Then you’re basically encouraging players not to take risks and therefore no rewards.
Every player will make mistakes - even the very best. The difference between them and others is that a) they don’t make many mistakes and b) they’re not afraid to keep trying.
There’s a difference in making a mistake in trying something that is to progress the team forward than a making an error in doing the basics.
But you enjoy mediocre players so no surprise
No - I'm encouraging them to learn from their mistakes and thereby improve their game.

Remember Riyad Mahrez's late penalty miss that could have given Manchester City two more points in the goalless draw here at Anfield in October?
Remember Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford's inexplicable error that gave Liverpool victory via Divock Origi's 96th-minute winner in the Merseyside derby at Anfield in December?
Remember how Crystal Palace's veteran keeper Julian Speroni was so badly at fault in the 4-3 win over Crystal Palace at Anfield in January?
Lloris can now add his name to that list, as can Sissoko, to add weight to the argument of those who believe there is a touch of destiny about Liverpool's Premier League pursuit season.

Yeah but he also doesn't save any shots
Without Fernandinho anyone can score on City
Him being allowed to commit professional fouls without punishment from PGMOL is the reason City's defence is good
Their offence is good because of their attackers being allowed to score from offside positions
Did I say that?
If a speculative pass doesn't come off that's no reason to not try again, but that's different from an unnecessarily risky move in a dangerous area that can lead to conceding. It's a matter of assessing the risk against the possible gain, and sometimes when faffing about in front of your own goal the former outweighs the latter. Under those circumstances it's best to learn from the mistake and not repeat it.
Football is based on several things and the risk to reward factor is dependent on circumstances. The best players make the wrong decision the fewest times. One of the (several) things that makes Virgil so good is that he knows when to play safe and just put the ball out rather than try and play his way out of trouble in a dangerous situation.
It's not so fashionable these days, but I trust him more than anyone else on the pitch.
That entire article was utter drivel. Trying to make out that we were somehow "fated" to win by divine intervention or something, rather than by our own skill and hard work.Phil McCunty in [HASHTAG]#meltdown[/HASHTAG]

I bet McNutty believes in jinxes too.
They could do a lot worse than OGS. He may not have managerial pedigree but he's been doing a great job.
Given the past 3 managers you are not wrong.
Going by that form they should have appointed warnock
Honestly, if I were a United fan (and didn't jump off a bridge in self loathing), I would prefer to have Poch over OGS.
But... OGS's team has been one of the highest performing teams since he took over and they don't look crap either.
OGS has shown himself to be better than anyone else since Fergie at United... Plus there is the whole nostalgia angle, I'm sure... It would be like if Djimi Traore took up management, turned out to be pretty good, and did a caretaker stint with us and improved our game 100%... That would be amazing.
It remains to be seen if OGS can do better with transfers than his predecessors
And a full season with pressure to perform, challenge for titles and bring through talent rather than just smiling and telling the current crop to express themselves...
Next season's United won't be the same as now unless he's suddenly woken up a managerial messiah given his uninspiring past with Cardiff, United reserves and Molde
Djimi trade got a champions league medal.
Solskjear got one.
Yes I can see they are basically identical
Don't expect any player to have 100% anything. However, I do expect to see players learn from mistakes.
At least we know who isn't a top keeper.
