And coming to the very end, if he wasn't on the starting team and he had something to add, he'd still add it.
He wouldn't be sitting down at the back of the room just because he's not starting this weekend and not adding to the team.
and he's not doing it the right way like he do on Sunday you take it off him you know you just go all out because you can't turn on on Sunday it has to be done tonight is really important management would place huge importance on tonight Friday is a bit different they're still training they're still training hard Friday 25-30 minutes without the game maybe but this week is still hugely important like in that circle of trust when they're all getting together like
Anyone can add to it when they can.
