I don't think you understand how the massage specialty works. Here's a section about it from the manual:
"Massage: Players who play too many minutes in a given week will not experience as severe a drop in game shape."

You were probably talking about the Fitness specialist ("Fitness: The magnitude of the Stamina drops experienced by your players is decreased."), who can be combined with a nutritionist. The combined effect is not exactly simply added together, rather their combined effect is less than that. How much? You need to figure that out for yourself.

It all looks very interesting and adding options and new factors to the game is always a good thing. I am looking foward to using them, especially the Youth Trainer since I do extensive scouting and my first draft pick is usually suitable for either the srating 5 or the regular substitutes from the start of the season but I have to ignore the team's needs in order to train him to youth NT level or for a high value sale.

One improvement I can see neccessary from even now is the option to "Hire Internaly" just like the main staff.

Waste of time. I have enough trouble getting the money to hire good players to move up a division. I've put a lot of players on U21 and several on NT. By the time they get that good, I have to sell them because you can't move up divisions with just 1 or 2 good players. I have a 20,000 seat stadium that sells 97% and that still barely covers the costs of a team that will just be DIII next season.

@Huskies: Well, the new staff members affect the same things and can be combined with the specialties of the old staff. So, I wouldn't call them obsolete but complementary. And yeah about the nutritionists.

@aber: all of them.

Is the Sports Psychologist at superior rating, along with a trainer with an advanced rating, going to be good enough that I could reduce my roster down to, say, 8 players? That would give me the money to pay the salary without increasing my expenses. If the SP is that good, then this is a pretty good concept.

Got an idea while drinking beer:

How about adding a fourth type of secondary staff:

Athletic Specialist: Reduces the effect of skilldowns of old players (age 33+).

IMHO this would be a perfect addition to the existing three types of secondary staff and give managers an additional option for team building. For example, we all know how long it takes to train players beyond 130 TSP - just to see them having their first skilldowns a couple of seasons later. An Athletic Specialist could help to preserve their elite state for a longer time frame (at a cost, of course).

Opinions?
