Ratrug101 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 How often do you see managers that have started out as someone's assistant? Quite often is the answer. Do you think there could be a starting option to start as an assistant manager? You can recommend players, tactics, and take control of the youth and reserves to prove your worth. It could make those that do long-term saves a lot more challenging. Any thoughts? Apologies if it's been mentioned before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Noooooooooooooooooooo. Terrible idea. But you're quite right - has been mentioned lots of times before. Usually comes up every two weeks. The general consensus is that assistants do very little. Would be very boring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratrug101 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Surely it may add realism though? How many can just walk straight into even a lowest league job? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcleod_69_69_69 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 You can do it now if you want. Take control of the reserves and or youth and set your assistant to taking 1st team matches. I did something similar on FM10. I was manager of Watford with Terry Venables as my assistant and he took charge of contract talks and signings.So I was just a head coach rather than a manager. Fairly interesting though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_numbers Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I reckon it might get in there eventually. Too frustrating and flawed as an idea at the moment though. If your reserve players start doing well, how many are going to be put in the first team? There's no way to win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 set your assistant to taking 1st team matches. Does such an option exist? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcleod_69_69_69 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 You can holiday the match. Also go to team settings and get assistant to handle everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
