Some Guy! Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I'm just curious as my captain, who has been with my club since he was 19 has basically told me that he can get started on being a staff member whenever I want. He's only 31 and he's still the best centrehalf in the world, and whilst I think it'd be a bit of fun to have my captain be my a coach, at the same time I'm vaguely worried that it might mean that he'll degrade as a player quicker. Anyone had any experience with this before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyxx20 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 it may be worth it to have him as tutor for a couple of years, a player/tutor would be more effective than a player/coach! unless ofcourse they can still tutor as a player/coach Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Furia Roja Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 its a great question. I dont think it would to be honest but i would love to know if does. I think it should. I mean if you are 'running' drills etc surely you would lose a bit of sharpness? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some Guy! Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Hmmm... I guess in the off season I'll get him started as a player-coach then and go from there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannyxx20 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 make a back-up save before you choose, then if it goes wrong or doesn't work out how you wanted, atleast you can still go back and wait a couple more seasons!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertcornell68 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I've always had the impression that player/staff are effectively two people. Perhaps someone with FMRTE would know if they have two CA values? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that they are very different with in some cases great players making rubbish coaches and rubbish players making great coaches (like in real life), I'm just wondering if the game makes them have a harder workload and as such degrade as players quicker.

I've never noticed a sudden drop but usually this would be with a player who was in decline anyway. And when I made my player/ass man a player, he still sucked on the pitch. So, in summary: I don't think so but don't know for sure. I wouldn't want to risk a world class player just to get a mediocre coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might leave him for a bit, but if he turns out to be a good coach he's certainly on a shortlist for my future number 2. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
