Latest WLS podcast on 17:26 - Mar 13 by mart_Goblin
I think all the pods have been really interesting this week . Perhaps because fans are frustrated and angry . But I thought WLS, W12, Hoops & Dreams, Open all R’s and Hoopsa (yep, I spend hours commuting everyday ) all actually gave the club, the manager and the players both barrels this week (as much is acceptable of course) and rightly so .
The team turns out guff like that , then we all have every right to do so . Interesting from Kev on training etc. In my opinion there is often small percentages between success and failure and teams might, for the most part do a lot of similar training drills , but it’s the slight tweaks to some of those formulas that can make the difference . A slight change or a different face once in a while just so things don’t get stale (Francis used to get Dave Sexton in occasionally to take a mornings session for example ).
I’ve been banging on about the pre match warm up a lot so apologies, but why don’t they tweak this so it’s slightly different once in a while ?
I do think something bigger has happened behind the scenes,in recent weeks . The club leaks like a sieve so I’m surprised rumours aren’t a wash. So maybe I’m wrong , but the eye test tells you all is not well and I think Dave Mc rightly called out JS on WLS.
He looks, sounds and performs in recent weeks like he’d jacked it in.
It’s no wonder that’s how the players are performing.
Stephan has looked and sounded like a doomed man with no clue. Rather like Ainsworth was for several months.
Its more difficult to get the right balance in a manager, as compared to thirty years ago, where managers had a predominantly British squad of players, so the style of motivation was a usual rocket up the backside in those days, fifteen years ago, some players would react better to the father figure and arm around the shoulder.
But today, with players from different backgrounds and cultures and from various areas around the globe, its very varied whats the best way to motivate individual players.
