Re: Colemans comments?

I can't get the link to Coley's comments to work, but if it's as over the top as some say then I can only think that the boss is striking a macho pose in order to come over to the media as a perfectionist with exceptionally high standards. If that provides the motivation for the players, as it seems to have done in the past, then fair enough.Otherwise, he's just lost it and in danger of destroying the player's morale after what I thought to be a very creditable performance.
If it's a considered motivation strategy it must be almost unique among managers today. For example, I didn't hear Mark Hughes blasting his players after Bolton mugged them yesterday, after being outplayed by Rovers for most of the game.
But then overpaid so-called Premiership superstars enjoy kid glove treatment in comparison!
