It's not about handling it childishly like Gulutzan did. That buys you short term effort and then you've already exhausted your "limits" and guys probably stop taking you seriously.
But it's about being firm and calling a spade a spade when certain players are letting the group down. It's about not letting them off the hook when they decide to have efforts like tonight. That approach is what helps you avoid effort like tonight.
