I started with this career mode since I got this for christmas, played it basically non-stop at the beginning, then I started to play less and less and took a couple months off due to finding out Football Manager (which is a very good game, I play '15.)
When I started with that career, there was no Donnarumma in my save, which means I can't get the best youth GK out there, another bad story about this save is that I can't play international level, although news always says I am a wanted man, I haven't got any offers and year is 2026. • I won league every season since I started (11 consecutive titles). • I won Champions League in 5 occasions, 3 times in a row. • I actually have won Euro League with this team (don't ask how, I got dropped to 3rd in my group). • I have won 2 pre-season tournaments (I don't usually play those games, because my budget is even without that very big.) • I have won FA Cup 7 years in a row, Capital One Cup 3 times (simulating with second-team).
I actually wanted to play one pre-season tournament when I played that save after a quite good break - forgot the international duty part, didn't have enough players to play and lost all my 3 games 0-3 due to forfeit, board got mad. Selling Januzaj. If someone asks why - I had him when he was young and low rated for my squad, sold him to some Bundesliga side who then sold him to FC Barcelona who then came against me in Champions League quarter-final and guess who scored 3 goals against me? - Januzaj. He is now 89 rated player but I can't find any spot for him in my squad.
I play with World Class difficulty, custom sliders and TomFIFAHeaven tactics (which works for me very good). I told myself at the start of this save to keep as many regulars as possible. - I kept hold of Rooney until he retired, Luke Shaw is still in my squad and without training he reached 90 rating. Tried to keep hold of De Gea, but he got homesick and moved to Juventus =D. I tried to get as many youths in as possible (van Gaal played with youths) - ended up with 91 rated Colclough, 89 rated Heerwagen, 87 rated Uphoff, 83 rated McDonnell and 83 rated Udumaga.
