I'm looking to start a new career in football manager but I have a problem, I don't have any idea who to be. Any help would be welcome

well, gives us some kind of idea, do you want immediate success, a hell of a challenge, a world-class team, a not so popular league..what?..

Deportivo La Coruna and Parma offers a great challenge. since they have a tradition of success, it's more easy settling them as a big club.

Help me out here.

Team with a hefty transfer budget, weak European league, not Shakhtar.

If you consider the Turkish league weak: Fenerbahçe, Besiktas, or Trabzonspor.
Serie B: Juventus.
Austria: Salzburg.
In the Ukraine, but not Shakhtar: Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk or Dinamo Kiev.

The fees get less hefty from top to bottom.

Rosenborg, Brondby or Kobenhavn

They all have balances of 20m-30m €, if you request a bigger transferbudget, they'll give you something like 10-20m to spend.

FCK can't sign big players though, I ended up settling for the likes of Dave Nugent.

I signed Kristen Nemeth with them though, which I've been gloating about since Liverpool really signed him.

3 non-EU (or swiss) limit in the match day squad too.

Well, he did want a team in a weak european league, so in the end, you'll have this problem with every team in a weak league

I'll look into Fener. That sounds exactly what I was looking for. I just want to have a team like Dynamo Kiev with Sheva, or Galatasaray 6 years ago. Dominant in the league, non-traditional power in Europe.

Does anyone know what the prize money or TV money is like in some of the smaller leagues? Ukraine gives you nothing I know.

I would think VERY low Dan, hence why in real life, there's such a massive gulf between the teams that get to Europe, and the ones that don't.

Nimreitz

Yeah. Turns out Turkey is even less desirable than Ukraine. I'll have to look around a bit, or just keep going with my Shakhtar game.

I believe Lyon has lots of money too. Although the French league is not really a weak league, they do dominate that league.

Fener is fine, owners have money and as long as you get into CL you'll have more than enough money

You should be able to attract big players to the Turkish leagues, think of Appiah or Roberto Carlos.

Man City are poor, Im managing them now. Although if you can do alright in the first season you can normally get some pretty good free transfers and loans.
