    Built such a strong squad at Utd that I had to quit in 2020 and move on. Got a bit ridiculous when I signed Ronaldo for £15m and Messi for £100m in 2018 - shame he damaged his cruciate in pre-season after I left and retired before Pep could use him. Add to that Pogba and Lucas Romero in midfield and I was nigh on unbeatable (never managed it in a league campaign, but Pep did it in 21/22, twat)

    Ended up taking a season out, guided Forest to 8th and the FA Cup final in 21/22 (was running 5th until the cup run killed my players), not bad considering they'd finished 17th the year before. Now taken over Arsenal and hope to end Utd's 8 year title streak (won't do it this year, too far back when I took over, but next...)

    I've got Brentwood Town up to League Two. Mainly on the strength of a number of NZ internationals available on frees (Rory Fallon scored 40 goals in Conference South and 30 in the Conference).

    Tony Lochhead just retired though and Fallon's ability has fallen off a cliff. Struggling in the league thus far (no wins after 4 games, though 3 away draws is useful) but beat Bristol City in the League Cup on penalties. Interesting to see how some teams fare. Bristol Rovers have been relegated twice in a row and are now in some regional league. Eastleigh got promoted from the Conference in the season before I did, but got relegated again straight away.

    For the first time in FM 15 I signed both Ronaldo and Messi in my current Liverpool save. Was in 2018 and got them for £18m and £55m respectively. Ronaldo is enjoying his bench role.

    Its now Jan 2023 and he's still banging them in for Utd, nearing Charlton's old record (I got Rooney upto about 255), which aint bad considering he hit 250 for Madrid in between spells

    Notlob had a great nosedive in mine, went bankrupt and just avoided relegation to the Conference, have got themselves up to league 1. Blackpools nosedive has left them down the bottom of L2. Morecambe are at the bottom of Conference North, Macclesfield have fallen out of the arse of the Unibond league and into the NW Counties (I've got the full pyramid addition). Preston are in the Prem, but going down, which is great as Joey Bartons the manager. Loughborough Uni are probably getting into L2 this year.....

    3 seasons in and won the league only once, took me two 2 seasons to get the squad up to City/Chelseas standard. I used to be able win the league 1st season with United but this year i failed to do it.

    Is there really £30 worth of improvements in it? Generally, like FIFA, I'll buy every other one unless theres a massive jump

    There's currently a 24 hour charity live stream going on Twitch right now with Adam Le Fondre joining in at some point apparently for those interested.

    Game is nice TSTL. Happy with the presentation and tactics overhaul. Although it seems to lag my computer up heaps more than previous versions (I run in window mode).
