"Arjan, your movements are a little deformed, don't be afraid." Leeds United's fitness coach, Colin McGee, put his hands in front of his mouth and was shouting, "You're fully recovered, you're going to get hurt again if you move like this." ”

On the training ground, Robben, who had just returned, quickly raised his hand to signal that he understood after hearing the shouts of the team's coach.

Leeds United started their second half of the game non-stop after New Year's Day.

Leeds United were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Blackburn Rovers in the first round of the league, and two consecutive home draws have left Leeds United in desperate need of a win to regain confidence.

The good news is that Robben and Barry, who had been injured before, have finally returned from injury.

Arjen Robben had already taken the pitch in the last round to get a feel for the game, while Barry still had to wait and see before deciding when he would return.

On the sidelines McGee is the team's new first assistant coach, John Sheridan, who is leading the team through various training sessions.

On the other side of Sheridan is also new coach Speed, who is getting acquainted with the Leeds United coaching staff. Compared to Strachan, who had coaching experience before, Speed had just retired from the player and needed more time to get used to it.

This is the training area for the team's frontcourt players.

"To be honest, I didn't really want to be the first assistant coach." Sheridan began to complain to the two people next to him.

"Not you or who?" McGee said to him angrily, but Speed didn't answer.

Brian Kidd traveled to the United States just after New Year's Day to prepare for the formation of a new team.

The team held a coaching staff meeting just the day before yesterday after the addition of two new members. The first thing to do at the meeting was to elect a new first assistant coach.

According to the principle of seniority, this position should have been filled by Colin McGee or Chris Casper, but both of them took the initiative to refuse.

For good reason, one is a full-time strength and conditioning coach and the other is a full-time technical director. Casper, in particular, even uttered a very annoying remark.

"I'm a director, can I still be an assistant coach?"

Several of the people present at the time wanted to kill him.

So this glorious post fell to Sheridan. The other four people on the coaching staff, one is the goalkeeper coach, and the other three are all newcomers who have just become coaches this season.

In fact, in George Lee's heart, he was ready to let Gordon Strachan be the first assistant coach, because Strachan had actually been a head coach for a period of time before. It was only later that due to family reasons, he temporarily left the position of coach. It's just that Strachan said that he still has to adapt to the team, and now he is mainly learning and getting acquainted.

George Lee walked past and stopped to take a look at the training here, he had just come out of the team's medical team. The club has just shipped a batch of new medical equipment, including liquid nitrogen cold compresses, hyperbaric oxygen chambers and the like, in short, some high-tech products, which were added after the club cooperated with Leeds United Medical College.

Of course, Helen played a very big role in this. Originally, some of the equipment was not intended to be released to the club, but it was not possible to stop Helen from being a student of the professor, and the female professor agreed to add those things to the collaboration.

On the sidelines of the frontcourt players' training, goalkeeper coach Martin is giving lessons to the team's three goalkeepers. However, Martin seems to be a bit lazy, and most of the time it is the team's main goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar who explains the team's two young goalkeepers about their experience in attacking.

On the westernmost stretch of the training ground, none of the players were training. It should be that after the first phase of training, the players rest on the lawn in twos and threes.

Kelly and Strachan, who are in charge of training here and are on the coaching staff, were not with the players, and the two of them gathered around Casper, who was fiddling with equipment on the sidelines.

There were a few other people on the side of Casper, all of them holding computers and some other equipment to debug there.

"Chris, you'd better explain to me that these are what you call new technology?" George Lee walked briskly to Caspar's side and joined the onlookers.

"yes, it just came from Italy, and the label hasn't been torn yet." Casper said, not raising his head, but continuing to fiddle with his things.

George Lee picked up a small thing on the table, and sure enough, as Caspar said, the labels were still there.

“Gpexe。” He read it softly, but it sounded a little strange.

As an Italian brand, Gexe pioneered the application of GPS/LPS technology to team physical training, and the equipment produced by Gexe is a wearable sports data monitoring system for professional sports teams.

The system must have data that the coaching team cannot see with the naked eye, such as the player's full-court running distance, high-intensity running distance, high-intensity running time, changes in fatigue in both halves, energy expenditure, heart rate changes throughout the game, speed recovery after injury, number of accelerations, number of decelerations, maximum speed, anaerobic capacity, centrifugal activity, intensity load, number of sprints, number of jumps, etc. Among the many monitored data, the metabolic power critical point (MPE) is the cutting-edge indicator that Gexe has been researching. Metabolic Power Critical Point (MPE) is different from traditional data, and uses acceleration, work, eccentric exercise and exercise load to evaluate training intensity, effectively prevent sports injuries, and improve exercise level. Through Gpexe, coaches and athletes can easily monitor MPE, assess exercise intensity and recovery level, and make training professional, intelligent and data-based.

It's just that these things have not yet been officially put into use, and Casper learned about this brand of equipment through his powerful friends, and pestered George Li for several days to get him to agree to invest in the Italian company.

The benefit is that they are able to use their experimental products as soon as possible, and the data and usage feedback are reported to the Italian company for subsequent product development.

George Lee played with the little thing again, and then tucked him into the sports vest that was sitting aside.

He then took off his coat and slipped the sports vest on himself.

"Chris, I'm going to try it now, and if it's useless, I'll slowly deduct these millions from your salary."

"Go ahead, I feel like it doesn't make a difference if I sell myself to you anyway."

George Lee waved his hand, signaling that he was ready to try the new thing.

He shouted to the players who were resting, "How's the rest, can someone try this new thing with me?" ”

On the training ground, Charlotte Black and Danny Rose took off their coats, revealing their sports vests underneath, which also contained the same data collector as George Lee. The two of them were young and eager to practice more, so they took the initiative to train with their head coach.

It's just that they noticed that the manager suddenly trembled.

George Lee turned around and squirted at Casper.

"Chris, what's this TM. Purple is not like purple, pink is not like pink, it is more like an egg, and it will shake. Are you sure you didn't take the wrong thing? ”

George Lee felt more and more that this thing was not serious, how could it look like a certain feminine product.

"I'm sorry, George." Casper's voice came from not far away, "I just turned on the phone for you remotely, and it will shake when you turn it on." ”
