Chelsea staff believe that pre-season training sessions have been quite light on running so far. According to well-known journalist Matt Law.
Chelsea personnel believe Mauricio Pochettino has been “quite easy” on the players’ running during the first few of weeks of pre-season, according to a report yesterday on the Law.
The Blues stars, who are presently practicing at Cobham in two groups, will shortly depart for the United States to begin pre-season with five friendly games. Pochettino’s legendary running methods are likely to swing into high gear then.
The Law has provided insight into Chelsea’s approach to player fitness thus far:
Chelsea’s preseason schedule begins with a match against Wrexham FC
“I was told that the staff themselves feel like they’re going to go quite easy on the running,” he said on the London Is Blue podcast.
“From what I understand, they’ve been quite cautious with them thus far due to their injury histories.”
We believe the players have a lot more to look forward to as the pre-season begins in the United States.
However, Pochettino’s famous Gacon test was previously completed by Chelsea’s team earlier this week, with Blues left-back Ben Chilwell emerging as one of the strongest performers.
