Nordic Saint Posted 12 April, 2016 Share Posted 12 April, 2016 The father of one of our Academy lads told me about that. It's why our Academy products speak so well when interviewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Charlie Posted 12 April, 2016 Share Posted 12 April, 2016 Isn't life kinetics related to the stuff you see them doing in training throwing and catching those small balls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint-Armstrong Posted 12 April, 2016 Share Posted 12 April, 2016 Isn't life kinetics related to the stuff you see them doing in training throwing and catching those small balls? Yep. They get them to undertake two/three tasks at the same time and tell them they should be talking to a teammate while they do so. At least that's my understanding of it, anyway.

Saint in Paradise Posted 12 April, 2016 Share Posted 12 April, 2016 I see an ex Saints manager has agreed with Mr Koeman - bet that is very reassuring for him "Former Southampton and Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp believes footballers are too distracted by technology. The Derby County football advisor agreed with comments from Southampton boss Ronald Koeman that lifestyle changes mean players talk less. Koeman revealed he holds communication sessions, focused on how social media, mobile phones and headphones put players "in their own world." "There's not the communication there used to be," said Redknapp, 69. Redknapp, who has also managed West Ham, Portsmouth, Bournemouth and QPR, told BBC Radio 5 live: "You don't hear people go round and talk to each other. It doesn't happen. They sit with their headphones on". He just has to jump on any bandwagon doesn't he. :mcinnes: http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/36031181 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
