28 men in the Miniestadi
Berta Brau
Pep Guardiola had 28 players report for training today, including seven of the reserve team. The first session of the day saw Márquez, Gudjohnsen and Hleb back with the group.
The Miniestadi was the venue for a training session that got under way at 9.30.
Márquez, Gudjohnsen and Hleb return
The three players missed the Monday evening session. Márquez, who had
ischiotibial injuries in both legs and Gudjohnsen, with a groin strain, worked out in the gym,
while Hleb had been obliged to travel to Madrid and sort out his visa for the trip to the United
States.
On Tuesday, everything was back to normal and the players went through their paces as per normal.
Physical start
After a group discussion, the players warmed up and stretched before
doing a bit of circuit training. Divided into three groups, the players worked on strength and
fitness, changes of pace and ball control.
Players for US trip
This week the coaching staff will finally decide which players will be picked to travel to the USA,
with the main unresolved issue being which members of the B team will be getting the honour of
travelling with the first team stars.
