Default What do you guys think I should do?

I'm in season 2015/2016 now, and in my 3rd season with Sheff Utd.

Had them promoted to the Prem. league and then we had struggles all last year before we nose dived and relegated on the very last day.

Arsenal just offered me a job (League champions for 2 years now) and i'm conflicted.

I've always taken teams from lower leagues and i'm wondering for those that take the higher up teams. . . is there a challenge? Or Will I just get bored shortly? Going from a 500k transfer budget to a 60mil one is very interesting . . . but I dont want it to kill the excitement.

What do you guys think :P

You could very well get bored easily with Arsenal. They are very overated and can win things easily on FM.

I'd stick with Sheff Utd if you want a challenge. If you want trophies, go with Arsenal.

Well only really you can make the choice mate. In my opinion the novelty of managing an established gunners side would be less fun than say, if they were fallen giants languishing in league 1

I agree with Ru, Arsenal will give you instant gratification if you want a quick trophy fix, but there won't be as much of a challenge, nor sense of achievement as you'll get from sticking with the blunts, I mean blades

OKAY! SO I made a decision, gunna leave Sheff Utd, go to Arsenal and go for the quad :P then start a new game.

It'll be a challenge in itself I think to take a team to the quad in one season and we'll see how it goes :)

Thanks again :P

yea i would go for arsenal as well its what you work for you start small and hope to end up with a big club like in real life, if it get easy you can resign and go back to a smaller club but Arsenal board will be more demanding of results

tricky one mate, after the hard graft of Sheffield Utd it may be nice to be able to spalsh the cash but winning trophies becomes less of a thrill the more successful you get....I've always found an underachieving big club to be the best challenge and most fun
