I am not saying you are wrong or I totally disagree, or trying to fix what I am saying, but in general there always is an exception to the rule. To be honest, the Italian league is a league on its own. What I mean by this is that the italian leagues are WAY TOO STRONG!!! compared to the rest off the world. Maybe a few others countries are like this too, but not as extreme as the italian league.
Ok you might say what does he mean, i will try and explain. I have played a few PL's and some italian teams I played against were from the division IV and V. I am playing in division II in England and I am one off the better teams. I got absolutely hammered by these Italian IV and V teams and I did play my best players. This means that in order to be competitive in the Italian league you need to buy good players with high salaries. That is rotten for Italian players, but not a general problem for most leagues. (i might be wrong with this, I am sure you can understand I didn't check all the leagues one by one)
I might be totally wrong and will get people annoyed by saying this, but I think the new staff system was more or less implemented by the idea or something similar as I explained in the post you replied too, and it works well for 95% off the leagues. Does this mean the implementation is wrong? No I doubt it is, but it will suck for the other 5% and I think the Italian teams fall in that bracket... You aren't doing well in your league. I don't know why, didn't have a close look, but the problem you are talking about, I believe is a problem many Italian coaches will have. They will mostly have to cut their costs and in the long term the new staff system will also work for the inflated Italian leagues... (I wouldnt wonder when the USA, Spain, Germany and a few other countries have similar issues)
