I would like to be able to hold regular meetings with the squad to determine short term targets.
For example - currently Ipswich 2nd season in Premier League - run of games - United at home, West Ham Away, Liverpool Away and Newcastle at Home with a cup Match away at Chelsea.
I would like to be able to discuss my expectations without affecting Morale too much. A realistic target is 2 points from the 4 games, but even if I lose all 4 it would not be too unexpected! This type of run of fixtures can take a massive dint in morale if they dont get any results and setting those goals would help with this especially if they over achieve.
Also in the opposite way if I get a very good run of fixtures I might want to be able to raise my expectation and say 9 points from the next 4 games is expected.
These conversations must happen in real life.
