Oztunali +2 (87)
Gacinovic +2 (86)
Mascarell +2 (87)
Sabitzer +1 (88)

Not a bad review.

Looks like France now,

Hoping for:

Balhanda +1 (50/50) to 90
Eysseric +1 to 88

Amiri got a + 1 (trolling feckers). Coulibaly my first Frenchie to get a rise +1 to 83.

Malcom, Vada, Gnagnon, Zambo, Diop, Amian and Karamoh should get rises for me.

Just realised that Hart and Fabregas are the only 2 players still in the squad from the time I took over. Quite an overhaul.

The only league of mine that will have a remotely positive review is France. Rest will be horrible.

Manchester United Bundesliga players

Prediction (and very optimistic one)
  • Jerome Boateng (28/94): -1
  • Mario Götze (24/93): -1
  • Ricardo Rodriguez (24/91): no change
  • Leon Goretzka (22/89): no change
  • Tin Jedvaj (21/86): no change
  • Mikel Merino (20/82): no change
4/6. No change to Boateng, and Goretzka had a +1.

Got him in one of my other teams, and I'd be pissed with anything less than a 4 tbh. He clearly deserves 90 at least, he's a pretty exceptional case it seems.

He was last reviewed two months ago. He wouldn't go from 78 to 90 in five months worth of reviews.

25 goals and 12 assists in 2370 minutes though... goal or assist every 64 mins, goal every 95 mins

Scored five goals in the CL in five games since his last review (3 v Dortmund, 1 v Man City, 1 v Juventus)
Scored five goals in the league in six games played since his last review (2 v Caen, 1 v Bordeaux, 1 v Lyon, 1 v Toulouse)

That's why I said he's an exceptional case though to be fair, have we ever seen this kind of rise from such a young player in a big league?

Thinking back to all the young players that have gotten big rises very quickly, the only other ones that come to mind are Pato, who was rated 90 at 18, Gotze was 89 at 19 iirc, and wasn't Bojan 88 at a similar age? Mbappe has had more of an impact than any of those I'd argue, who knows what they'll do?

Great. That is very reassuring.

Starting to get somewhere now with my squad, still need to improve my defence, a few reviews should sort that out though hopefully.

Why would you think Boateng will get a drop?
About time for Goretzka by the way. If not for injuries, he would have been 90 way before.
I tend to get screwed over. Even though Boateng's been injured this season it might not be enough to save him. Still not safe as people on SM forums saying Bayern hasn't finished being reviewed despite them moving on to France.

Nothing is so common as the wish to be remarkable.

No chance. A player at his peak in a championship winning team. No way would they penalize him for being injured.

Seriously hoping Meunier gets a deserved rise +1 to 90 but not expecting it to happen. Also hoping Diedhiou gets a rise so I can then finally sell him on, lastly I'm also seriously hoping Yousseff Ait Bennasser gets a much deserved rise too before he returns to join his Monaco teammates for next season.

They seem to be very generous lately so it should be nailed on Meunier gets to 90.

Rise for Meunier is nailed on. Relax.

Fuuuuuck. Forgot all about that Nomaan. I'm so sorry.

Only found out syrian was interested today and he was concrete. With your post yesterday it wasn't a definite yes. Accepted syrian because I thought he was only one interested, forgetting about your post.
