My recommendation is to have at least 9 coaches: two fitness coaches, two goalkeeping coaches and 5 general coaches. That is because I prefer assigning a coach to a single training category, the one he is best at.
Here are the attributes that make the difference between the weak coaches and the good FM 2013 coaches:
Common attributes for all training categories
- determination
- level of discipline
- motivating
These three attributes should all be the highest possible, try setting the filters to 10 each when searching for coaches and then gradually increase if you get too many interested coaches.
Now the specific attributes for each training category:
Fitness training
Strength – fitness
Aerobic – fitness
General training
Tactics – tactical
Ball control – technical (primary attribute) + mental
Defending – defending (primary) + tactical
Attacking – attacking (primary) + tactical
Shooting – technical (primary) + attacking
Goalkeeping training
Shot stopping – goalkeepers
Handling – goalkeepers
As you can notice these have not changed from FM 2012, so if you have already learned the trade you will surely assemble a good coaching team in FM 2013. After getting all the coaches you need there still remains something to be done: assigning the coaches to the respective categories.
