#48784 patrick1 : I didn't know you bought Lukaku lol
I haven't. He is still at Chelsea but someone wanted to see his stats.
Transfer News - Mats Møller Dæhli has moved on loan to Colchester United for the season.
Pre Season 2015/16
Good pre season with wins against Notts County (Deulofeo and Flaherty) and Leyton Orient (Welbeck with two and one by Pogba).
Then a couple of tough European friendly games against PSG (which ended 2-2 with Hazard and an OG), and good wins against Toulouse (2-0 Cleverely and Rodwell), Villarreal (4-1 Welbeck, Jones, Arthur and Vidic) and Aberdeen (4-1 Kovacic, Rooney and two by Hernández).
Then finally two friendlys against two small teams Northwich (won 5-0 with goals by Kovacic, Keane, Rooney and two by Januzaj) and the last friendly against Folkestone Invicta (won 7-0 with Rafael scoring and hat-tricks by Welbeck and Hernández). The reason for ending it with to small teams is so I can hammer them and build up confidence for the start of the season.
Then only disappointment was injuries to Götze and Bale and they might miss the Community Shield.

Community Shield – Chelsea - Wembley – 09.08.15
Götze just makes the bench but Bale misses due to injury.
4-2-3-1
David De Gea, Rafael, Phil Jones, Nemanja Vidić, Fábio, Tom Cleverley, Paul Pogba, Nani, Mateo Kovacic, Eden Hazard, Wayne Rooney
Subs Used – Jonny Evans, Jack Rodwell, Javier Hernández, Mario Götze, Carlos Fierro
A great start to the season with a 5-0 against a very poor Chelsea side. Pogba gave United the lead with a powerful drive from outside the area. Hazard then made it 2-0 just before half time. In the second half Lukaku made an error which allowed Rooney to score and then two great strikes by Hazard completed the rout. It could have been more as Fierro hit the post twice when he came on.

Rui Patricio, João Pereira, Bruno Alves, Rolando, Daniel Carriço, Miguel Veloso, Andre Santos, Nani, Josué, Fábio Coentrão, Cristiano Ronaldo

Lost the game 1-2 plus Veloso was sent off. It was a very poor performance but happy that Coentrão is back and he capped a good performance with a goal.

Have just finished reading through this story & i gotta say you have the perfect ideas of how united should be run. Im in my first season atm and only have 1 big signing and that was Marek Hamsik, i too wanna look to the academy and intakes plus youth around the world and build them into stars..i have fierro set to join and look to sign alphonse areola a GK with much potential.
Noticed you tend to get tons of injuries, im sure its not ur problem but just the way it is..i followed alot of what you have done, getting rid of Valencia was abit of a downer as i feel hes one of the best players at the club but i understand you had fierce comptition in that area so thats justible..the best bit about your story is seeing how well you have developed some of these youngsters who seem to now be playing a big part in your first team the majority of them..
Ive looked straight in my reserves & have the likes of Januzaj,W Keane,Pogba,Barmby,Daehii & a host of them out on loan..any good pointers in making them top players? i have a few being tutored right now which should give them a big boost but other than that i could do with a little advice..
As for transfers i plan to keep my spending down a wee bit however in the summer i wanna look into signing Jack Rodwell & Kyle Walker as im big admiers of them both along with continualy looking at the youth.
But yea great story mate & hope your 5th season (the final season of this Barca project you have going) goes well for ya & il be following closely, you make alot of sense..i see alot of people use United & fill them up with big name signings which isnt United atall so good job.

Thank for the message mate, glad you agree with how I am doing it.
I signed Fierro in my second season but sent him out on loan to Celtic and he is nearly their as the complete player and I am hoping for a big season from him now.
It was a tough decision to sell Velencia but I had Young and Nani doing a great job on the wings plus with the signings of Hazard and Götze it was hard for him to get a game.
To get the best out of the youngsters I have them on a tough training regime and make sure that the older player are mentoring them as it does help. The likes of Pogba, Cleverley, Jones, Smalling and Welbeck are all 1st team players now and Januzaj and W Keane are very close. Barmby and Daehii are developing but they are not developing as quickly (this is why they have been sent on loan). The one player that I was really unhappy with was Morrison as I gave him chances but he did not improve so that is why I let him go.
Other News – Chamberlain won is first England cap. Not bad as since he has joined in January he has made 10 league appearances, scored two goals and won a league winners medal and now an England Cap.
