If the manager is not motivated indeed driven by the need to succeed then you will hardly find it in the players. A manager who is only motivated by job perpetuity, takes solace in bad luck and unfair playing environment. Will only deliver the bare minimum to satisfy the bosses upstairs. When you now have the misfortune of being owned by Mediocre Sam Kroenke, well that just kills it. The talented players will endure...for a while. Lets see what happens if we dont win anything this season.
