He was commenting on his and Sao’s bans and said he didn’t have any complaints. Said Denive’s effort was lazy, sloppy and frustrated - which isn’t wrong. Said Sao’s was ‘marginal’.

And from where I was sitting, he's probably right.

What’s more concerning for me about Saturdays result and performance was it was the one game the squad and Coach had to get right and be up for the battle. We saw from the performance both on the field and by Grix as the stand in HC that we just weren’t anywhere near in any aspect be it effort, desire, pride or intelligence. Places for next season should not be taken for granted by the likes of Lane, Fash & Sao for example.
Myler and Cartwright have one hell of a job on their hands come pre season.
IMO. Mental strength is collectively cultivated during pre-season, the likes of Bellamy & Maguire are renowned for their torturous pre- seasons, this creates determination , teamwork, motivation etc. We didnt have this type of pre season, because simply, we didnt have the necessary support staff.

hopefully this will now change
I agree to an extent but don't think its because we simply didn't have the support staff, think its been a long standing issue even under Radford, then in a laid back weak inexperienced Coach in Hodgson followed by a Coach who seemed to have lost interest and desire and again too laid back. There has simply being no accountability since the end of 2018 from top to bottom and by the sounds of it, very much sulky attitudes if anyone got told judging by Aydins comments in the HDM today, which just confirms what most of have said for long enough. It's all been just far too easy and a comfortable environment without consequences or accountability almost as though failure is acceptable. With Cartwright incoming we will hopefully see seismic changes if he is the no nonsense type of guy/Coach he appears & reported to be.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!
they'll all be on social media calling out the toxic working conditions at the club if someone upsets them. No wonder we're in the state we're in. Some of them need to grow a backbone
