When you see certain players making the same mistakes, not just bad judgement, but sloppy passing, poor covering, not communicating effectively, then its easy to say they are being 'awfully coached' because these 'rinse and repeat' errors should be able to be removed from a players performance. However it depends on how important the player believes such shortcomings detract from his abilities overall.
Yesterday saw two good examples either way; until he scored his goal, Marcus was doing some of his own ' rinse and repeat' errors; wanting the ball to feet, taking the ball too far, running up 'blind alleys', not laying off to others, etc. Then he scores, by taking the ball to feet , moving the defender, running into more defenders, ignoring his team mates around him, then scoring at the near post from a position where he had no right to score from! So hands up in the air, he broke all the rules and scores!! Why because he knows he can, he may fail three or four times, but the fifth, sixth or seventh one he will succeed.
Later listening to Daniel James post match interview, he explained how he had brought himself back to form and it was mainly, by, "my working with the coaching staff on my weaknesses, a lot of hard work to iron out problems then taking that into games." James recognised his failings as being 'a debilitating problem' for him, so he tries to limit his errors with the help of the coaching staff, so that what he 'can do', he does do well.
Matt Busby's famous line about with players like Law, Best and Charlton, "you throw them the ball and say get on with it, with players like Nobby Stiles you tell them, 'win the ball... then give it to Bobby". Its the United way that Ole often quotes, trust your players to see for themselves, may be nowadays we just don't have those sorts of players, except for Bruno and Rashford???
