well we probably need the rest considering how fucking knackered half our team look after 60 mins each game .
A rest after 7 games? Luckily we're not in Europe.
I'm wondering if the "Fitness team" are hammering them maybe a little too much.... surely they should now be concentrating more on skills and tactical work specifically in the season....
Obviously fitness work needs to be done but we do look a bit leggy in the last couple of games.

Do you think they are actually getting hammered during training? Maybe if they are then that is an issue.
Anyway, I think a lack of games is good as it gives the team lots of time in the training ground without having to travel too much to gel together.

I remember Rafa hammering the team in training one season & them not looking fit for a couple of months, but then looking far sharper than ever before.
I'm hoping something similar is happening.
I don't think it's too much of a stretch to imagine that when Rodgers came in the squad were training at a lower fitness level that he was used to at Swansea where the focus is on pressing for 90 mins.
That's not a dig at Kenny, as 'sports science' has massively changed training in the last few years, never mind longer, & whilst I doubt he ignored it I think it's reasonable to suggest it may not have been as fitness oriented as it was playing & passing.
