It's simple. He doesn't back his players. He doesn't believe in his players.
Compare and contrast with Lambert - in the face of a catastrophic run, and being humiliated in front of the nation by a League 2 side.
The first job of any manager anywhere is to make his players feel ten feet tall by backing them and backing them and backing them. Our manager does the opposite. He's scared, so they're scared: all any football team is is the extension of their manager's personality.
