Good 2nd tier clubs...Pescara in Serie B are one of my favorite teams. Insigne and Immobile are clutch. They got a big ratings boosts in the update. Juve Stabia might be another good one. They have a lot of low players right now, but a lot of the youngsters have high potential. Sampdoria have a good squad as well.
In Germany 1860 Muenchen or Bochum would be good in the 2. Bundesliga.
Villarreal B in La Segunda have a very good squad, as well as Deportivo la Coruna. Try picking up Jonathan Viera, Vitolo, and Adrian Luna as transfers.
Not too sure about France or England. I suppose Monaco and Southhampton (sp?) would be good punts.
@Che: Alizee Jacobtey and yeah, I know about the teeth thing. Growing up in a different culture I don't really apply the same level of scrutiny. Tbh, it comes across as a bit vain (maybe too strong of a word) as well.
