Was very interesting listening to Jermaine Jenas on Match of the Day 2 today.
They were discussing Alan Pardew and his 'touchline antics', and the general consensus was that whilst the fans prefer to see a manager who is 'active' on the touchline, shouting constantly etc. the players actually prefer the opposite. Jenas seemed to suggest that a manager who waves his arms around and 'kicks every ball' just confuses the players, and his actions show that he is perhaps out of control - particularly if the instructions aren't that helpful. Players, according to him, prefer a calm manager who sits and clearly shows faith that his players can do the job without him shouting and constantly giving instructions.
I suppose it's a psychological thing, interesting nonetheless. Just thought I'd bring it up given the discussion re: Clarke on Tuesday against Wrexham.

That would make sense, I mean if you watched Ferguson, Murinho and Wenger, they generally sit there quietly and get up every now then, shout a few instructions, and then sit back down again. Unless things are really bad! |

So hopefully its a sign of maturity and confidence, and nothing more. The results seem to prove it is the right thing for him to do

Letting the football do the talking......if it gets results, long may it continue.  |
