I dunno what kind of guys you should be looking for as to skill wise but salary wise I've found that once you start getting into the higher leagues, it's the teams that have 8-9+ 20k players (5 starters and 3 or 4 backups) who tend to do better. This is because then you can manage game shape easier because you have solid backups and you play well throughout the game instead of just when your starters are on the floor. You just have to look at it like this:
Eight 25k players (or 200k as a team) will almost always beat a team such as this:
four 50k players (or 200k as a team) because the first team has more depth and better backups.
