I see part of your point. There's supportive, assertive and the least liked, aggressive management styles. Clearly Evans was the latter. The point I was making was that some players don't like being told the truth when it comes to underperforming. It was probably Evans' style that lost him control of the dressing room and players respect how he communicated with them.
There are several ways to communicate your points to someone but, not everyone likes poor feedback or shall we say constructive criticism. That was point I was trying to make. I have on another post expressed my dislike for Evans tenure this time around so I'm not standing up for him here either.
On the point of Jordan, he was actually playing much better on the three previous games Evans last used him but, he suddenly dropped him back to the bench, lord knows why? As for yesterday, he looked like he had more bite in him, the player we first signed springs to mind.
He has 1 year left on his contract so it's down to him to 'stand up' if he wants more game time. I have the feeling he will do just that IF given the chance by Matt.
