I don't know the answer to this. Perhaps you should ask the person responsible for ensuring that situations like this don't develop. A Mr M Hughes.

Erm, yes. That's what managers do.
Superhands said:like Ferguson handled McGrath (PFA player of the year after he left), Strachan (won title with Leeds at expense of Utd) and Keane ?
all of those situations may have been unavoidable - it may not have been possible for Fergsuon to resolve them
like Mourinho and Robben - what went wrong there ? just because a manager gets pissed off with one player doesn't mean he's a bad manager
my point is sometimes there is nothing a manager can do, lets not judge Hughes yet

A VERY UNDER RATED PLAYER. COULD DO A JOB FOR USJohnMaddocksAxe said:Hughes is presiding over a disfunctional squad, full on infighting, players who dislike him and players who have been so affected by his management that they have their heads on their chests on are shadows of their former selves.
This is a situation that those masters of being a disruptive, one dimensional, disciplinarian, ridiuclous charicature of a manager,Souness and Ball could only dream of engineering in such a small amount of time.
Even they took longer than this to turn their squads into bitter, disfunctional, ineffective areas thanks to their pathetic, outdated personalities.
The funny thing is though. This situation that he has allowed and encouraged to develop - its his one and only excuse for his reign being completely shit.
He is a busted flush and an outdated clown trying to live out Fergie's career.
Unfortunately for him it's not the 1960s and he isn't starting out at Queen of the South managing Jock McHoof or wherever he moved around to.

You're absolutely right! i remember baconface years ago saying "you'll never change their minds, if they are not on board then ship them out" now as much as i hate the T**T it seems to have worked for him.
