Are you players agent? You are just about give them free pass.
Being mid 20 is being grown man. You are not child to be held by hand. You should not need someone to tell you about pride, desire, passion when you do your job.
Why didn’t We do that this year with Solskjaer? Because of players. What history does Rangnick have of talking bs? And yes, while I usually think things should be done behind doors I wouldn’t mind Rangnick calling them out by names. Players need to understand they are only players and nothing else. If they aren’t happy leave or just stop playing at all.
Where am i giving them a free pass?
Why don’t Klopp just feck off on vacation for the rest of the season, next season as well, Liverpool will run themselves, no need for a manager. Guardiola as well, for that matter. There’s a reason the vast majority of managers aren’t even close, it’s not because it’s an easy job.
Solskjærs limitations became his undoing, the drop in performances was just larger than expected, pride, desire and passion sadly isn’t enough when you don’t have much of a clue in terms of tactics. Ralf is the opposite, all tactics but little or no understanding on how to actually deal with players and implement it on the pitch.
Ralf likes to talk about his importance in football, the effect he’s had in terms of gegenpress, he simply has a big ego and likes promoting himself, which is why he’s landed a shitload of interviews but few jobs as a manager. Look up his AC Milan stunt. There’s a reason he’s not a successfull manager, and it’s not because of players. His take on physios and injured players is bad enough.
Fact is that Ralf has completely failed and he’s blaming it all on the players rather than himself. No idea why people are falling for it. I’m not a big fan of Conte, he’s a massive knobhead, but he would’ve easily outperformed Ralfs results on pretty much every level there is.
