yarddog73 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 think its a case of finding a balance, one thing I suspect the manager has learned from last season on a number of fronts is not to over egg the pudding, sports science, psychologists, nutritionists all have a place in the modern game but ultimately the player is responsible for his own well being and condition.

So in a nutshell, common sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singe Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I wonder if top Olympic competitors figure it out for themselves? I bet they'd be :censored: if they tried They're even worse, an army of people helping them. But all behind the scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) What a weird thing to say. And it's PSYCHologists. It was obviously beyond you, but I was referring to Suarez. BTW in case you don't know, mad dog is two words, I will look out for any spelling errors of yours in the future and put them in capital letters so you don't miss them.

rudemedic Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Isn't he the one who worked with Suarez after his previous nibble on an opposing centre half? #expensiveandineffective Yep and the one who is credited as being a major reason why our track cycling team have won at least one medal, most of them gold, in all but one event at the last two Olympics.

rudemedic Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 A football psychiatrist. .I need a lie down. No more that he's a psychiatrist/undergraduate Dean who just happens to have developed a very profitable sideline. I'd fancy when LJ was talking about getting in a sports Psychologist, and the one he really wanted was £10k a day- that was Dr Steve Peters.

Diego_Sideburns Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 Forget new techniques get them running up and down Tandle Hills. Even the new gentle introduction to pre-season training seems to be taking its toll. jonson clarke-harris @ClarkeHarris · 1h Chilling day today feet up all day on sofa don't think I'll be moving legs in bits jonson clarke-harris @ClarkeHarris · 23h Legs are fully gone #preseason jonson clarke-harris @ClarkeHarris · Jun 25 Ohh my 1st day of pre season in morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
De_La_Vega Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) Craig Bellamy thought that fitness experts were bull:censored: when he was at City, so when (Hughes was manager I think) a Dutch specialist was brought in with new-fangled ideas he was so suspicious that he kept his own fitness diary with results of bleep tests and such. The change in performance due to more modern !methods had such a profound impact that even after a change of manager saw the coach leave City, Bellamy paid out of his own pocket to carry on working with him.

Since the early 80's. Hardly a massive statistic considering the amount of footballers that have passed through the ranks in that time.

Hardly a massive statistic considering the amount of footballers that have passed through the ranks in that time. Hardly a massive statistic? One is a massive statistic, wouldn't you say? Anyway, that's three that to my knowledge; we could also add those who have been helped, or who are still in therapy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, for example those footballers who have had problems with addiction will in almost all certainty have been seen by someone who trained as a psychiatrist.
