Why do we never hear this kind of talk from TM?
His lack of enthusiasm can only filter through to players and fans alike
He is the MANAGER - that's his job
It drives me nuts!!
I get what you're saying Steve but players such as Dack are men and they can often inspire and motivate in the dressing room and on the pitch in ways that a manager can’t do.
It always brought me massive pride when one of my tutor group got the other kids going and motivated over a particular thing. I never felt threatened by it and if motivation comes from within a group then it’s usually more effective and long term.
That’s not to say Mowbray doesn’t do it. I’m sure he does it on the training pitch or in his office or wherever.
I’ve listened to nearly all of his interviews and I find him very interesting to listen to. His knowledge of football, formations, players and clubs is amazing born out of a career in football over 40 years.
The comments from ex and current players are generally of the positive kind speaking highly of his personal approach and demanding standards.
However, I do think he will be leaving us at the end of the season and I really hope he gets us at least into the playoffs as a fitting finale.
