this is also the side-effect of buying players from smaller clubs, which we mostly do. they are still on learning curves and demand less from fellow squad members and the manager. clubs that buy in the big players have more freedom to control the game as they wish, push the coach to listen to their perspective in times of trouble. barca this year being a good example.
