They have differing views on everything. Your view on whether or not Arron Lennon is the perfect winger will differ to my view.

[matthew56]

any other opinions?

Perhaps your scouts and your assistant manager have differing levels of competency?

[Altazar]

Your assistant manager is a unique position. He provides:

(a) coaching (like a standard coach)

(b) match advice (based on his Tactical Knowledge, he can recommend Opponent Instructions and players based on the team tactical set you have picked)

© player recommendation (based on Scouting Attributes: Judging Player Ability and Judging Player Potential)

(d) player development recommendation (based on Tactical Knowledge as far as I know and Judging Player Potential)

(a) is clear - in training terms, he is just a coach

(b) is less obvious - he does not scout. However, he can assess players similarly to scout, providing second opinion. To match this opinion to the original scout's report, compare the scout's and the assistant manager's Judge Player Ability (current ability) and Judge Player Potential (potenatial ability) attributes. The higher the two are, the better the person's judgement is. An assistant manager with JPA of 14 and JPP of 15 is inferior to a scout with JPA of 17 and JPP of 18, so trust the scout.

© if your assistant manager has Tactical Knowledge of 18 or better, instead of designing opposition instructions yourself, just ask him to do it and make sure you ask again for recommendations every 15 minutes of playtime or so. It really works well.

(d) unless you have in-depth development path for each player, including position, role, special moves, etc., during the backroom advice meetings, trust the training / mentoring recommendations of your assistant manager.
