So I thought I'd check my reputation at the manager screen, and I was quite surprised, and disappointed, with what I saw.
Is it really that easy to gain a high reputation?
I've left a club to rot in CH and transfered to a mediocre almost bankrupt club in Turkey, and I'm listed with guys like Ancelotti, Mourinho, Benitez, and Wenger, just to name a few. Seems getting better clubs to manage is pretty easymode then, or what?
Or am I just not understanding the meaning of the reputation screen right? Is there some other stat clubs (the game) check for to see if you're suitable new manager for a club?

31st of august has passed, and I've had a lot busier transfer window that I could ever had imagined.
I let some top earners, and some top performers go for practically nothing compared to what I could've got. But I was able to bring in some cheap replacements.
Tried to get rid of Rigobert Song by offering him up for free, but no one would touch him because of a long term injury, so I'm stuck with his 20k per week paycheck.
The same goes for Tjikuzu, offered for free, but no offers. Very strange, because he's actually a pretty decent DM, I just don't have room for him. (max 8 foreigners can be registered with the squad)
Some of these players I did not want to sell, like Gustavo Colman. He was my best CM, but he was too expensive to keep, and he had to go. Worth noting though, that he's on a loan to buy, so he might be back.
Tony Sylva was my goalie, but he was making too much money too, as well as occupying a very valuable foreigner spot in my starting 11.
Selcuk is a solid CM/DM type, shame I had to let him go. Good turkish players are hard to get, and you really need them because of the max 6 foreigners in the starting 11 rule.
Let a whole bunch of reserves go very cheap and for free to free up the wage budget.
After chopping large chunks of my wage budget, I could finally adjust the slider, and I spent big cash on Sergiy Kryvtsov (who got a red card in his first match), a whopping 1.9M!
Brought Papin in for his staff attributes, he didn't want a coach role, so I signed him as a player until he retires. He asked for like 425 p/w in wages, and that I can manage.
Sebastin Nayar:
This guy should be well known, he starts out as a free agent, and is a good signing for most teams. I was lucky that no one had picked him up during the season.
Sergiy Kryvtsov:
Also a well known player, a CB any team should pick up. Again, lucky that none had snatched him up before. Won't be too long until the big clubs come knocking though I guess.
Hopefully I've moved to greener pastures before that happens.
Mark Viduka:
This is a guy that everyone knows, ex Preamier League. Beast of a forward, very good, but old and slow. Good cover for me though.
David Hubert:
Don't know if you know this guy, I've never seen him before. Looks like he can be pretty decent to me. Him and Nayar competes for a CM spot.
Mike Boelee:
This guy was free and wanted 425 per week in wages, so I thought, why not. I should've offered him up for loan though, because I can't really fit him in my registration.
Will only do a quick update on league and results, as it's still early in the season in the game, and very late at night in real life.
We've had a very good opening, where the Fenerbahce victory was particularly satisfying.
They are contenders for my EURO qualification spot, and they are one of my biggest rivals.
Three wins and one draw lands us on a good second place so far.
Lets hope this is a sign of good things to come, and that we won't start to flop.
Next big update will be christmas update. Some smaller updates may occur.
Got a lot of work this week, so might be a bit slow.
