This is something I was pondering earlier.
After 10 years in my current save, my manager has developed a fairly well-defined set of attributes. Since LLM by nature involves playing the game by a set of guidelines, I wondered whether there might be among LLaMas here a trend for manager attributes.

Mine are as follows:
Club/Player Loyalty - 5
Domestic Player Bias - 1
Financial Control - 5
Hands On Approach - 20
Squad Discipline - 20
Tactical Consistency - 18
These are mostly fair, except Financial Control which is a bit harsh considering how tough Italian lower-league finances are.

Like I say, this is mainly to see whether there are any trends among LLaMas, so I'd like to take this opportunity to invite anyone who doesn't play the LLM way to not post here. Also, don't bother if your attributes haven't changed much yet (3-4 seasons, I think).

Club/Player Loyalty - 9
Domestic Player Bias - 20
Financial Control - 12
Hands On Approach - 5
Squad Discipline - 20
Tactical Consistency - 17

Similar Discipline and Tactical Consistency ratings but Domestic Player Bias and Hands on Approach are very polarised. Would be interesting to see if there is a patern, or what the average would be amongst the lot of us.

After 9 seasons:

Club/Player Loyalty - 11
Domestic Player Bias - 20
Financial Control - 17 (shot up from 11 in the last 2 seasons, as te Allsvenskan appaearance made my players more expensive/desirable)
Hands On Approach - 20
Squad Discipline - 20
Tactical Consistency - 14

I guess Domestic Player Bias must have a connection with scouting range. I was able to scout outside Sweden only in the last 2 seasons; before that, almost all my foreign players had a Swedish second nationality too.

After 8 seasons:

Club/Player Loyalty - 15
Domestic Player Bias - 20
Financial Control - 10
Hands On Approach - 20
Squad Discipline - 20
Tactical Consistency - 18

I can't scout outside of UK/Ireland, I keep breaching the salary cap for a couple of months each season before the deadwood leave at the end of the season, I let the deadwood leave rather than paying them out.

Interesting idea for a thread, turnip.

After some 15 seasons:

Club/player loyalty: 15
Domestic player bias: 16 (Totally wrong IMO)
Financial control: 20
Hands on approach: 8
Squad discipline: 20
Tactical consistency: 20

I think the only pattern so far to see is the squad discipline one.

After 13 seasons:

Club/player loyalty: 15
Domestic player bias: 20
Financial control: 15
Hands on approach: 20
Squad discipline: 20
Tactical consistency: 17

I'm still at the club I started and I make 3-5 signings per season, I can't scout outside England, so Domestic player bias is bound to be high. Haven't had too much financial troubles, but I'm not rich either. No idea how to get 20 hands on and discipline and I use 2 tactics which I tweak a little according to which club I'm playing.

eldereth, you say you are at the same club you started with and still can't scout outside of England after thirteen seasons?

KUTGUA!!

Club/player loyalty: 7
Domestic player bias: 20
Financial control: 15
Hands on approach: 4
Squad discipline: 20
Tactical consistency: 20

Starting my 9th season. Domestic player bias is due to drop as my Portugese squad is about a 1/3 full of french/african players now.

Does squad discipline mean 'not changing the team', or 'kicking their arse for getting sent off'?
