Press conferences.

How much do these affect a player? I realise that if you say a player is **** he'll be upset and vice versa, but what about the more subtle nuances?

EG, if you say after a player scores "He'll start banging them in on a regular basis from now on" does that make the player complacent, or make them feel pressure or what?

I've never considered it beyond the obvious.

I'd say it would depend on the players personality.
