well i've seen similar tendencies... when i was managing liverpool, chelsea and arsenal almost instantley became mid-tableteams, aswell as city never became the killingmachine the i've become use to. antoher similarity in this game was that aston villa were one of my absolute topcompedetors...
in another game i managed cadiz... a long story involving a rich american, 110k capacity stadium and €150mil/year transferbudget is currentley at a stage were i'm on top of the world with 3 straight leaugetitles and a couple of CL's I've seen the same thing... barcelona came in at 8th or so last season... madrid is the only consictent top team as runner up year after year. another strange thing is that i've been the only spanish team in the CL-semifinals... i also miss the english teams... in the last 2 years 5 out of 8 teams has been italian, Udinese (!?) won in the end... might also add that i've filled 2 of those spots... the only non-italian team except for me was AZ if i remeber it right...
anyway the world is kind of twisted atm... so i feel what you guys are saying !
