Bringing back the good days to Manchester United

Having taken over Manchester United at the start of the season in an online Lobbie against friends which is dominated by Chelsea and United struggling 6th, I came in with a plan to completely overhaul the backroom team and change the style of United

Hey guys. So after weeks of coming in here and reading about everyone's FM journeys I finally gave in to making an account and writing/streaming about our online Lobbie journeys. So last night was my first night going live! I decided to start streaming FM along with 4 online friends. We've picked 5 of the top 6 clubs in the Premier League and it has been a roller-coaster of emotions so far. We are currently in the 2023/24 preseason. On last nights stream we had the last few remaining games in the league but it had already been decided. My United team had struggled all season, scoring a good amount of goals but conceding too many, especially late goals. Having finished 6th and our only chance of European Football having to get past our old rival Arsenal in the Europa League Final. The fun started after the league when all of us were competing against each other for the FA Cup, Europa League and Champions League. Chelsea were going for a quintuple of trophies this season and were competing in the FA Cup and Champions League against Liverpool who were trying to make it 2 Champions Leagues in a row and then in the Europa League it was Man United vs Arsenal who had competed against each other in the Champions League Final also before. With the summer transfer window approaching it was time to bring in a few new faces, maybe I had to pay over the odds fee and wage wise to get the players I wanted to bring back the good days to United, it has been over 10 years since they had won the league and the fans and board were getting anxious. The stream is still on my channel if anyone would like to give it a watch and I'd appreciate it if you liked the content then would give us a follow! We aim to stream FM every night which is gaurenteed to bring laughter to your day. Thanks guys and hope to see you on the stream some day!

"DOWN, BUT NOT OUT"

So after our first league loss of the season, which was a hammering to our rivals City. We started to build back up our momentum after back to back 1-0 away wins against Brighton and Newcastle it was onto our first European group games of the season.

First up it was our main rivals to topping to group Borussia Mönchengladbach. As always when playing at home we went with an attacking mentality straight from kick off. Things started well,getting chance after chance but unlucky to not get a goal in the first half. The second started pretty much the same, getting late into the game I was starting to worry would it be one of those days! Luckily for us with 20mins remaining Brandon Williams played a one-two with Rashford and unleaded and unstoppable shot into the far right corner which stood to be the only goal of the game. Having dominated them but only scoring one goal wasn't pleasing but at the end of the day 3 points in 3 points. Next up we had Getafe but having to rest 7 starters after the weekends league game away to Brighton we went to Spain with a weakened squad. A boring game which saw Getafe lead for most of it until Fred pounced on a lose ball and placed the ball past the keeper. A good away point!

Back to league football and next up was Villa away. This time starting badly and conceding a penalty after just 3mins. But up stepper De Gea to deny Grealish! That proved to be the closed Villa would come in the game as United ran out convincing 4-0 winners.

This win leaves us in second in the table 2 points behind City and 3 points ahead of surprise package this season Southampton. Still a long way to go yet.

Months Review.

First thing I have noticed this month is Rashford has not hit form at all this season. Averaging a 6.6 rating overall and being an invisible man in games he has become the first man taken off lately. Maybe its time to give him a few games off and let Chong get a few games in as he has scored 3 goals by being an impact sub this season.

Also our formation 4123 isn't as effective away from home. Thinking of maybe changing to a 424 wing play system to test out for a couple of games.

With Martial now back from injury after missing the start of the season, he will have to earn he's place as Greenwood has just hit form, scoring a couple of goals lately.

The stream will be back up and running once again tonight at approx 11PM GMT along with Barsby, Rage, Stevo and Cozzy. Having the usual crack and banter like we did last night, Tune in on the link belowif you would fancy a good laugh while watching a good FM save.
