Well, to me, believing in the assistant manager is not as bad as thinking that it can be a gap of weakness if you have a 4% bonus while having 10-8-10 in the other bonuses. The way you say things, it seems to be better to have 0-0-0-0 than 10-8-10-4 because no weakness bro. Those are supposed to be positive numbers. I don't know for certain what my rival bonuses are, but since he hasn't assisted to any game in the entire season, and since he can't even perform a beginner move such as buying some decent players, I doubt he can actually perform a more advanced move such as train his team to get bonuses.
If you had to bet real money, would you say he is active or inactive? C'mon.
