Finally it's in the bag!
I didn't know this was possible without cheating.
I have completed a clean sweep of all the competitions we entered! And what's most pleasing is that we have finally captured the Champions League title!! Having lost it in the finals for the past two seasons, I wasn't too optimistic going into the finals against our noisy neighbours Man City. And this happened!
Champions League Final
I have always been worried about facing our city rivals as they never fail to spot gaps in our defence.Jovetic and Aguero were constant threats as usual and it was no surprise to see them on the scoresheet. Thankfully, they couldn't cope with our aerial prowess and we scored two from set-pieces. Lewandowskiscored in injury time as well and it was a sweet sweet victory!!!
EPL
This is our best performance yet in the league with the most points and best goal difference. We were always comfortable and kept our nearest rivals out of reach, winning the league eventually by 13 points. There was a familiar look about the table at the end with all the big clubs finishing in the top 6.
Some proud moments
A surprise winner for the player of the year! What I am most happy about is the fact that he's English! I am really proud!
Three players named in the team of the year!
We score great goals
League Cup
It was our second consecutive League Cup victory with us narrowly beating West Brom in the finals after overcoming Arsenal over two legs. Antonio Valencia grabbed the all important goal.
FA Cup
We came from behind and beat Everton 3-1 in the FA Cup final to complete the fantastic clean sweep!
Clean sweep!
After a great season, lets now look back on the players' performances and I will pick out the star players of their positions.
Players' Analysis
Goalkeeper
There is no doubt who's the star performer in this position with him winning the golden glove yet again. Made some brilliant and crucial saves throughout the course of the season. How I wish he's English!
Defenders
I would like to mention both Shawcross and Smalling , who have both gone on to form a formidable partnership in the central defence. On top of their defensive solidity, they contributed ten goals in total and it's a great bonus to have! What's more, they are both English and Shawcross graduated from the United Academy! Great stuff!
Midfielders
Clearly, Tom Ince is the star man, having won EPL's player of the year. Like Ince, Zaha won 5 player of the match awards and deserved the honorable mention.
Strikers
Welbeck is the club's top scorer with 31 goals in all competitions. However, Rooney is the more all-rounded striker this season with 23 goals and 20 assists in a productive season. They would certainly form a deadly partnership should Roy Hodgson decide to pair them up for England.
Summary
All in all, what a great season! Having won everything, I am really looking forward to the Club World Championship and the European Super Cup as I have not won these competitions. It's really pleasing to see all the English players doing well and I will finally be bringing a couple of regens through to the first-team next season as they are developing well. There's a really talented central defender and an explosive left winger lurking in the reserves. I will post up screenshots of them in the next update!
Rolling on to the 4th season!
With lots of love,
Beckham Plays FM
