Jrimmer84 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hi, so I am a manager in the Northern National League at Tamworth and I want some peoples takes on teamtalks. At the moment if a player is rubbish I tell them, my current rule is anyone who performs under 6.7 I tell them there rubbish, 6.7-6.9 I tell them they are doing ok but can do better and 7.0+ I say they have had a good game, I am I setting myself up to be consistently average, I rarely get someone who has performed 8 or above, should I give them the hair dryer treatment with below 7 performances?

OrientTillIDie Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 No!! I would say anything below 6.5 is a bit pants so maybe then criticise. 6.5 up to 7 is a decent performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkbacca Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Excellent choice of team, just finished my 2nd season with them and won the Vanarama National League North. In terms of reading the riot act it's usually when they're under 6.4 (I consider 6.5 to be an average, if not forgettable, rating) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eple Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Depends on the situation and player personality. If your squad can handle pressure well you can comfortably be very demanding, but that not always the case. Sometimes a confidence boost is needed. I'm usually assertive and pile on the pressure, but I think it's wise to burst that pressure bubble every once in a while, just as much as it's important to burst the confidence bubble before it grows to big and you are left with a complacent side. If you see their body language is nervous and frustrated encouragement can have a better effect. If you see they are very confident and complacent, try to anger them by not giving them compliments or just saying nothing at all. Also, a mix of messages often gives the best results, in example a team wide hair dryer treatment coupled with individual supportive words, or visa versa.

HUNT3R Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 If you want to be harsh, be harsh. You will need the kind of personalities who would take that as a challenge, rather than crumble though. You can have a look at the team talk feedback to get a great idea of how your team reacted to your talks. I've written in a piece of Clear Cut Chance, that someone like Carrick was motivated and determined to put in more, even when I criticised the team at half-time, being 3-0 up and again 4-0 at full-time. It's just a matter of knowing the players you have and how to handle them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
