Hiya Guys
Training today was very subdued, no Kompany, Richards or Robinho attending, the team from Saturday had a slightly lighter session than the rest of the squad.
It was the usual drills of fitness then ballwork on the pitch, trying to close down opposition or create space which ever way you look at it.
Very flat atmosphere though, only to be expected after the performance on Saturday.
A couple of plusses though, Bojinov took a full part in training, whilst it's obvious he doesn't like the fitness stuff, he comes alive on the practice pitch. Benjani was also out working with the fitness coaches, accoring to one coach he feels that they will both be close to being available in the next couple of weeks.

There was no Johnson or Petrov today.
A long session, when I left, the players who didn't play on Saturday were still going strong and that was around 12.30, they started about 10.30.
Overall there was little cheer, but the effort was there.
