Very Poor morale after commenting on opposition player

I have two players in my squad who's morale just goes from Superb to Poor or Very Poor after I comment in the press about the danger of opposition players.

But I see that I "have" to do this in order to lower the opposition players morale and make them unsure about their impact against us in our upcoming game.

Is there anyway to do this without my players being effected by it?

In their personal tab in my player's profile, it states that they think I should concentrate on ensuring that the team play to their full potential rather than commenting on opposition players.

Any advice please?

They are probably professional players with good sportsmanship so they don't enjoy that their manager says that kind of things.

I never comment on the opposition players because of this.

Yes all my players are fairly sporting/professional. You are right about that. But how else can you play mind games to lower the opponents morale without damaging your own?

Don't think you can in that case, you just have to weigh if it's worth to lower one player morale's when it lowers some of your own team..

That's why i stopped doing it since i always try to build highly professional squads.
