Any wonder why we are so shit at this game as a club and as a country with that attitude.

Wonder how long those blokes at Bayern Munich who form the core of the German WC side and a damn fine elite euro club train for each day??

Bet you it ain't 75 minute sessions
I have asked this question, the main reason is due to the hardness of the pitches here in Aus - both at the playing and training venues. The euro pitches are much softer and hence easier on legs, knees, joints, ligaments etc enabling longer sessions for ballwork, technical drills, etc
It wont change until the clubs have their OWN training facilities tailor-made for football which is quite an expensive investment for clubs who are still making losses.
If the players were on similar training regimes to the european leagues, players would be breaking down even more regularly than they are now.
