Arakel Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 This is something that I've yet to work out for myself. Does anyone know exactly what causes a member of your backroom staff to improve? For example: if a player on your team retires and becomes a coach, his non-playing attributes are obviously not yet fully honed. Under what circumstances do they improve? Is it merely a matter of being employed in the role, and then letting him gain experience over time? I have no idea how this part of the game works, and thus I don't know what to expect from players who transition to coaching. Can anyone shed some light for me? I tried searching, but I couldn't find anything relevant. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmeee17 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'd like to know this as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmeee17 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Do coaches improve? Yes, apparently they do since they have CA/PA as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chochip Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 usually a retired player has a very low staff PA but very well distributed CA, so they don't usually improve a lot. They do improve, but they also become worse sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Staff do have CA/PA and do improve. I did some experiment in FM08 and found that they peak at age 55, after that CA declines. What neither I nor to my knowledge anyone else knows is how it improves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arakel Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 So the general consensus is that they do improve, but no one knows how or why? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 From my few longish term games in FM09 I believe that if you put a coach in charge of atraining regime which emphasises one area over others then over a few seasons he/she will adapt to that role and improve on it (provided he/she is not already a specialist in a different area). I tended to hire Cascarino a lot as he had high determination and man management while being average in most every thing else. Over 5 seasons wit Barca he became a good attacking coach (about 4 stars IIRC) while in 2 1/2 seasons with Fiorentina he became an equally good defensive coach.

Archduke Franz Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Is it possible for staff's job abilities to improve? For example, if I hire a coach with the coaching bar 50% will that naturally increase as he does the job because of the experience of doing it?

Archduke Franz Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 That’s his job preference. Ok, I see, thanks for the fast response. Does that mean that assuming they'll accept the job a '50% preference' coach of higher ability will be better than a '100% preference' coach of lesser ability? Thanks again.

If they have 75% with Assistant Manager, and only 50% as a Coach, they’ll pretty much only sign on as an Assistant. I’m not 100% on this, but that’s the idea I’ve gotten from it. Once you have them signed in your team though, it’s easier to keep them signed on as a coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom14 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I think that is just there preference. I don't think that it affects how good they are. Determination plays a key part in how much a coach improves. Says so in the manual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, in other words their preference bar never changes? Despite the fact I've played for years I always thought it maybe improved with experience or whatever. Shows how much attention I pay to it. I think I understand what you're meaning though, I have a feeling that it depends how desperate they are for a job how willing they'll be to do a job that's low preference to them. It maybe depends on the disparity between the club rep and staff rep. Anyway, thanks for the info! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
