This bloke doesn’t pull any punches.

So he wasn't impressed with the performance?

Ah, that's why he's so upset.I wish he'd been more specific.

In the early days of the internet, this would be begging to be edited and remixed. It’s just his delivery of ‘we were rubbish’. He says it with enough exasperation and fury to power a power station.

He's showing a lot of signs of trying to self sooth.

I actually reckon he's trying to hold back, the folded arms are a sign of confrontation but also reservation. The licking of his lips would say he's trying to self sooth and hold back. Being mindful that he could say far more. The looking away with swift glances and quick replies would say he wanted to get the interview over and done with ASAP. I don't know how his side did, but responses like this will either result in his departure from the club or to get a better response from the players.

Personally, I'm judging his closed demeanour and think he's under pressure.

It's a very funny interview, but you also have to feel for a manager that expects more from the players. This is the reaction of someone who cares about his job, his role and club.

He should consider a career in politics and maintain his transparency. He would certainly stand out from the crowd!

He appears to be nearing a mid-life crisis, but his openness will allow him to recognise and express it if it occurs. I’m curious if he behaves this way in board meetings when things don’t go as planned.

i can imagine him having a similar reaction to a restaurant getting his food order wrong or him disliking the meal. its not good for his stress levels but its funny and probably very honest.

It's funny, but he needs to look at his own decisions and take some blame for the performance. If he tells the players what to do and they don't do it, he has a chance to change things during the game. So he can take some of his own words on board.
