xonnk Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I just reached EPL with Notts Co, and after being allowed to have 20 coaches at the beginning(from the 15 in Championship), i am now half-way through August and i was just allowed to have 25. So of course, i went and hired a few more great coaches. I wonder how do you other guys do with the coaches? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinso Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I'm up to 31 atm with Liverpool, not sure if it'll go any higher! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarian Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I tend to stick to an Assistant Manager and then one guy for each training area. If there are any slots left over then I might get a youth coach. I'd rather spend my wage budget on players rather then having 20-30 coaches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhinocerous Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 lol, I got bumped to 16 I think, the moment I qualified for promotion from the liga adelente. Moved it right up immediately. 6 was way too low. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, I got a tycooon takeover, so money isn't a problem. Also, I like to have different nationalities on the staff, as many as possible so it expands my scouting knowledge...

They're normally a lot cheaper then a good coach, and I've never managed a club with a Tycoon or Sugar Daddy so money is always a problem even in the top divisions.

Well, I thought I had maxxed out my scouts but apparently not. I have 24 atm, but for some reason, the board still thinks I have 20, so I can carry on signing them if I want to! (posted in bugs forum) Have scouting knowledge up at 81% now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryds Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 apart from scouting knowledge, is there any other benefit to having more than 1 coach in each discipline? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystere1666 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Logic for having more then one coach depends on how many players you are training, if the workload is too heavy I guess you need more then one coach for a training area. I never had that problem but I like small squads. I normally use: 1 Assistant manager (not training, controls reserves and/or youth team) 6 Coaches for each outfield area (general, no youth or 1st team) 2 GK coaches (just in case 1 gets poached) 2 Fitness coaches 3 Physio's 10 scouts (3x central europe, 2x eastern europe, 1x southern europe, 1x uk&ireland, 2x south america, 1x scandinavia) Total staff count: 24 If my assistant is really good in an area I use him instead of a coach but I prefer to use him as good player ability spotter for my own team reports and simply as a tactical help. One of the scouts set near my home country also does next opposition reports on the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aadam Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 At Barrow, I have 4 coaches. However, I cannot even replace them because the board advices me to have only 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
