Agree on the point about players not needing to be coddled. He's played really well in some games and has been below his abilities on others.
This is likely more a statement by Hartley on how good he thinks Sven can be, and his opinion that while he's played well in a lot of the games, he has the skill and ability to be much, much better.
If taken the right way by the player, it could actually help.
