Nothing New in Football Managers have always had to deal with Unhappy PlayersOver the weekend two players have spoken out in the media about being unhappy with the treatment they received at their previous clubs. Two former Tottenham full-backs, Alan Hutton and Luke Young are relieved to have left their former clubs and have a chance to start afresh at a club where they feel wanted.Alan Hutton claimed that he felt unwanted at Tottenham under Harry Redknapp and being instructed to train with the youth team was the final straw. He knew that he had to leave as his confidence was gone. Luke Young found himself in a similar position at Aston Villa and is happy to have returned to London to play for Queens Park Rangers. Ironically, it is Hutton who is replacing Young at Villa and there he will meet up with his former manager at Rangers, Alex McLeish.Attempting to keep players happy is a problem that managers have always had to face and it often occurs when a club changes their manager and the new occupant has his own ideas about how the team should play and who he wants to have in the team. This leads to discontented, disillusioned players and the longer one is omitted from the team, the worse the problem becomes.In Chris Pronger Women Jersey the past, there was the first team and the reserves with the reserve team consisting mostly of inexperienced or younger players who would step into the first team if a senior player were injured or lost form. This season, Tottenhams 25-man Premier League squad contains twenty two players with international experience, most of whom have cost Spurs a fee, who all feel that they should be part of the first team. Add a number of promising youngsters who need experience to further their development and the manager has numerous difficult decisions to make.All managers encounter these difficult decisions with Manchester City being a prime example at the present time. Previous Spurs managers have had to deal with similar situations where certain players have been out of favour. O sie Ardiles omitted Paul Allen from the team which left the player di satisfied and so he was transferred to Southampton. He also left out David Howells but as soon as Gerry Francis took over, Howells was the first player he added to the team and remained a regular member during Francis time at Spurs. David Pleat decided that Graham Roberts, a fans favourite for his total commitment, decided Carter Hutton Men Jersey that his style of play didnt fit in with how he was wanting Spurs to perform so the player joined Chelsea with a not too complimentary comment from Pleat ringing in his ears.The great Bill Nicholson had to cope with similar problems when he dropped Jimmy Greaves in January, 1970. Greaves didnt want to be playing for the reserves so he went to West Ham United in part exchange for Martin Peters. Earlier in his managerial career Nicholson had to make a difficult decision over Tommy Harmer. Harmer was nicknamed The Charmer and was adored by supporters but when John White arrived to play a similar role, Harmers opportunities in the team were reduced. In October, 1960 he was transferred to Watford. Similarly, when Eddie Baily who had been an important part of Spurs succe sful Push and Run team, found himself left out of the team in the mid-1950s, he decided to move on and joined Port Vale.The greatest mistake made by a Spurs manager in such circumstances may have been the transfer of Jimmy Seed at the start of the 1927-28. Seed had been a star performer in the succe sful Tottenham team of the early 1920s but he lost his place in 1926 through injury and was unable to get back into the team. At the start of the next season, he was allowed to leave for Sheffield Wednesday. Towards the end of the season Spurs were seventh with Wednesday last. In an incredible finish, Seed was made captain at Wednesday and inspired them to avoid relegation while Spurs slumped and dropped to the 2nd Division.As in all walks of life, managers will have their favourites and players who will respond to their style of management. Other players find it difficult to fit into the new regime where originally they had been an important member of the team. In such circumstances, players simply have to bide their time and wait for an opportunity to get back into the team. If they cant and are obviously surplus to requirement then as Hutton realised at Tottenham under Harry Redknapp, it was time to move on and make a fresh start.
