Nonsense, he's never done anything major in his career to prove if he could or couldn't. The bright spot in his career is qualifying for the Champions League with Bologna. So he is not even half of Messi. Thanks for clarifying because I didn't know before.

We know he got canned and none of the players across different nationalities, personalities, and age groups cared or showed any grace to that bum.
I don't like Motta so don't want to defend him but I just don't think what he said is a big deal. If it's even true at all.

If anyone has played sports in their lives before they will know players and coaches say / do much worse to each other on a daily basis. Its nothing to cry about.

I personally don't think this is even the slightest bit harsh.

Professional players shouldn't have their egos wrapped in cotton wool. They aren't babys.

Our players like most modern players these days are pussys.

If a manager cant use constructive criticism without worrying about hurting his players feels then football is really dead.
It’s also very contextual. If he’s dribbling way to much than honestly he was just saying the truth.

Allegri made him cut his hair after his debut when he literally said “he touched his hair more than the ball”

Exactly.

Alex Ferguson literally split David Beckham's head open by hitting him in the face with a football boot

Beckham didn't cry or complain once about it and nobody really hated Ferguson for it.

A small verbal dig never did anyone any harm.

Big difference - those were both experienced and respected coaches.

Fagotta Sharmotta is a nobody in the coaching world, and he should have just been more direct with the player, instead of circumventing by making asinine and insipid remarks.

You's all complain about our players being pussys but then you complain when a manager hurts their feelings by barely insulting them with some constructive criticism

Bring back this

Here's context for you, he's 19 shouldering the pressure of the number 10 jersey, but ignore all of that, this is the only context that matters: did this shit motta pull work on yikdiz or any other player for that matter ?

:agree:

Motta would receive the benefit of the doubt with yildiz if he were otherwise successful/ popular with players. He isn't, so he doesn't.
Wonder how Mr. "I consider myself very competent" would have reacted to one of his players reminding him that he isn't exactly prime Mourinho.

You know, just a bit of "constructive criticism."

It's not how to motivate a player. It's just utter bullshit he said this to Yildiz.

There is nothing constructive in telling a young player "you are not legend x".
Constructive would be "you didn't manage this time , but you are going to next time ; keep working hard and you can potentially be like legend x in the future".
That's conatructive.
That's actually more than constructive. That's one of the better examples of framing I used with employees whenever they'd f up.

Rather than just slapping themselves upside the head and calling them idiots, you leave them believing that you had much higher expectations of what they're capable of. That they just blew their opportunity to do that for x, y, z reasons but with determination, focus, and effort they are capable of getting it right.

People are 10x more motivated by that than they are the Pep Guardiola School of Avoidance that Eto'o and Zlatan had to suffer at Barça. Motta made even Guardiola look better.

You can only be measured by results. And given that Juve pretty much continued its club form as a literal sh*t factory that took talent and money at the intake and produced raw sewage, he did nothing to change that.
