Ex.
So if manager A has beaten manager B then A shows 1 and B shows 0. If B then goes and beats A then B has one and A has 0.
However, if manager A beats manager C then A has 1 (the one between A and C) so if B beats A, B will have 1 (the one between A and B) but A will still have 1 because that one belonged to C.

In the end for a manager to have 9 he/she would have to beat all other managers and then any losses would reduce that number. But if a manager has 5 lets say, and one of the four they did not play beats them the manager would still have 5.

Does this make sense? (I hope so)
This is correct, yeah. My example only covers the head-to-head between the two managers competing for the trophy that exists between the two of them.
