So yeah still in my first season with United and it's going quite well, 2nd and a point behind Arsenal in mid December. The squad is honestly pretty wank though, sold Herrera in August as he wanted to leave when Real came in for him and both Jones and Rooney kicked up a fuss so selling them both in January, Rooney to Everton and Jones to Chelsea. Fellaini is also leaving, but right now I can't even remember where to. Mata is obviously still injured, and Angel Gomes broke his leg which is unfortunate. Basti is out for a few months as well, and Shaw gets injured a lot. I've played Gribbin, Tuanzebe and TFM a lot, and especially TFM has been good as a BWM next to Pogba. In January I'm bringing in that 16 year old LB from Fulham, can't remember his name, and also Mbappe from Monaco. I bought Asensio from Real Madrid in August and he's been good but not great. Playing a 4-2-3-1 both home and away, and it's been decent. I tend not to lose games but draw quite a lot but I put that down mostly to my poor squad.
As for the rest of the league, Sunderland has been really good and are lingering around 4-6. Chelsea and Man City have been crap, together with Everton. There's almost a 'shock' result every matchday, but I'm drawing a lot of games so I can't really take advantage of it, but us and Arsenal are at least a few points above Liverpool and Spurs. I have to say that players are whining even more on this than they did on FM15 though, and even with the vast amount of games due to Europa League, they are still not happy. Carrick, Jones, Rojo, Lingard and Rooney have complained, resulting in Carrick leaving on a free at the end of the season and me selling Rooney and Jones. Lingard has been crap for me so will happily see him go, but still. Rojo is the only one that came around after a few games.
They scored about 98 goals, crazy amount for an AI team. Also knocked me out the CL semis but lost the CL final to Bayern on penalties. Why are they so good?
