This FM 2015 challenge is simply controlling a team that play in a foreign league. The goal is simple: win everything you can without restrictions. Preserving the national identity can make for a fun goal. Winning Premier League with a complete Welsh Swansea would be fun.
I have tried out both FC Vaduz from Lichtenstein and San Marino and they both gave me a fantastic experience as they have slightly different conditions than the other teams in the league system. Some teams get to enter other cups like FC Vaduz enters the Lichtenstein Cup and the Canadian teams in MLS enters the Canadian Cup.
