On the plus side our microphone is much better than FGR’s as IB cut out a few times. On the negative side IB was a better whistler than LW though I think with more training he will improve
Watching that video seemed to be info overload to the players.
Fair comment.
IB did come across more as a mate to the players than a boss at times, and his reaction to bad performances seemed too passive and forgiving for my liking. It's impossible to judge too much from one (edited) glimpse of a training session, but Luke Williams does come across as a bit more authoritative, which I think is good.
IB and NA both adopted the 'mate' approach and there is nothing wrong with that. As we know both were also very similar in post match interviews when we performed badly and/or lost. But they were just that post match interviews to the media knowing full well that they would be seen by the fans.
How they reacted behind closed doors in the dressing room is unknown and I suspect a different matter.
If LW is more of a taskmaster I would be pleased. It's when it goes too far you run into big trouble as a boss.
Sir Alex Ferguson got the balance right. He was your mate when you won!
