2BitCharlie Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Season 6 review Well this was a mixed season for me. League Won they league fairly easily this time around with my only defeat to City FA & League Cup Well this was a disaster this season League cup I went out in 3rd round to Middlesbourgh (championship) with quite an experianced team out. FA cup was even worse, I went out in 4th Round to Charlton (Championship), again had a mixture of a team out but should have been more than enough to see this game off. Champions League This was more like it, had tough 1/4 final against Real Madrid but managed to scrape through after a 1st leg win and hold out in 2nd leg. Final was against Valencia (who won their league as well) and was very confortable even after being reduced to 10 men. Transfers Mostly loans out, big movers were Welbeck for £36.5m and Strotman for £14m Incoming though was Ramos for the future and Ademilson Done well for first season. Ramos maybe one for now instead of the future. Next Season I'm looking to offload Hernandez - did'nt play alot as was injured, Kagawa -again another injured and poor performaces, Llorente - as mush as i like him he's now 33 and lost alot of pace, finally Rooney - Again did'nt play alot but did do well when called upon so i've not made my mind up yet. Incoming will be another CM as i fell short end of the season covering this postion with the new formation i'm playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandycoleuk Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I have just started a new United save on FM13 and here is how the summer transfer window ended: Transfers The policy in the 1st season with United is I never buy or sell any first team players from my squad, instead buying youngsters with potential: Competition Progress Premier League The opening month saw just two games played in the league and the players won both games, comfortably defeating Stoke at Old Trafford before narrowly edging out Swansea at the Liberty. Only bitter rivals Man City have bettered our start, topping the table on goal difference. Of the newly promoted sides, only Reading find themselves in the drop zone but it is still only the early stages of the new season so there is a good chance that the following table won't look the same: Champions League The draw for the Champions League group stages sees the players drawn into a fairly progressive group with Ajax, Spartak Moscow and Nordsjaelland the opposition. Capital One Cup The draw for the Capital One Cup 3rd Round has thrown up a blockbuster tie for the players as Arsenal will come to Old Trafford in September. So that is just the start to the 1st season on my United save and I will be back with regular updates throughout my career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott MUFC Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 nice players there. oh and Neville for me now my first choice left back well other then Alaba but he plays mainly LMF and remember that Techincially gifted striker i signed? needless to say, i'm giving his full debut in the COC oh and I bashed spurs most frustrating game ever in terms of how they scored, and how many i scored. I had TWO disallowed for fouls on the keeper when my cross go almost under the bar (this happens stupidly often at IFK as well) they scored from thier only 2 crosses.

stevemc Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Right, I have a little problem. Nani's contract runs out in a year, I'm mid-way through August, we have contract discussions to which I laughed at his £120,000 per week wage demands (he's currently on £45,000 per week, and he's not a First Team starter either), and I thought I'd go as high as £70-80,000 per week. He literally wouldn't budge. So, I either try and sign him up again after the window shuts, or I go for broke and put him up for sale. I do like him, but not for £120,000 per week. His market value £21m, and there are clubs sniffing, and I think I could possibly get £25-30m for him. I have Zaha, Valencia, Neymar, Bale who can play those roles. (although Neymar is a striker for me, he could fill in) Now, Younes Belhanda is transfer listed for £12.5m, and his wage demands are £35,000 per week, he's 3 years younger, his stats are comparable to Nani's, plus Belhanda can play centrally too, allowing me to possibly sell Carrick too. So, would you try and keep Nani and give in to his demands? Or sell and replace with Younes Belhanda? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heron Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I do like him, but not for £120,000 per week. You answered your own question there: if you don't want to pay the wages and you can get a good replacement in for a little bit of money or with a little net transfer loss, you should do so. In my opinion, only the key players should be worth the large wages they demand, while you should move on the 'lesser gods' so you can bring some youngesters through. And maybe make a bit of money, given the debt our club has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heron Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 If your balance grows large enough, the chairman can decide to pay off the debt. On the other hand, if your balance goes very negative, he might have to take out another loan to help with the financing of the running costs. So, as a manager you are not in the position to decide wether to pay off the debt or not, but you can certainly help getting your club in a financial healthy position so the chairman can recude the debt. Or maybe use this money to increase stadium capacity, or anything else that will ensure larger profits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the signings have done what i wanted them to do sandro a rock at times. Baines providng competition for evra and giving us a different dimension when attacking. Yarmolenko as the season went on got better and even managed to score 3 goals in the league manchester derbys. And beckham to add more depth and just to make me happy. Next season is going to be tough but im sure we will be ready players will be leaving but i hope to bring in some top quality players to try and retain what we won this season.

scott MUFC Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 20m for Nani? got 19.5 for Young instead \o/ couldn't get Baines due to funds, dispite me trying to negotiate, he went to city before it was accepted, was frustrating on that deal, because I was left doing everything in the Window, and time ran out on negotation for Tonny Vilhena, at Feyenoord. will try again for him because he is a superb prospect. my dutch scout found him and this guy from PSV will hopefully grow into a superb winger only had to pay compensation of 600k Alaba, got him in as soon as Baines deal fell through, used him in my previous save and found him superb, and got in before Chelsea could put in thier bid final dealings, a little dissapointing, cant complain though, got 3 first team players in at the expense of 2, making a nice sum off Buttner Everton have an option to buy for £6m at the end of the season as well, so i could make a good £7-8m. total. oh and the club made £2.02m Profit (yet wouldn't give me any more funds ) massive injury crisis, not really abating, lost papadopoulos for 4-6 weeks, as well as Rooney and Rio for a month+, had to play Chelsea with only 2 fit CB..... Evans, who had just come back from injury, and Papadopoulos, had to play Carrick at CB for 45 minutes due to the latters injury, still won the game 1-0 with no RVP or Rooney. got a few players i plan to sign when more funds are available, RVP is back Vidic is back, still on the edge but improving.

vrig Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Dunno what the complaint is over "only" having £22m to spend. I've just started a game as United and managed to buy both Sandro and Alaba with no sales. Using monthly installments and adjusting the transfer/wage budget you could buy anyone you like - that's in addition to having a huge squad to start with. There's a lot of interest in Anderson, Valencia and Nani too, so if you want to restructure, there are a lot of resources. I turned down £16.5m from PSG for Anderson, which I'm guessing most people wouldn't have done. Really just want to see what he can do. I'm still in very early days. Came out of a good pre-season to beat Man City 3-0 and collect wins over Swansea and Norwich. Tbh, I'm planning on using the first season to experiment with the squad - I switch between playing 4-4-1-1, 4-2-3-1 and 4-5-1 and rotate a lot.

That you can still field Johnny Evans even after that is just further testament to the strength of the squad. If you're still convinced that 5 Premier-league-leading-star centre-halves just isn't enough cover, Jores Okore costs like £2m and seems to have improved.

vrig Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Anderson did ask to leave, so I went into the private chat thing. He wanted to know our ambitions, I told him we'd win the league within 2 seasons, he said that was unrealistic(!) and I told him he was an unprofessional git. He dropped it after that and is now happily playing. I also had Valencia asking to leave after Spurs (of all teams) came in for him. Told him we'd win the league in two seasons as well and he's got the little "manager promise" thing in his profile now. Part of me wishes I'd sold the pair of them on principle, but there you go. On my Everton save I held on to Fellaini despite him going the whole way - putting in a transfer request, saying I was forcing him to be unprofessional, being generally an irritant little !#£!$" - but I just told him to forget about it and, after a couple of months, he did. If you're willing to make compromises, it can be a lot easier to keep players. Btw, I'm really starting to hate Nani. He's ridiculously predictable and wasteful. Every time he gets the ball he dribbles a little into the middle and blasts it from 40 yards out. Ever a goal? Christ no. Him I'm very willing to sell, especially with Zaha coming in at the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
