Staff Numbers

With a board request. It usually depends on your reputation and the club balance if they agree with you or block it.

The option isn't there at all, just staff wage increases.

If the club has a low reputation (lower league) there is usually no option for that. 

I'm Hearts in the 4th season. Won the league the last 2 years and got to the CL seni's last year. Have £40m in the bank.

Really wanted to get more coaches in, I only have 2.

The Board request option isn't always there.

If your Reserves squad share training facilities with the Senior squad, any Reserves staff can also be used to coach the Senior squad - Reserves Manager, Assistant Manager and Coaches.  Might help as a stop gap until the Board request appears.

Does it do that automatically or do I have to set it up?

It will do it automatically.

Some countries / leagues have their reserves squad share facilities (and coaching staff) with the Youth squad.  In other countries / leagues the Reserves share with the senior squad. 

Go to the Reserves General Training screen and it should tell you there, or just look at your Senior Squad Coaches screen where you allocate them their area of Training - if your "Reserves" Manager (U23s? U21s? Manager) appears there then any other "Reserves" coaching staff will also be seen there.

As pointed out in other threads, this is currently a problem. Especially with asian teams or in general teams that are relatively "big" in their country but not on a world's scale.

What I mean, is that the "staff limits" are often too low. Most of the time, I found myself putting the real staff of a club with the pre-game editor, only to be met with numbers who far exceed the board's expectations (with obvious problems when their contracts have to be renewed)

Hope SI realizes and gives another check at their rep-staff relationships or makes the limit related to the starting staff numbers.

I'd consider Hearts a relatively "big" club in Scotland, and a good British club (not elite, but the level below), and judging from their website, I can see that the first team has 5 coaches (including the manager/head coach and including one who seems to be a sort of physio/doctor, so 4 coaches and 1 physio), while their youth team has 3 coaches (not sure if the U23 head coach is included there, but I suspect so), for a total of 1 manager/head coach, 1 ass.man, 2 coaches and 1 physio/doc, and 3 youth coaches.
The wikipedia page for Hearts list 1 manager/head coach, 1 ass.man, 1 gk coach, 1 "first team sports scientist" (listed as coach on the Hearts homepage), 1 coach, 2 U20 coaches, 1 U17 coach, 1 doc and 1 physio, for a total of 10 staff (including manager).

For comparison, Man Utd (according to wikipedia) has a total of 8 first team staff (including manager and tactical analyst), and 5 (relevant) youth staff (plus a staggering 13 people in the medical dept - not including the first team fitness coach), so a total of 13 for the senior and youth teams.

If anything, I sometimes find the numbers allowed in FM to be too high compared to RL.

Don't use WIkipedia as source as it will only list the most-known staff.

In regards to hearts, well then that's clearly an anomaly. I wonder if all their staff is really listed (my suspicion: no). I have no idea how it is in scotland but one physio made me laugh hard.

This is Cremonese's staff: http://www.uscremonese.it/index.php?option=com_content&id=1189&Itemid=225

3rd div in Italy. 1 asst. coach, 3 physio, one doctor, one guy dedicated to the recovery of injured players. 1 GK, 1 Athletic coach. I would suspect that those 3 physios however are also coaches, but not sure.

http://www.uscremonese.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=186&Itemid=227 -> then there's the youth staff too. Leaving out the part in the center which lists <U18 coaches, we have 1 general youth manager, 1 doctor, 2 athletic trainers, 3 GK coaches, 1 head physio, 2 physios. And that's perfecly normal as this staff has to work with several categories.

3rd division.

Asian examples:

https://www.jubilo-iwata.co.jp/tas/staff/2016/

Japanese club, 1st div, lower side of the table.  top team has: 1 asst. coach, 2 coaches, 3 athletic coach, one chief athletic coach, 1 GK coach, 1 analyst, 1 physio (and it's even a luck that here it's just 1)

https://www.jubilo-iwata.co.jp/training/u-18/staff/2016/index.php U18 has 2 coaches, one GK coach, 1 physio\athletic

http://www.sagan-tosu.net/player/clubstaff.html Sagan Tosu :  3 coaches, 1 GK, 1 athletic, 1 "technical coach", 3 "trainers" (they're physios), couple of guy for interpretation. 

Fc Tokyo: http://www.fctokyo.co.jp/topteam_coach  2 coaches, 2 GK coaches, 1 athletic coach, 1 analyst, 1 head physio and 3 "trainers" (pretty much physios)

U18: http://www.fctokyo.co.jp/player_u18  (scroll below) 3 coaches, 1 GK, 1 physio

Give these clubs a standard asian Rep. and tell me how it goes with the board expectation when you start the game.
