Recommended Posts

This is the thread for all of your recommendations for the Best Staff in Football Manager 2013. I thought it would be useful especially for those who are getting used to the new Director of Football feature.

Please use the following format when recommending staff. It makes it a lot easier for people to see where there is a recommendation, and where is discussion.

Anything from the best staff at the Major Clubs to the best staff that can be hired at Lower League Clubs.

Also, please try and fill in as much as you can. This will help people even more.

All the staff members mentioned in the 2012 thread (sticky and posts in thread) are all still brilliant so you should just add them. Although Tosh Farrel is now a scout, however Bernhard Peters is now Head of Youth development so his excellent stats are used better.

He's a great addition to the backroom staff stat-wise, but on a moral level there's no way I could hire him. Bribing referees, against homosexual footballers; no thank you Mr. Moggi.

Found a guy called Pantaleo Corvino who seems to have cracking stats

What sort of club is he willing to discuss terms with? I'm considering starting a new save with Newcastle now the full game is out and I found a lot of staff in the first season weren't willing to discuss a contract with me.

I've signed him twice, was Man Utd and Bayern, so I presume only top teams unfortunately, I did try to sign him with Wolves, I was in the Premiership and he didn't wanna know.

He was sort of half willing to discuss terms with Newcastle, but was looking for about double what I could offer in wages for a scout. Someone on the Newcastle thread has managed to sign him as a DoF but I already had someone in that role.

Ahh, I found that, he wanted nearly £20k in wages to sign, he was useless as my DoF anyway, told him to sign Ademilson (I knew about his minimum release clause), yet every time I told him to go after him, he'd say he couldn't sign him because their valuation of him was too high!

What do you guys do for scouts? Do you go for the higher rated ones, or the ones with more set knowledge of a particular region?

I tend to try and build up a network of scouts from different nations; trying to get scouts for each nation/continent with a minimum of 15 in judging ca/pa is pretty difficult mind you!
