Hi there
I´m a semi-new FM gamer and definitely new to this site.

Lo and behold I´ve decided to start managing a team in this terrific game and I chose the easy option of managing Man City due to two reasons.
1. I like to buy/sell and develop players in this game.
2. I like the Man City project IRL so I thought it would be fun.

My overall goal of the save is to create the ultimate team (fuck me sideways I´m unique!) but still try to keep the core of the current Man City team. Easier said then done with the massive amount of cash thrown at you!

Since I already started the save before I found this site I´m already half way gone through the second season but dont worry, I´ll drag you along all the games during the first season.

I dont have the pics available right now but tonight I´ll try to get this party started!

PS
Since I´m not a native english lad, grammar nazis and associated fellows piss off!
After getting appointed as the new manager by al Mubarak I merrily went to the vault to see what hid there. Since I set the expectations low for the first season I got £56M (I think) to play with.

I spent them wisely on the follow gang of marauders.

Thiago Silva
I felt that the defence was not up to the standards of the mid and attack. I dispise slow defenders so instead of spending £15M on Hummels I flashed the cash and got Thiago for £33.5M. EXPENSIVE but many years to come of pure world class.

Sime Vrsaljko
Zabaleta is semi-old and Richards, well I dont know what good with him honestly except hes Homegrown. I wanted Sime since he´s cheap and will probably be good for a number of years. £950K + 10% profit for him!

Mbaye Niang
Young, quick and said to become BEAST! I overspend like shit on this fella but Hey I´m rich now. £11.25M for a future star ...

Joel Valencia
I wanted another young upcoming player and Joel Valencia fit the bill perfect. £1.8M straight up and he was delighted to join a club of such great stature.

Guti, Sol Campbell and Hernan Crespo
I signed these geezers to teach my youngsters a thing or two about football. Nothing more to say ´bout that.
Staff and Pre-Season

I made some major changes in th locking room duing the pres-season which I will demonstrate in the next picture. I always let the Assistant Manager play the pre-season games to let him rotate the players.

The Pre-Season games went like following

Northampton 1 - 3 Man City
Wolfsburg 2 - 2 Man City
Genoa 1 - 3 Man City
Al-Jazira 0 - 0 Man City

On towards the real game!
Community Shield

A game versus the RIVALS!
