These are the most chaotic training highlights I have seen for some time

 

Hope he’s kept on the bench unless needed tomorrow.

"Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, your standard there is excellent, beautiful" 

During the simplest training exercise I've ever seen.

Who killed Kenny? Notable absentee in all that so expecting him to have a day off tomorrow.

And just what are the "standards" they are all training to?

Bit concerning seeing Andy Hughes doing coaching sessions, wasn't exactly a magical footballer was he.

Didn't even realise that was Andy Hughes.

Just noticed the OTT praise for somebody passing a ball a few yards.

Difficult one as he could probably do with some game time.

Proves nothing, there are plenty of successful managers who weren’t great players.

Fair enough. Would you want him as our next manager?

I suppose Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard back up your theory as in reverse does Wenger.

After the video cut and players went inside ,

Andy Hughes spent 10 mins alone clapping all sides of the training pitch

Naff session. A rare spotting outdoors of the Lesser Spotted Sorensen and Forshaw. Warner not gone on loan yet either.

 No, but no one is suggesting he should be are they?

Most coaches running sessions don't tend to be top ex footballers to be fair.

It's a far cry from the efficient and disciplined training of the Reimer/Domogalla/John days - players playing one touch football, triangles, concentrating on movement and position. A lot of the training match they showed here was just a free for all.

Actually bizarre how people think being a "top ex pro" is a qualifier for being a top coach or manager. Edit: plus I would suggest being a good Championship Player, whilst not being Pirlo, is pretty ****ing high level for a footballer in general.

Wayne Rooney sends his best though.

I say this with all respect; you truly have to move on from Daniel et al.

How far do you want to go back? We finished third in the top tier in 92-93. Back a few years ago I was personally extremely disappointed at how Farke's tactics and training were far removed from what we saw then.

Im not going back anywhere.

I’m not really talking about specific regimes, I merely talking about how he’s not wrong in pointing out that that training schedule looked dreadful. He was just using the Farke era as a marker to highlight the difference. No problem in doing that. It’s normal to compare one thing against another, it’s how you are able to recognise when something is better or worse than something else. You even did it yourself there, making a comparison to the halcyon days of 92/93.

I had better training sessions when I played Sunday league. Another comparison. 

If that snippet of training is representative of training in general, it’s worrying, and probably goes some way to explaining why the quality of football were producing is so sub standard.
