Every player has offense/defensive attributes to be effective - on the days you want to train your offensive skills (Pass/Offense/shooting), you use a coach set with high offensive Regen/high offensive skill set. Do that 3 or 4 days in the week.

Then swap to the defensive skill set coaches and train all your players in the def skills (Goal/tech/def/aggressive).

On the days you hold training camps, switch to the player training coaches then on the days you are going to recruit from your sports academy/education centre, switch to your youth ones.

Am I out to lunch here or is this a good idea?
Hmmm, never thought about that but it would be a good idea. Apparently coaches don't make a HUGE difference until you reach level 10 on training and regen anyways, but if you have your coaches set up for then, it probably would make a huge difference. I don't ever really tinker with my coaches, maybe I should a bit now that I'm building level 10 training, might be a good thought.


As for tactics that give you penalties, you will always get penalties if your tactic is one that doesn't match up well with the other team (say you had normal, they had breaking up of play). For ones that usually give you more penalties no matter what, I've only found that active forechecking does that, for the same reason that high aggressiveness = more penalties.
