Sauführung

Hello,

Although I get the general idea, I would love to get a more precise translation of the following. This is taken from minutes of a meeting between Rundstedt and Balck on the eve of the Ardennes offensive. Bakck complains he lacks infantry.
Rundstedt talks:

"
Der Führer wird Ihnen schon sagen, was das für eine Sauführung ist, liebe Herr. Wenn die Sache da unten nicht klappt, dann platzt die ganze Westfront und alles, was der Führer vor hat.
"

Thanks,

Mori

Hi Mori,

you may replace "Sauführung" with negligent or blowsy command/leadership.
