I take no notice of my ass man at all, and I take notice of my best scouts when I am unsure about a player.
Normally I go on pure gut instinct from playin the game for so many years. I am sometimes wrong and sometimes I am right.
As an example I have a left winger who came through my youth ranks. My ass man says 'offload him as soon as possible' I ignore him bacause the lad obviously has talent. He goes on to average 7.42 over 8 seasons becoming one of the clubs favoured personnel & vice-captain.

Rubbish. How are people playing LLM supposed to decide between 1,000 1 and 2 star players in that case? </BLOCKQUOTE>
We dont have to stick with 7 star system. We can easily have a system with 10 or even more levels. That should be more than enough even for those managers that cant get out of lower leagues quickly.

Once you start trying to visually distinguish between 9 and 10 stars, things get silly.
But - it would still take a lot away from people managing in the lower leagues. There's no way that out of ten levels, any more than the first three would be relevant to LLM, and it would make scouting a lot less useful for those who really need it.
