I hope not, because deep down the fans know that he isn't really to blame for our current problems. Sadly the fans aren't really the people he has to answer to in terms of keeping his job.

Firing him now would be a terrible mistake, make no bones about it.

Igor Akinfeev plays tonight for the forst time at Old Trafford, first of many? :) We need a serious successor for Edwin. Foster can't deal right now with the pressure and Kuczak seems to be an endless substitute, though he can be a regular player for many other great teams in Europe. It's Akinfeev or Hugo Lloris, I don't see any young goalkeepers better than those two.

Football Manager FTW :p

If Fergie's serious about a goal keeper it has to be Akinfeev/Lloris or Asenjo. Do what Chelsea done and splash out on a good goalie to last for the forseeable future.

But we also need another attacking midfielder who can score goals, current midfield struggles to score a goal a week between every single one of them.

And another striker would be good, Berba is skillful but his goal ratio is terrible. I do however think if Ronaldo was still there his goal ratio would be good, right now Nani can't put in a final ball to save himself and the others are hit or miss. Giggs can still deliver a good final ball, but he has to be used sparingly. Carricks gone down the tube a bit. Valencia will be better next season.

I agreee on everything. Berba is very talented when he gets the boal, but at the moment no one can throw him a good one, except Evra. Valencia is still adapting, like you said he will be better.

As for the attacking midfielder it is not really a problem as far as the winning goes. But in the end of the season it could be a serious asset to the team to have such a player. Anderson and Carrick can score so they need to take more responsability about it. Arsenal is the example in that domain.

Oh, and I don't play FM anymore, I'm trying to get a life... Ok fine, my pc is not up to it but you get the point. ;)

I'm glad Fergie is playing Anderson more, at one point he looked like a huge flop but he just lacks confidence. His pro is he's a very strong midfielder, but his confidence in front of goal is lacking which explains something like 30+ games till his first goal.

He's gotta step it up sooner rather than later.

We deserved the draw. CSKA stopped playing way too early and saw themselves too beautiful too soon. And against us the game is never over untill the referee says so. Valencia was superbe (and lucky, his shot wasn't on target), Rooney boosted us and even Obertan put some speed on the right side, and very well combined with Evra.

Anyway, a big GG to CSKA for coming here and playing for the win, Akinfeev is definetly one the futur best goalkeeper, and Krasic did some damage on his side, Fabio couldn't step up. Wonderful game.

Disappointed that the blue scum, and red scum didn't lose, apart from that pretty predictable round of results today.

Cocking that gun a little early, best wait till tomorrow night is over :p

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.

      Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows 11 gets big performance upgrade, shared audio support, and more in new update

      By mrp04 · Posted

      Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
