Default 2 seasons at Man U and still no trophies. Where can i improve this squad?

Starting the 3rd season at Man U this is my squad, i am buggered if i know where to improve it.

GK - Akinfeev (Kusczak)

DL - Marcelo (O'Shea)
DR - Mattia Cassani (G.Neville)
DC - Pique (Ferdinand)
DC - Vidic

ML - Vicente (Giggs, Guardado)
MR - C. Ronaldo (Ribery)
MC - Lucas (Carrick)
MC - Andrea Pirlo (Gourcuff)

FC - Klose (Zigic)
FC - Rooney (Cesar Delgado, Guiseppe Rossi)

Other squad players
Eddie Johnson
Nigel De Jong
Jonothan Evans
Alan Smith


I think it is a good squad. I still have about 40m to spend. But i cant see if i need anything. Or who i might look at.

I think i am strong in all areas.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Marcelo is not the best DL, and Neville would still going strong at that time IMO.

also Akinfeev according to some people is not the best GK, with the errors and stupid mistakes.

Try and buy Lahm, he'll be great for you.

Marcelo is more of a ML than a DL as he is poor in defence.

Make sure Pirlo is taking your free kicks, and put all free kicks on Long (so he shoots for goal if he's inside 30).

Are you playing ML/MR or AML/AMR? if you're just using 2 MCs then you should play Guardado on AML and Ronaldo on AMR.

Basically, you need a DL and a new DR (Lahm is both DR/DL) as well as a few younger strikers like Pato etc.

Cheers for that Pirlo (good to hear from a guy who is actually in my team).

Yeah i already thought of Lahm, i think i can get him for 11m.

You can obviously improve on tactical approach, as you have solid squad

Agree about improving tactically (no offense intended).

I'd use Neville and Marcelo - making sure they're on forward runs (but neutral mentally) so they get involved (and get back).

I don't know how you have your midfield but I thought Pirlo and Lucas are both DMC's - they are in mine. If so, why not play Pirlo and Gourcuff?

Hope it helps. Good luck.

You have obtained a very strong squad, which should be easily capable of winning something.

As has been mentioned Marcelo is not the best defender to play at LB, especially when away try retraining him to ML/AML and he will be an extra special player.

Tactics are important in FM 07 as u well know by now, so try having a look at the tactics forum to try and pick up some tips.
