Michael nodded his head in approval when he heard how Jurg handled his training. Through the use of a punishment that all sane footballers dreaded, he was stimulating his players to perform to the best of their abilities. Furthermore, as for the defenders against forwards, it was simply genius!
He was making his forwards play against his defenders hence he could simultaneously identify, analyze and rectify any weakness that either group of players had. It was simply genius.
How come I hadn't thought of that?
Michael combed through his hair with his hand while watching the group of players training. He looked at the midfielders and smiled. They were better than what he would've expected from a bunch of teenagers.
They weren't as erratic or selfish as he assumed most youngsters were. They were calm and coordinated even when they were under pressure. He looked at David who just passed the ball away and furrowed his brows.
