A bulging <a href="squad_menu.htm#staff">backroom staff</a> is on hand to help you manage the <a href="club_info.htm">club</a> and to take some of the stress out of your role. This screen enables you to ask your assistant manager to take a more active role in the running of the club, so you can concentrate on other areas. <br> <br> This screen also enables you to ask other <a href="squad_menu.htm#staff">members of staff</a> to take on duties that will help you assess their worth and take the pressure off your assistant. </p> <p> <font color="heading">Friendlies and Press Conferences</font><br> During the short pre-season period you'll be charged with <a href="set_transfer_status.htm">offloading</a> and <a href="transfers.htm">recruiting</a> players, preparing your <a href="tactics.htm">tactics</a> for the season ahead and ensuring your players are <a href="training_players.htm">fit and ready</a> for the new campaign. You could do without having to arrange a <a href="fixtures_results.htm">schedule</a> of friendly matches, so check this box and let your assistant worry about it. The same applies for Press Conferences. If you don't wish to attend, allow your Assistant to. </p> <p> <font color="heading">Transfer Options</font><br> You can set default percentage values for situations when you offer a player around other clubs for sale or loan, and for loan percentage paid. Setting these allows you to have a preset value for teams to work with rather than having to negotatiate with each club individually to set your desired terms. <br> <br> You can choose a particular member of staff to track any of the players you've chosen to loan out over the course of the season, and provide reports on them. This section also contains an option to ensure that any players you offer out to clubs are automatically Transfer Listed and their squad status set to 'Not Needed'. Alternatively, leaving this un-ticked will mean this does not happen. </p> <p> <font color="heading">First Team</font><br> If you are unsure of how your <a href="tactics.htm">tactics</a> are serving you, or you simply would like a break to see how your <a href="player.htm">players</a> react to a fresh approach to each <a href="match_day.htm">game</a>, you can ask your assistant to control first team matters for friendlies. This is useful for giving you a breather while you perform intensive duties such as <a href="search_players.htm">searching for new players</a> too. </p> <p> <font color="heading">Reserve and Youth Teams</font><br> Often when left to their own devices your <a href="squad_menu.htm#staff">staff</a> will not make the best decisions when it comes to <a href="tactics.htm">selecting</a> a team for your reserve and youth squad games. If you want to see a particular <a href="player.htm">player</a> in action first hand, but you can't afford to risk him in a full match, taking temporary control of the secondary squads is an ideal way to do so. This technique is perfect if you want to eye a <a href="make_an_offer.htm">trialist</a>. <br> <br> If you are a control freak you can always take the reigns for all teams on a permanent basis. <br> <br> If you wish to train your players at all levels in the current <a href="tactics.htm">tactics</a> you're deploying at first team level, checking this box will mean your fringe players are familiar with the way you play and will more easily make the step up to first-team level. <br> <br> In the case of all squads, you can save time on <a href="offer_new_contract.htm">contract renewals</a> by asking your assistant to take care of them. This is less fraught with danger at youth and reserve level, but given the profound effect such negotiations can have on player <a href="personal.htm#happiness">happiness</a>, most Football Managers choose to take care of first team contracts themselves. <br> <br> <i>Note:</i> If you are unhappy with any of your <a href="squad_menu.htm#staff">staff members'</a> performance you can seek a replacement by placing an advert in the <a href="job_centre.htm">job centre</a>. </p> </body> </html>
