Holiday Hot weather training

Surely most of first team squad will be away on various international duties either competitive or Friendlies?

Martinez
Olsen
Cash
Disasi?
Digne
Konsa
McGinn
Tielemans
Onana?
Kamara?
Watkins - unless injured
Bailey?
Rogers


If that lot are away - is it really worth it?

For starters, Kamara and Disasi aren't in the French squad. Plus Unai wants to try the Salt Bae steak restaurant.

Hot weather training, it's suddenly going to be 30c in B6 is it? it was 2c last night and bloody freezing, snowed on my way in on the Hagley Road.

[Archbishop Herbert Cockthrottle]

Its to prepare for Paris. Gets hot on the continent.

Its to prepare for Paris.

It'll get them used to playing in a foreign city renowned for its history and culture.

We aren't playing next weekend. Internationals are after that. See it more as a supervised holiday abroad for the team.

Internationals start Thursday 20th so I'd expect players to join up with their squads this Monday coming. I assumed Dubai was for the 12 or so who won't be called up plus some youngsters.

[Somniloquism]

I understood everyone was flying out for the initial weekend etc, with the call-ups then returning back for their international teams and the rest stopping out there a bit longer.

Seems that is no longer the plan. Still see it as a supervised holiday though.

Mings said last night “We have a few days off “
It’s up to players to remain sensible as Emery said this final two months the players have to be at their best.

I hear McGinn's organised a big piss-up in Dublin.

Would be daft not to given the St. Patrick's Festival is on this weekend.

Well McGinn should know better if he’s going to Dublin again.
Also McGinn is Scottish not Irish  so it’s probably another false rumour like those nonsense Asensio stories .
That was insulting to every man, woman and child!

Now that they've cancelled the Patrick's Day parade in Brum, Dublin is the obvious second choice.

I’d think he’s already booked his Ryanair flight.

It will be interesting to see how much of the squad does go to Dubai. Are over half our senior players regular internationals?
