That’s what KM said.
And they’ve both gone out for the warm weather training camp as well so must be nearly there. |  |

How long was the journey to this warm weather training camp, if they're only possibly still just nearly there? |  |

Philogene/Nunez/Young all seen at Derby - I suspect they flew out of somewhere like East Midlands straight after the game and may well just fly back into the North West on Thursday ahead of the game.
Believe they are in the Canary Islands this time round. | |

All come back and catch flu I expect. Warm weather camp,what ever next. They should be here training as normal. Being used to our climate is of more benefit than going out there catching god knows what on flights etc……Players today are so soft compared to years ago. |  | | |

Must be some sports science shíte.
Perhaps a team bonding trip as well? | |

Apparently these are some of the benefits of it! :
Warm-weather camps during the English winter mainly help players train with higher quality, recover mentally, and refine tactical work without the disruptions and constraints of cold, wet conditions.
Physical and performance benefits
Warmer temperatures make it easier and quicker to warm up muscles, so less of the session is spent getting up to temperature and more on football-specific work.
Players can tolerate higher training loads because muscles and tendons are more pliable in the heat, which supports explosive actions and may help reduce some cold‑related muscle strains.
Consistent, dry pitches and predictable weather allow for high‑intensity sessions without frozen or waterlogged surfaces disrupting plans, so coaches can deliver the training they actually designed.
Increased sun exposure boosts vitamin D levels, which are often low in Premier League players during winter and are linked with performance and bone/muscle health.
Mental and psychological benefits
A change of environment and escape from dark, wet English winter days improves mood and motivation, countering elements of seasonal affective symptoms and mid‑season mental fatigue.
Being away together encourages team bonding and integration of new players, with fewer outside distractions and media demands, which can strengthen cohesion and group spirit.
Breaking routine can help players and staff mentally “reset” after congested fixture periods, arriving back fresher and more focused for the run‑in.
Tactical and coaching benefits
In warmer, more comfortable conditions players are not preoccupied with staying warm and dry, so they have more mental bandwidth to absorb tactical information.
Coaches can spend longer on slower, more static tactical drills (e.g. unit shape, rest-defence work, set‑piece structures) without players getting cold and losing concentration.
With the squad in a camp environment, staff have near‑total access to players for team meetings, video analysis and one‑to‑one work, which is harder when everyone leaves the training ground straight after sessions.
Scheduling and load-management benefits
Mid‑season breaks used for warm‑weather camps help clubs keep fitness high without the interruptions caused by frozen pitches or postponed sessions back in England.
The controlled environment makes it easier for sports science and medical staff to manage individual loads, monitor recovery, and align gym, pitch and rehab work into a coherent plan.
Heat exposure itself can act as a form of conditioning, with cardiovascular adaptations from training in warmer conditions potentially carrying over when teams return to cooler matches.

Nothing like a warm weather camp to prepare you for a trip to Wrexham in Feb.
Be better off putting them through one of those Tesco car washes |  | | |

Taking a leaf out of the England & Wales Cricket Board's elite match preparation book - lounge on the beach, get drunk and have fights with nightclub bouncers. |  |

You need to do some research on the benefits of Warm Weather Training. This is precisely the sort of thing that can give us the edge - both in performance and reducing injuries.
Science has moved the game on significantly. | | | |
