Choosing a captain | Tactics FM 2014 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

The last factor that may guarantee a series of victories and successes is choosing a right captain and his deputees. You should consider a few attributes:

1. Age - The captain shouldn't be too young. Choose an experienced player in his best age (26-32 years old).

2. Experience in the club - The player that gets the captain's armband should play in your club for at least few months.

3. Favorite teams - It's not really important but your captain's favorite teams should not be your enemies.

4. Personality - Avoid emotionally unstable players, the captain should be a professional, balanced player.

5. Mental attributes - Traits like leadership, determination, work rate and bravery should have the highest values possible.

Choose a vice-captain and 2-3 deputees using the same rules. That way, when your captain can't play in a game, you'll have properly prepared players. When you choose a captain, try to pick a player that will stay in your team in the nearest future.
