Rangers' players were left confused by Pedro Caixinha 's dressing room debrief style claims Graeme Murty.
Caixinha endured a nightmare stint in the Ibrox dugout back in March 2017 as he took the reins from caretaker boss Murty.
But just 27 matches later Murty was back in charge of Rangers as the axe fell after a disappointing draw with Kilmarnock.
When the Portuguese boss left Scotland, the club were languishing in third eight points behind league leaders Celtic and five behind second-placed Aberdeen.
During Caixinha's tumultuous period in charge, Murty acted as a bridge between the previous regime and the new coaching team.
However, he reckons players found the lack of a post-match analysis following a game confusing, with Caixinha looking to keep a clear head after a game.
Murty told BBC Sportsound: "I spent some time with Pedro on his staff.
"I went back to the academy but also helping Pedro.
"I was observing him, but helping him as one of his coaches, seeing what he was trying to implement and making sure there was that conduit between the players and the staff.
"That was my job, it was something I really enjoyed actually. There were some things there that I'd definitely take and there were some things there that some of the players found really strange.
"For example, he would not go in and talk to the players after the game because he thought it was too emotional.
"We'll just chill out, relax and do a debrief back at the training ground.
"Explaining that to them the first time, the British players were just used to the manager coming in and either praising them to the hilt or giving them a load of stick and venting at them.
"He didn't do it. They were sat poised waiting for the manager to come in and I just had to walk in and say 'he's not coming in guys, just get changed, off you go.' "
