How about having a coaching staff of older players? It will give a face to the 'Let coach decide' option in set lineup. Make it so they don't have a salary and for all intent and purposes are just for show.

However it would be cool if they had a speciality or personality trait. Things such as ruthless (try to run up the score) or nice guy (tries to give all players game time) as long as they don't have a meaningful impact to matches. If this were the case then you can have like 3 members of a coaching team (supporters can have more) and you choose one to be head coach therefore using the head coach's speciality in the match.

For new teams, managers could assign the most senior players in the roster, who will become coach first.

As time goes on, then more old players could be eligible to become coaches.

That new managers would have to give up their best players (e.g. more senior players) in order to "gain" the minimal advantages that have been discussed. I'm also with GM-Manon. It should be a fun feature and nothing where any advantages could be gained. Something that is very important in the balancing of this game in my opinion. Supporters get a couple of fun features but no advantages. I even think that it's already a small advantage to select the amount of days that a player can be put on the transfer list. I would vote for either everyone being able to do so or none at all ... but that's another discussion.

It's 44 games - so two full seasons. That would be reasonable ...

sounds good.

hope we can have such fun feature in BB soon. coaching staff should be good for those use "let coach decide". maybe old players could be caretaker for young players, so youngsters could speed up the increase of experience. scouts could hint / suggest which draftees should have drills and interview.

it's just for fun.

Romantic the idea of being able to give a "professional" hired a retired player is a fantastic idea!
The Hall of Fame is another matter and should remain ..
Evident who would like to "save" a player who we loyal .. but a hall of fame should concern anyone who has had the sporting merits (in this fantasy game there are no others) very important .. not just one with the funny name who played two seasons for me when I was in fifth and put me the free throw to win the play-off promotion over time ..

A different aspect would make him a character tied to the club for some reason, but no advantages on the game ..
That is, we could not create a value added tax (however slight) "team harmony" and we want to give an incentive why I decided to do the announcer to a former player? I find it rather demeaning ..

Then so be it, but limiti ourselves a touch of color for those to those romance keeps us really .. (if you want even by charging a salary miserable .. in the end we would be willing to pay him full wages ..)

One last note .. someone spoke of "regaining a player" in order not to see it disappear in this fake world .. unfortunately the thing I do not quite get .. because the players become scarce as they age and the owners not even try to sell them. . or the owners retire and players disappear ..
In my opinion it would not be a bad option to retrieve them before they disappear .. after all we talk about players that the game per se do not change it for sure ..
