Higher League Management vs Lower League Management
so u are trying to say picking some random players in your team, can the continuous clicking OR being bankrolled by a big chairman with money coming out of his ears is hard.
I can understand taking a relatively small 'big' team such as Bolton to success as a challenge but not a Liverpool, Arsenal as a challenge.
Play blindfolded with a 'big team' and it could prove a challenge

There was a long thread about this a couple of months ago, although I can't find the link. And a very funny thread about the same subject in the GQCM3 forum, where Evo laid into a plurk in typical style. [IMG]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="big grin[/IMG]
I see what you're saying about the 'final breakthrough' though, but it's made that much easier when you've got a big support and an ambitious board.

In some points I agree but the LLM spirit has nothing to do with hard to play or not hard to play I think.It's just fun to struggle, for example if you find that youth player after a long search and you fail to sign him because another crap club(with a reputation a bit higher as your club) signs him.
By the way: This topic has already been treated.
don't know how other LLM'ers think about it, but this is my vision on it

Also it depends on the nature of the league you're playing in. It's been well stated before that Italy or Germany are hard to compete in the top division with a small club, and in Scotland especially you have the ground expansion/debt problem and the Old Firm to break. But I think in England the TV money makes it far too easy.

I'll be in the position to make a reasoned comment in a few days/weeks as I'm continuing the Roma 5 season job in an effort to disprove that point and the one that a LLaMa can equal/outperform the best players using LLM ethics.
It's easier to be sacked with a big Club who have an ambitious Board, of xure, but LLM's more difficult by far - I'll say it again - when the LLM Guidlines are stuck to.

The biggest club i ever stated with was Spurs and i actually found it quite hard. This was principally because i just couldn't get out of a LLM mindset and ended up frittering away all my money on a host of lower league 'bargains', most of whom,of course, couldn't hack it in the EPL.

No, I find the top leagues much easier than the lower leagues, with either big or small clubs. Once you get a bit of money you can outmaneuver the opposition regularly.
If I am in the top division I expect to win the title within three years. The only place I have had trouble is Brazil.
