This is a thread where we can select Managers/Coaches for our team. Of course, you will be the Head Manager but I think it was Polish who suggested we pick real managers to be assistant managers and coaches.

If you don't really care about this, then i will just leave the team's coaching staff the same.

I will edit everything so there will be no advantages in terms of coaching levels or anything.

How many should we pick?? I suggest 3... I don't think we should do a draft or anything. so i guess it's first come, first served... but try to be fair - don't go picking Ferguson, Wenger and Eriksson or something ridiculously unfair like that http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

For example, I will pick Sir Alex Ferguson, Berti Vogts and Jerzy Engel (Polish national team coach). I think that is fair - and a good example for the rest of ya!! http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif

my picks:
Sir Alex Ferguson
Berti Vogts
Jerzy Engel

Polish,

I asked Glenn if he would like to be one of my coaches, but he refused saying I had bad Karma, and mumbled something about my past life.

I tried.

you are going to be the manager yourself.....

anyway, there's one thing that that disturbs me about this. Whenever I play CM, the stats of my players seem to allways increase and in a rapid way. I guess this process will be even "worse" when we have all these great coaches..... Maybe we should only appoint an assistant and try to keep the ratings the same? Because CM really screws up when they start improving ratings.

Kevin Keegan will be staying with Real Madrid/Metro Stars for the time being. However, if he is offered a head coach job I will not stand in the way...

My apologies.

I select Luxemburgo instead of Keegan.

Doesn't he remind you of a James Bond bad guy rather than a football manager? http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif

Luxemburgo is an awful coach! And yes, he is like a James Bond bad guy.

I only selected Maradona because of who he is as a football player not coach/manager.

Not according to CM. High stats.

shearer, you're supposed to pick using your own knowledge, not by looking at the stats in CM

I know that SnakeEyez.

And that is the sole reason why I did not pick some obscure Turkish Second Division scout with perfect stats as my coach.
