Bob Weasel Fox Posted 1 January 2012 Posted 1 January 2012 Just talking about Beckford & SSL? Sven didn't play SSL unless he had to & then Mills & Bamba were restored as they were both available, so the problem would have existed whoever was in charge Beckford? Try finding a Leeds fan with a good thing to say about him, even when he was banging in over 30 a season I think Beckford could be really handy for us & if he wants to be here (he played like he did when he came on yesterday) then he'll have a big part to play as soon as we can get some shape to the rabble of mis-matched, unbalanced players that is impossible to pick a decent 11 out of. Like Kitch said above Sven was a hands-off manager, there was never any consequences for players actions Already NP is shipping one out And if the rumours about Moore & Kennedy being in matchday squads are true, there's going to many more of these sub-standard, workshy, non-acheivers shipped out before he's finished I have every confidence NP will leave no stone unturned in trying to make a silk purse out of this sow's ear of a season. Even players still here from 2 years ago have lost that spirit & die for each other attitude which made them perform better than the sum of their parts We've got just the man to sort it i hope your right cc star
volpeazzurro Posted 1 January 2012 Posted 1 January 2012 Sven has never handled any egos, he's simply let them do what they like. It was the same with England, the players called the shots because he couldn't discipline them or make changes if they weren't doing their jobs. Nigel will ship out arseholes and that's a good thing. Absolutely agree with all of that and the quicker the better!
flowwolf Posted 1 January 2012 Posted 1 January 2012 To be fair, both Beckford and Saint-Ledger have been known to have a particular attitude for ages. It's neither a secret nor really down to Eriksson. Erm slap my arse and call me Brenda but how can it not be down to Erickson ? HE bought both of them and as you said it was no secret they both had attitude before they came here.

But certain managers know how to handle them to get the best out of them and others don't. Different managers deal with players in all different ways. Look at DJ Campbell for instance people said he had a bad attitude with Pearson but then he goes to Blackpool gets on fine with Holloway.

Very true but both those players had attitude problems under Erickson's tenure as well. So it still boils down the fact HE bought them.
