Yes Tony you are from Drunkcuntingdon, the capital of washedupville. Now STFUAGTFObut I come from a different place, time and culture."
He's managed to take FC Gabala from 6th in the Azerbaijani league to 7th.
That's a kind of success, in that they haven't been relegated yet.
Then again there are only 12 teams in their league.
If Wenger is such a great motivator why have we bottled it in each of the last 6 seasons. Moreover why is it that when the pressure is one we've gone missing.
Please....one game against a team who aren't all that proves jack sh*t, if anything it's Chesney that turned the match for us.
Not sure how what Adams said is being debated on here. Has nothing to do with him being a garbage manager.
As a player for Wenger, he believes that Wenger is a bad motivator but good at various other things.
Some of the stuff we've seen from Wenger's sides over the last few years back this up.
The King Is Back.
Pretty much, Adams played under Wenger he should know what Wenger is and isn't good at.
He's said nothing more than we already know, Wenger can't motivate for sh*t, if he could we'd have picked up a trophy or two in the last 6 years.
When Adams played under Wenger, the team were motivated to win a couple of doubles and a few other bits of silver. Wenger was the manager then, as now. Of course, the kind of opposition we were facing was not as great as now.
Why even attempt to dispute something like this? It's Tony Adams and he's not only one with this opinion. Wenger doesn't do the loud, hairdryer, 'Any Given Sunday' type speech when talking to his players.
Dixon said he found Wenger motivating. I guess some players like Adams need their arses kicking, others need encouragement.
We've got a lot of players in our squad that need an ass kicking. Putting your trust in them is one thing and can motivate players, but when someone is in a funk and the team is showing bad form, you need a different approach. Softly spoken words of encourgament won't work.
