The Assistant Manager (AM) is continually giving bad advice in the 2nd Leg of Cup and CL/SL matches when you have won the 1st Leg. Herewith two examples from the two Cup Rounds this season (and we've only had two!)

1st Round, 1st Leg:

We're 4-0 UP, not 1-3 DOWN. Final result (for an aggregate 9-0 win):

Bet he's gone home grumbling that I ignored his advice and they've been knocked out of the Cup...
During the challenge matches, after 30 minutes or so, I had the advice "no shame losing to a stronger team" and promptly lost both of the matches. Frustrating that it appears the result was already decided.
