So what you're saying is: we have players that are soft but the coach is more soft because he keeps selecting them?
Honestly, does Ross Lyon have a duty to make the players attack the ball once they cross the white line?? I wouldn't have thought so.
well, I would have thought that it's definitely RL's responsibility - who else could it be?
He influences the drafted players
He is in charge of training
He overseas the fitness staff
He picks his assistants and overseas them
He is in charge of the selection panel
He does the pre-game banter (or directs the person that does)
He is in charge at the 'box'.
There isn't or shouldn't be anything that he is not responsible for in the football department.
You can't blame the players - like he did yesterday - if they are soft - it's 'his' fault - either that or he is having one hell of a lot of 'bad luck'.
Every Saints player should attack the pill like it's a loaf of bread and they haven't eaten for two weeks.
Every Saints player should play each game like its their last.
Every Saints player should be motivated to the point of spewing without needing a third party to rev them up.
If Ross selects a player that needs motivating to play for the jumper, then he's selected the wrong player. But who ultimately shoud be to blame? The coach for picking a spiritless individual or the pr!ck are can't be bothered putting on the jumper and busting his gut to represent his club?
