Arsenal was on your heels all season despite going unbeaten. Congrats on the feat.

Fernandes dominated the assist category

Thanks. It was a competitive and enjoyable season for sure.
Bruno Fernandes did well. Again. He is getting slower though, so I probably wouldn't count on him to break the assist record again next season.

we finished 10 points behind Atletico?

If you represent Real Madrid, then yes, apparently you did. Perhaps not too surprising, if you look at it.
If you look at the last three world cup finals, Atlético Madrid were the club to feature with most players in all three, when looking at the full squads of the two finalists.

2018: Lucas Hernandez, Antoine Griezmann, Sime Vrsajlko.
2022: Rodrigo De Paul, Nahuel Molina, Angel Correa, Antoine Griezmann.
2026: Alex Baena, Marcos Llorente, Marc Pubill, Julian Alvarez, Nicolas Gonzalez, Nahuel Molina, Giuliano Simeone, Thiago Almada, Juan Musso.

No clubs were represented by more players in any of the three world cup finals.

Just did a major catch-up over the last week or so. Way to bring Man U all the way to the top of the table :obama:

Thanks mate. Yeah it's been quite a ride so far. Two even title races, beating Arsenal in the end, a number of domestic cups.
Meanwhile spending hasn't been excessive with Endrick being the most expensive so far at 55 million pounds.
European glory needs to be the next target after two semi final exits in the Champions League.

Lacey and Amass both in the starting XI now is pretty damn cool.

Very interesting that you kept the 3-4-2-1 even with Carrick as manager

Yes, I'm trying to have a larger academy presence in the team now. That's also the way it should be at United.

I did start with the 4-2-3-1 in the first full season. But I didn't score enough and tested the Amorim formation last season.
Both have presented a league title, but neither have been good enough to go all the way in Europe. Perhaps another formation change is coming soon? **spoiler alert**
