MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Great to see FM26 still working really well. Also asked why I'd picked Ivan Toney. When I hadn't. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 23/12/2025Absolutely no evidence or indication he will be replacing Sam Wilson in any capacity. It's already confirmed Sam has formed a new Avengers team in the Thunderbolts post credit scene. I fully expect something like this. 040 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 01/06/2025Not pretty, but the trophy is. I have just edged past 6000 points. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 31/05/2025A very dominant domestic campaign, but a big overhaul needed with an aging squad and a very low transfer budget. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Probably a good thing I've left Spain this summer. One of my favourite achievements of the save this. A decidedly average England team and we lead them to World Cup glory. We've overtaken Ferguson and we're into 3rd. The end is actually in sight. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 27/02/2025"Stepped up from his previous standings". What? Real Madrid were literally the highest ranked club in the world. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 27/02/2025And there we go. I have also been offered the Marseille, but it's going to be third times the charm for PSG. They finished 4th last season and the Qataris have long gone so, it's not going to be easy. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 27/02/2025Ah we do actually get a news article for the unbeaten season. I do think I'll go for a job in France or Germany if there's a suitable one this summer though. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 26/02/2025But the biggest thing is that, finally, after several incredibly near misses, we've managed an invincible league season! Although actually 3 points fewer than last year. But which of course means another Manager of the Year. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 26/02/2025And yes that also means no 9th Champions League. And in fact means it was the single worst Champions League campaign of the save, as a wretched group phase sees us in the play offs, where we lost to Man City on penalties. A disgrace really. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 26/02/2025Been a very long slog through this season as lost a bit of interest having won everything here, but we've made it to the end and picked up another La Liga. Only trophy we'll be getting though as we lost the Super Cup final to Barca and got dumped out of the Copa Del Rey by them. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 24/01/2025If you're forced to be in the Club World Cup, you might as well win it. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 21/01/2025Got to the Nations League final. Lost the Nations League final. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Into 4th in the Worldwide Hall of Fame now. Still miles from Pep but Sir Alex Ferguson is now within reach. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 20/01/2025We end with 101 points and just one defeat (again!). Another amazing season. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 19/01/2025And we make it a domestic treble as we claim La Liga as well, with four games spare as we beat and draw with Barca meaning they can't overhaul given the head to head. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 19/01/2025And another, as we win the Copa Del Rey. Trophy number 25 I think? 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 18/01/2025We have managed to win a domestic trophy. We claim the Spanish Super Cup having beaten Barca in the semis. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 18/01/2025Make that £500m as our goalkeeper got a lengthy injury and I figured, 'why not spend £144m on, in terms of Current Ability, the best goalkeeper in the world?' Not that you'd have thought from his prior record. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 12/01/2025We've spent £350m this summer. And we've begun by losing the Super Cup to Crystal Palace. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 12/01/2025France are the only team on my CV I didn't win anything with, so let's add another one. I applied this time as I figured the FA weren't ever going to bother. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 12/01/2025So obviously a good season but yeah Barcelona are really good. We have a mere £415m to try and improve our fortunes domestically... 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 12/01/2025But as much as I'd love to see them win, I'm managing the other team so... 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 12/01/2025We did manage to make the Champions League final again though. And we faced our old team. Not that one. Or that one. Yep, that one. You love to see it, despite the fact they finished 11th in the league, an insane achievement we helped build. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 12/01/2025We finish second in the league, 6 points behind Barca in the end. The stupid away draws against much weaker sides, the main issue. Plus they're just really good. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 11/01/2025In other news, we have maintained our record of reaching the Champions League semi-finals every season we've been in it. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 11/01/2025So for some reason La Liga allow utterly moronic square pitches which several lower half sides have. And we are awful on them, so the league has basically gone. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 11/01/2025We won our first El Clasico in the home league game. We have lost the three subsequent ones. Our, at one stage, 7 point lead, is gone. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 11/01/2025And there's no better way to mark it than by throwing away the prospect of an unbeaten league season (again!). 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 11/01/2025But we finally reach the big milestone. The second former Leyton Orient manager to do so after Alec Stock. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 11/01/2025And I'm sure this will go down well. We're still unbeaten in La Liga. Although Barca are only 3 points behind. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 10/01/2025Slow progress through this season but we've been doing pretty well. So naturally we lose the first possible trophy we come across, in the Super Cup. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025Good job we have so much money because this squad is good but aging and threadbare. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025And when Real Madrid offer you over £300m to replace a retiring Ange. I mean it's a difficult choice. Oh wait, no it's not. Top of the Hall of Fame is the aim, and all I really want is the league titles of the top 5/6, and if that means no Coppa Italia or other domestic cups, I can deal with that. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025So it's been a great season, but, we have no money. Literally a £0 transfers budget. Which isn't ideal. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025Which is annoying really, but good to see my domestic cup final record extends beyond England. We end with a ludicrous 98 points. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025No Coppa Italia though. An utterly insipid display sees us lose to Inter here. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025But never mind as we have won the main thing we came here for. We take the Serie A with two games to spare. Inter are really good and it was looking dicey (with the second match against them still to play) but they dropped points so we get it done. Just Milan's 3rd title of the save. 100 0
MrGran2 @gran2.bsky.social · 05/01/2025Well we stopped Chelsea from winning seven in a row, but also won't be doing that ourselves. 3-0 first leg semi-final win, 6-0 second leg defeat... 100 0
