I love how McKenna bigs up Ladapo but encourages him to keep working 16:54 - Oct 27 with 583 viewsThe_Flashing_Smile

Seems simple but it's spot on. He does that a lot with players actually, a fine line between encouragement and 'but you need to do more'. For someone so new to management he seems to have such a mature, level head, generally.

I'd be cock-a-hoop if my start into management had gone so well, but he just straight-bats everything and doesn't really feel the need to bullsh!t anyone or jazz-up what's happened, as so many of our mangers have before (and many of the oppo ones do, especially the long-in-the-tooth ones). Astonishing how calm and collected he is. I want some of what he's on!

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Definitely his time as a coach, has given him the chance to analyse the wrongs and rights of being a manager.. super cool, calm and collective.. very rare in football management..

It's seemingly quite a common technique for him to use this "two stars and a wish" style of answering when talking about a player. Always the majority of the dialogue is praise and encouragement seemingly followed by an acknowledgement of the need to continually improve and work hard again before the next match.
