"I can only conclude that Eddie doesn’t want to understand, that’s it’s more convenient and easier for him to judge me on my past.

"Eddie rules by fear, and you’re never going to get the best out of people with that mindset. Why would a player make a decision based on what they see, which might be different and surprise the opposition, if they know Eddie’s going to come down on them like a ton of bricks if it doesn’t come off?"
