 January Update

January fixtures


January was incredibly busy with 9 matches and I am very pleased to say that we won them all!

League
We started off with Cardiff at home and we weren't at our best but thankfully, we managed to grind out a 1-0 victory thanks to our Team of the Year Center-Back Chris Smalling's winner. Lewandowski grabbed a treble as we beat Stoke comfortably away next, followed by a 2-0 home victory against Sheffield Wednesday with explosive Steven Spinks grabbing a double. It wasWelbeck's turn to bag a double as we beat Derby 2-1 at their home ground before we wrapped up the month in the league with a 3-1 victory against Southampton at Old Trafford. Welbeck and Phil Jones were among the goals.

Table


We finally regain top spot after a busy January and hopefully we can stay there till the end of the season. Manchester City were back among the champions league places after a good run.

FA Cup
There were two home ties and we first beat fierce rivals Leeds United 5-2, with Danny Welbeck bringing home the match ball.Blackburn was next and it was a tough and well fought victory, with Lewandowski bagging the winner.

Capital One Cup
We face another good old rival Liverpool in the semis and managed to run out 6-2 aggregate victors, and now we await Chelsea in final in March.

Manager of the month


And finally I am back among the awards after a perfect month!

Smile November Update :D

Man United fixtures


Things have been on the up after a disappointing October. We started off with a great win at our great rivals Leeds with Danny Welbeck grabbing all five goals. Having improved his composure through training, he has grown to be very impressive in the advance forward role upfront and is very much first choice forEngland. We followed up the win with three home victories, sandwiching a 5-0 champions league win against Lyon between wins against Watford and Nottingham Forest in the league.

Next up was a tough trip to Newcastle, where Phil Jones got himself sent off after a two-footed challenge. We managed to hang on to a 1-1 draw after Chris Smalling's goal from a set-piece. We ended Novemberwith a thrilling 4-3 away victory against PSV, with Nick Powell grabbing two decent goals. Old boy Alex Buttner was unlucky as he got the ball in the wrong net.

Table

After a better month, we continue to lead the table with Norwich the surprise package of the season on second place after signing some decent players like England striker Daniel SturridgeNottingham Forestand Everton complete an unfamiliar looking top 4, with the giants all further behind.

England fixtures


We had two friendlies against decent oppositions and I was happy to see us seal two victories with two clean sheets. Danny Welbeck continued his great form in November to complete a brilliant hat-trick against Ukraine in their own backyard. Jack Wilshere and Harry Kane found the back of the net against Tunisiaat Wembley.


Are there anyone out there enjoying this thread? I am looking to switch to a different save but if there are still people out there reading this, I will continue writing :)

Unhappy October Update

United fixtures


After a perfect September, October was always going to be more disappointing. We started off with a great 6-0 victory against Molde with legend Wayne Rooney grabbing the hat-trick. Arsenal beat us at Emirates in our next game and while we were impotent upfront, the Gunners scored twice through set-pieces to do a smash and grab victory. The next two victories were satisfying due to the fact that Tom Cleverley scored in two consecutive games. He even scored the winning goal away against Lyon and I was glad to see him back to his best after his decision to stay at the club. We ended the month with another disappointing result, this time at Carrow Road when we conceded a sloppy equalizer straight from a long throw.

Table


Here's how the table looks after October. There was an unfamiliar look about the table at the top with Norwich and Nottingham Forest gatecrashing the top 4. We are still 2 points ahead after a disappointing October and that's reassuring to see.

England fixtures


It was a tough month with England having to travel for two away games and thankfully we ended the qualifying campaign with two tough wins against solid oppositions.

Nick Powell scores great goals


It was another goal of the month award for Nick Powell as he smashed one in from range against Fulham. This guy scores great goals!

Talking September Update

September games - Man United


It was a great month, with us winning all 6 games. We started off with the Super Cup against Schalke and went 1-0 down to a penalty right in the first minute.Thankfully, we grew into the game and manage to secure the win deep into extra time. Next, we beat Derby at Old Trafford and Nick Powell scored the goal of the month with a powerful run and finish. I was pleased to see him growing into the complete forward role upfront and I am backing him to eventually replace Wayne Rooney. He's developing nicely and if you guys want a screenshot, you can request it and I will put it up here! 

Danny Welbeck grabbed the superb hat-trick against PSV at home and helped us to a 3-0 win in our second champions league fixture. We followed up with an important away win in the league against Everton and that helped us leapfrog the Toffees to lead the table. Capital One Cup was next and we were handed a tough away tie against TottenhamWill Hughes volleyed in from the corner powerfully to give us a narrow 2-1 victory. We ended the month on a high with a comfortable 5-0 home win against Burnley, with Welbeck keeping up his great scoring form as he helped himself to two more goals.

England


I had two games with England in the same month and managed to secure 6 points, including a record win!

San Marino Away


I know it's only San Marino but well, it was a satisfying win!

Regens doing me proud!


It was great to see my regens getting into the TOTW!

Cleverley wants to stay!


And to end off, I was glad to see Tom Cleverley finally backing down in his transfer request! He's one of my favourite players at United and I was upset to see him wanting to pursue a challenge elsewhere. Thankfully, he decided to stay!

Smile Pre-season and August update (Season 5)

Transfers


The pair of young english central midfielders were brought in. I know James Ward-Prowse is a little expensive but I have a soft spot for him as he was tipped by the media to be the next David Beckham! Both of them will compete for the DLP-d role in the MC position.

Strongest 11


As usual, I will be rotating my team a lot this season but if I have to win the game at all costs, I will play my strongest 11 as shown above.

Second String


And here are the remaining players outside the strongest 11.

Here are a few screenshots of the regens in my first-team squad.

Henry Dykes - a left-sided Gary Neville


Very pacy and strong, brave and determined with great work rate. Reminds me of a left-sided Gary Neville.

Mark Brightwell - the next Steve Bruce


Great tackler, strong and has great concentration and work rate. Scores very regularly at set-pieces, just like Steve Bruce.

Reid - Giggsy?


Great technique, quick and lots of flair. The closest we have as a replacement for Giggsy!

Games


Pre-season was eventful with testimonials for Michael Carrick and Tim Howard. We also went on a pre-season tour to Korea. It was heart-break for us in the Community Shield as we lost on penalties for the second consecutive year. We didn't start well at all as Newcastle went 2-0 up in the first-half. After a hairdryer treatment at half-time, we went out and managed to draw level. We did not manage to find the winning goal and lost on penalties at the end.

We started the league with a comfortable 2-0 away win at Cardiff. There were mistakes galore at Sheff Wed and we went 2-0 down very quickly after Chris Smalling conceded a penalty and allowed Agbonlahorthrough easily. Like the Community Shield match against Newcastle, I gave the hairdryer and they came out playing much better and thankfully, we managed to snatch a point at the end via a Tom Ince Fergie Time goal.

We ended the month on a high with a comfortable 4-0 victory at Old Trafford against Stoke.
