New York City Announced As MLS Expansion Team

Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan has announced his link with the New York Yankees baseball team owner to form New York City FC. The club will be strong rivals to the already present New York Red Bulls and will hope to become the greatest MLS team. However as of yet they have not shown their new kits they will be wearing for the upcoming season, they have no stadium, no staff, no team and most of all have yet to announce there new manager for the upcoming season but no doubt whoever it is they will have alot to live up to and alot to spend.

Can't wait for this, I was wondering how long it would take after the initial announcement for someone to make this.

Good luck in MLS. You'll need it. Can't wait to read this story!

This will be interesting mate good luck

Claudio Reyna as manager? :o

Interesting story, I'll be following Read about this a day or two ago, wonder how it'll pan out for Shitty City.

This story has so much potential.
I would love to see a story were more European teams joined up with new and current MLS teams.

Liverpool and New England Revolution
Man U and a new team in Tampa Bay
A German team with FC Dallas (Dirk Nowitzki connection)
Tottenham and Vancouver Whitecaps FC (Steve Nash)
PSG and Los Angeles Galaxy (Beckham connection)
Barcelona and C.D. Chivas

Sure I have missed a few more obvious connections someone who knows his way around the editor could make.

Thanks for all the comments guys and luckily I follow alot of the NBA and NFL so I understand all of the draft system and the conference and playoff system and the next update will be coming soon

Reyna Unveiled As New Manager

Former Man City Player Claudio Reyna has been unveiled as the first New York City FC Manager and is believed to be the man who can lead the club to glory. Reyna who represented the USA national team gaining 111 caps and scoring on 8 occasions. Reyna finished his playing career with the New York Red Bulls who will be New York City's greatest greatest rival in the MLS. When speaking in the media to Fox News reporter Mike Hunt Reyna stated that "This is a great opportunity for New York and for the MLS and this really gives the league a chance to gain popularity in the US with the club being so close to the New York Red Bulls there is a chance for a great rivalry and one that we will come out on top".
There is now a real feel that this club could be something special and give the MLS something it hasn't had before and soon people could be talking about the Red and the Blue side of New York. Addressing the rest of the media before he left Reyna made a simple but bold statement "We am targeting to get to the Playoffs for the second season and we are planning to win the Championship on our third season and albeit along the way we will be playing an attractive, attacking, fluid passing style of football to please our fans"
Now that has been said only Claudio Reyna has to live up to that statement.

I knew someone would turn this into a story as soon as I heard about it! The MLS is one of the hardest leagues to play in, I hope you have some FM experience! Nevertheless, good luck!

Good luck there mate! Nice update and hope Reyna can have a successful career as boss!

This is an absolutely fantastic idea and I look forward to seeing where you will go with this. Good luck Jack!
