Back in the dugout 5 mins and having a pop at Dundee United
https://stv.tv/sport/football/143104...nd-misleading/
He has to be the most disliked individual in Scottish Football and that's some going. You'd think with all the people rising over it to wish him well after his short health scare he'd keep a low profile and show a bit of respect.
If he had left the "nearly ruined" comment out of this interview it would have been fine but to say that is out of order and forced DU to come back at him.
He's a guy who it's very difficult to warm to.
It's classic Levein arrogance, the implication being that it's only thanks to HIM that Souttar's career was 'saved'. As you say, plenty of sympathy for the guy when he took ill, but he's got a inflated opinion of his own worth bearing in mind his shambolic stewardship of the national team.
Doctor football is back. Expert and commentator on all aspects of football so long as winning absolutely nothing, ever, is the benchmark.
The man who ushered in the Cathro revolution and signed all the players.

I must say, it's refreshing that things are back to normal, and we can stop patronising him with good wishes. Man's a welt.
He's probably about right though to be fair.
Feels like he is trying to belittle Dundee Uniteds involvement in his development in order to reduce the development fee they'd be due them when he moves on.
His hoof ball tactics and team of hammer throwers kicking anything that moves have been responsible for far more damage to individuals and the game as a whole.
The guy who invented the 4-6-0 should never criticise any one else in football.
Extra classy given its a club who he used to manage and did pretty well by him.
That Jambo prick could say "Beefster's nan is a saint" and I'd still have an instinctive need to disagree with him.
BBC Sportsound love his 'cheeky chappy' antics.
The person who has had the biggest impact on Souttar's career is his non-existent Australian granny.
The man's a tolly.
His team are sat top of the league with maximum points from their first 5 games and instead of trying to get credit for his players he puts the spotlight back on himself.
He is such a selfish, big headed and miserable human being
This the manager of the club who a few years ago played Callum Paterson in every position under the sun almost destroying his confidence? The hypocrisy is staggering at times from that club.
So he is claiming that young boys of 16 should only ever play in one position..... thats development!
What a load of keeeek he is spouting.
Any development coach will tell you that sometimes you have to play a player in different positions to see where he is comfortable.
I was coach at Cowdenbeath years ago with Keith Wright and Mickey Weir. I had a player who thought he was a centre forward but when I played him at right back, he was outstanding...it's all
about developing a player and finding his strengths.
Levein away and boil yer heid
Interesting that Souttar played in the same team as Ryan Gauld and was coached by Ian Cathro. The article is probably an attempt by Levein to big up himself and his pals (Cathro and Houston) while belittling Mixu and Jackie McNamara.
Levein is a funny wee political character. He's got pals and enemies and i dont think he easily forgets or forgives. Bitter man. Who shat himself in 86.
This is all about his favourite person, himself. It's a look how I have turned around a player who was almost ruined. He's a ****er, who has been and always will be a loser. 2nd best is the best Craig has ever been but we have BBC Scotland slavering at the mouth every time he speaks. The mediocrity and 640 all forgotten. Along with the hearts years of overspending, going tits up, bumping creditors including charities, fans attacking players and managers of the opposition, players leaving due to racist fans it's all swept under the carpet and they are now being held up as an example for us all to follow. And who can forget the £15m unfinished, restricted view, building site that is the new stand, all conveniently ignored. Let's not forget the pitch is too small to play international matches on but the media still keep going on about Tiny getting full internationals. The PR dept, assisted by the media, is unbelievable. In all senses of the word!
How do you guys get so worked up by him?
Why even read what he has to say if you always think he talks crap?
Just ignore him if he bothers you so much.
I'm confused, I thought we all loved Wee Craigie nowadays and that he's got a fantastically dry sense of humour?
Thinks change so quickly nowadays it's hard to keep up.
