Coaches are not necessarily there to give all the answers, and as Tomaso put it so well, giving solutions to the players is the sedative to creativity. </p><p><br></p><p>We also spoke about creating the right environment which instils players with courage, creating hunger, establishing standards but also as a coach, how you create your own path.</p><p><br></p><p>Let me know what you think</p>","author_name":"James Shaw"}
