Almost everybody out today , the exceptions being Ireland ,Kompany ( doing 1 to 1 again) and Robinho. Overall it was quite a low key session with plenty of warm up in 2 groups followed by some attacking work. The aim being slick fast passing and moving with the end product a shot on goal. Some of it worked but far too often the final ball wasn't too good. Best finishers I saw were Johnson and Petrov. Before anything like real football took place the majority of the squad finished!
It looked like the main players for monday were the ones who left and the rest took part in a 6 or 7 a side game and were joined by 7 reserve players.Best player on show in the match was probably Stu Taylor who made a couple of great saves before David Ball did score. ( Adebayor did have a laugh in goal before this game and being the positive that I am I will say he was average )
Nothing definite re Ireland who had his problems in midweek. I think he had a bit of a virus and although much better isn't 100% over it. Impossible to know if he will be ok for Monday . When the main training ended a few stayed for a bit extra and the most notables here were Petrov and Weiss who were putting in a great stint.
The news broke that we had got Scunthorpe in the cup which seemed to go down well. I think the days are gone where that would have been a worry!
