Well, what can you say about such a disgusting and humiliating defeat?

I was confident in my team but I forgot the coach we have, since the starting 11 was announced I knew nothing good was going to happen, changing the whole scheme so out of the blue and leaving crucial players for such an important game just didn't bode well , the team started with desire to go forward but only a few minutes, they were crushed by not having a leader giving instructions up front , Mustafi said it, the indications can come from behind but they take too long to arrive and that's when it all dissolves

The lineup was a nightmare, Upa just came off injury , you can't demand it like that, I also don't think the most intelligent thing was to demand Min Jae, Tuchel has a problem that already falls into the absurd with Matta, for me, the starters should have been Nous and Rapha at fullbacks, Sacha is still new to take responsibility for such an important game and the language issue and little playing time alongside the others was another obstacle

I love Pavlo but this game was definitely not for him, he is still too inexperienced for a game of this size and definitely should have started with Jo and Leon

And well Thomas was also needed up front, leading the pressure and attack but most of all giving life to the team that looked without any feeling at all

There is nothing to do, we no longer depend only on ourselves to even aspire to follow a record that took blood, sweat and tears to achieve and that a lot of bad decisions have made the dream of achieving it difficult to see again

What a disappointing first half, only the first few minutes they were trying to go forward, then they kept playing backwards, they were unfocused, with meaningless long passes, as if trying to get rid of the ball, the goal was scored because they forgot how to mark the opponent, a horror to experiment in a game like this, nobody looks comfortable and they start to get frustrated making more mistakes, I am very grateful to Manu to be able to count on him because otherwise we would be even worse

Bundesliga title still on, just

A last-gasp Harry Kane goal for defending champions Bayern Munich has helped keep the title race in the Bundesliga alive for another week at least. When Germany’s top two played each other (Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern), it was of course Alonso’s Leverkusen who prevailed on the night. Bayern’s 2024, was summed up in one night, not quite good enough.Before this three-game winless run that was of…

Fixing United: FM24 vs Real Life

Once upon a time, playing as Manchester United on Football Manager would be seen as an easy save. The same went for Real, Barca, Bayern, Chelsea... it was just a load of cash, a load of rep, and a stroll in the park with any vaguely sensible tactics.

These days though the likes of United, Chelsea, Ajax, Valencia are in disappointing form. Big name sides lower down the table than before. The upside though is that suddenly it's more of a legitimate challenge to take over one of these clubs on Football Manager and restore former glories.

Fixing United:

I'm currently in my second season at United, having won the League Cup twice and the Premier League and the FA Cup in my previous season. We also did alright in the Champions League, though lost to Barcelona and they ultimately lost to City in the final - can't stop the Blue Moon entirely eh.

The big changes to my side were RCB, RW, and RB. Todibo in from Nice replaced the outgoing Varane (Saudi league), whilst Diogo Dalot jumped before being pushed (to Arsenal) allowing me to bag United fan Jeremie Frimpong from Leverkusen - and for less money than I sold Dalot for. Bargain!

United's right side is very feeble. The game treats Antony as a good winger and supplier, but reality is yet to prove that point. I kept the Brazilian for the season, and also played Sancho (who remains) but I've brought in much more talent.

Mohamed Daramy from Reims is in - the Dane linking up nicely with Højlund. Johan Bakayoko (PSV) and Roony Bardghji (FCK) are both in but back out on loan at their former clubs for one final season of development, giving me time to sell Amad, Pellistri, and maybe Sancho - should a PSG/Barca bid materialise.

As you can see, I'm working on Højlund and Evan Ferguson (both ardent United fans) to be all-out complete forwards. Man of the Moment types. They have the skill set to be all United need, and so far so good.

Rashford plays left and only left. If he has a form drop, like real life, then Garnacho/Sancho/Daramy get his spot. Simple as that.

Bruno is currently the top scorer at the club with 28 goals and 13 assists. This is Ballon d'Or form.

Sancho quietly gets on with his football. Sports Interactive clearly don't know ball.

Mount as a roaming playmaker or a box-to-box midfielder is where I find him strongest. He did take time to establish himself though, so fans should give him this time in real life. There's a good, clever player there, and United need brains on the field.

Tchouameni was a fluke signing, having already bagged Joao Gomes from Wolves to replace the despondent Casemiro and to allow a more tekkie Kobbie Mainoo to work his way in as a Herrera type of DM/ball winner. Still, we take it, he's class, and everyone gets rotated.

The back 5 is obvious, with Frimpong in for AWB more often than not but also more prone to injuries due to his athletic approach and the skillset drawing fouls.

Beyond this the academy is doing well. Dan Gore (on loan at West Brom) has had a season like Jimmy Garner did at Forest IRL, so he's possibly ready to squeeze into the first team squad - especially if I do sell a few people. Mount can then rotate more in CAM with Bruno, and that opens my LCM creative position for someone like a Gore.

The interesting thing for me has been realising that United does have issues, for sure. RW and RCB are the crucial two spots that if you fix, the team really clicks into place, but also it's the depth of talent and the specifics of deputies. In real life we have Lindelöf and Maguire; able EPL defenders but not the same playstyle as Martinez or Varane. Ten Hag can't achieve with these deputies. Variety between a Dalot/Frimpong offense and Wan Bissaka defence... sure, that makes sense, but the footballing culture shift of high line passing defenders versus bruisers who sit deep and battle constantly... it's not it.

For United to turn a new leaf and escape the Banter Era there has to be consistency in both recruitment and development. United's squad and academy need to be working to the same hymn sheet of what Ten Hag's first XI need and how to fit it. The right wing suits me as classic winger, but ETH will be happy having a winger, an inside forward, an inverted winger ala Antony - whoever. Options are a good thing when they can still adhere to the core principles or tenets of a manager's style. For me, I like having a Rashford/Garnacho swing in off the left to double up with the CF, and the LB/RW being wide support.

Maybe Erik wants this too, maybe not, but FM24 has me as Master and Commander in the Fergie role. Ten Hag isn't about that, nor should he be. Sir Jim Ratcliffe needs to come in and establish this setup with reputable, reliable professionals who can be held accountable. With these people in place, then United can begin a 5-year project of overhauling the squad bit by bit. This is where you'll see young, suitable talent brought in at fair prices on fair wages to serve as backup to the starting 11.
