After looking at the staff list, I've decide to offer coaching role to Brian McClair (he's a youth coach before) because they were short on coaching staff.

After 1 friendly with Man Utd Reserves, I try to bid for David Villa. Valencia were asking for a bumper 104M (UK Pound Sterling). After further negotiation, they accept my 65M bid + Michael Carrick. Unfortunately, Carrick didn't accept Valencia's offer and the deal falls through. Even after transfer listed, Carrick doesn't seems to be interested in a move to valencia.

After giving so much thought on who should I sign, I've decided to sign a striker, Edin Dzeko for 19.5M. And this is my result for friendly matches, before Community Shield game against Chelsea. And Rooney were leading the scoring chart with 24 goals and 7 assists in 8 games.

There's only 1 game which gave me a thriller. A 2-2 draw against Napoli which they took full advantage of my high defensive line to score 2 goals and lead 2-1. After pulling my defensive line back to deep, then we start controlling the game and scores the equaliser. We move to the tactical settings later.
