions). I'm not expecting Ronaldo / Messi levels of brilliance, but you'd expect him to be at around the same level as De Bruyne or someone of that standard at the very least, right???

Hi, Long time reader first time poster. I've played football manager since 05 and always start with a Man Utd save. Usually this will result in winning the league and champions league within the first few seasons (as I'm sure it does for all of you). I've just purchased FM17 and whilst it doesn't look too different to '16, my results certainly are.. I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same challenge and if anyone has any suggestions to rectify? I have played 12 games in the league, am currently 8th having w6 d4 L2 with a GD of +6.... this is honestly the worst I hav
