Vertanno takes a look at the staff aspect of FM08. Basically an updated version of FM07, less verbose and generally better. Check it out if you're unsure what abilities to look for in a coach, scout, physio etc. !!!

 

FM08 Staff Guide

A lot less wordy than the 07' guide, and a lot more accurate and to the point now.

General Coaches

This applies for Coaches, 1st Team Coaches, Youth Coaches, Fitness Coaches and Goalkeeper Coaches.

Obviously, different coaches need different coaching attributes depending on what category they are coaching. Here is a great guide created for FM07 (but still relevant for FM08) on how to get the best out of your coaches

However, there is still some other mental attributes you should consider for your coaches:

Adaptability – key if the coach is coming from abroad
Motivating - the coach will motivate players better in training
Level of Discipline – making sure your players stay on task and focused during training
Working with Youngsters – a necessity for youth coaches
Man Handling – your coach will handle player’s personalities better

Scouts

In previously version of FM, Judging players ability and potential seemed to be the most important of mental attributes, in FM08, a few more have become equally important.

Adaptability – key if the scout is coming from abroad, but it will also help scouts knowledge increase quicker if he scouting in a foreign country.
Determination – scouts will be more determined to find more players
Tactical Knowledge – important if your scout is ‘scouting next opposition

Physios

Phisios are phisios and they always will be.

Physiotherapy – obviously the physio would be useless without this
Level of Discipline – making sure players do not slack off when they are injured
Motivating – he will be able to motivate players to return from injury as soon as possible
Man Handling – physios who can handle players better, will be able to help them return quicker

Assistant Managers

Seeing as Ass.mans gets paid a fairly large amount, you should do your best to use them to their full extent. Other than the attributes below, it may be important for you ass.mans to have some decent coaching attributes so he can chip in on training; especially if you are on a tight budget.

Judging Player Ability – this will ensure you get better teams reports
Tactical Knowledge – important if he is in charge of your reserve team
Working with Youngsters – important if he is in charge of your u18 team
Man Handling – he will give you better advice on decisions you have to make when handling problems with your players
Motivating + Level Discipline – he will give you better advice on team-talks
