They also did gym work today.

This actually is a sport with a ball btw.

Emery: Today we are going to practice tactical drills.

Players: Si senor. What does tactical mean in English?

Seing Jenkinson still involved makes me cringe

Funny.

The ball doesn’t generally get introduced on the first day of preseason, but I guess it varies depending on manager.

Reminds me of…

Whoa! A rare Jenkinson is spotted!

Weird seeing a different manager doing training, like the look of it though.

Examples to support that? Or is that just an assumption you made? The only other club I follow on social media (Feyenoord) also had work with the ball on the first training. Or so it seemed on the pictures.

Well it use to be an established norm in English football that there would be no ball work for the first week or so. In the early stages there was an emphasis rebuilding fitness after the break.

Nowadays players do a good job of maintaining fitness over the break, so there’s less of a need to rebuild fitness. Like I said above it varies from club to club

I found ball work on the first day interesting, it must mean the players are super fit and, or Emery wants to get his ideas implanted very early on

This isn’t really a point worth arguing tbh

Sounds like Sev is still back in the 90’s haha

‘English football’. It doesn’t mean players are superfit at all. Like I said gym work was also done today. But sure.

Already back in training?

Wenger used to make me stand over there when training was going on
