I'm now in my 5th season with Celtic, looking good for my 5th title, won the cups regularly too. Won the UEFA cup in the first season and the CL in the fourth. So basically I've now won all there is to win including the World Club Championship and European Supercup.
I haven't spent that much money, because one of my personal goals was to make Celtic one of the richest teams in the world, I'm currently third in that area.

My squad is pretty big, with at least 2 quality players in each position and a couple of highly rated youngsters coming through.
My current team looks like this:
Leyman
Daniel Carvalho-Rakitic
McGeady-Banega or Maduro-Le Tallec
Abarca-McManus-Breno-Wilson
Boruc

Backups: Dam, Martin, Floch (all regens), Modric, Nakamura, Kelvin Etuhu, Big Jan, Sheridan, Kennedy, Cuthbert, Jelle Vossen (was awesome in my first season, but now mostly a useful backup).

Quite a few players in my team are regens. Leyman is my top striker, got him for 300k from a Belgian team and after some time in the reserves and a year on loan at Reading he came back playing like a beast. All key striker attributes are 18+ and he's got a goal per game ratio. Another regen is my backup keeper Dam from the mighty footballing nation of Faeroe Islands. His attributes are also 18+, but Artur is Artur so Dam will still have to wait for his chance.
I think I spent bout 65m in total in my 5 season, but I earned almost as much by selling players. I signed Saunier on free transfer from Bordeaux and after he made only 15 appearances next year due to injuries I sold him to Arsenal for 10m, sold Brown to Wigan for 11.5m
I signed Le Tallec on a free transfer after my first season and he's been great on the right wing, tons of assists, top average in the league in a few season, robbed out of getting the awards, always finished second on third and his value is still only bout 3.5m and I probably wouldn't be able to sell him to save my life despite his great performances in all the seasons.
Local boys McManus, Kennedy, Wilson, McGeady really quality players, Cuthbert, Sheridan also useful, have some Scottish regens coming through as well.
Best signing has to be Daniel Carvalho, signed him before my 4th season started from a Mexican team for 1.3m. his average rating is above 8 and he scores tons of goals and set ups tons too playing behind the striker. Top class.

I also had a spin off game, when I took over at Liverpool after my 3rd season and won the league and the UEFA cup, but that game was a bit lame, so I returned to my original Celtic game.
