Hello Lads! I am about to start new career in FM 2015 and now I'm choosing between two Premier League sides: West Ham ad Crystal Palace. I am not sure which one will be more enjoable, challenging and simply interesting. Please, help me choose one of these teams and give short description why. Thanks in advance. Cheers !!

Both would be interesting for different reasons and which one you pick depends on the type of player you are.

If you want success sooner then West Ham is probably the team to pick. Decent enough squad, new stadium on the way and you'd have the ability to turn them into a challenger for Europe or maybe even the title within maybe five seasons. Palace on the other hand is going to be a dogfight, with minimal resources. You might even get relegated and spend a few years in the Championship before bouncing back.

West Ham would be good, you could probably have a good first season finish in the top 10, then move into the new stadium and get more money (bigger gates) and then push for Champions league?

I recently started a save with Crystal Palace and got absolutely mauled in my first 3 BPL games.

One of the games was against West Ham and they slaughtered me 7-1. Really struggling with this new Tactic and Training layout on FM15, as my team just doesn't seem to work, no matter what I do!

I would go with West Ham simply as they have more depth and longevity.

Hmmm think West Ham would be more fun in the long run as they have a great history and great set up there but in terms of short-term Palace would be more fun as its a huge challenge and not many likeable players in that team (in my opinion anyway)
