Without hesitation, Cesc poured criticism …”Football has changed a lot. A lot! The change started about five years ago and is now clearly visible. The change has happened and will remain so. Today’s methodology is based on automatism. It basically comes down to the coach telling you where to pass the ball at all times. The players are exactly in place. Football has turned into a game of robots today, “Fabregas said.SUN: 22.00: (2.15) ALMERIA (3.35) GIRONA (3.50)The mercurial player points out that too much attention is paid to physical fitness in today’s football.”Many coaches are obsessed with numbers. If you don’t reach certain numbers – you are not ready to play, and if you are resting, you also need to have certain numbers to maintain the level. Sometimes I am ‘old school’ in that regard, but I experienced great moments in my career. I’ve reached that without hard training or great physical and mental seasons. Today, they think that you can’t be good if you don’t train. It’s all based on science, numbers and GPS,” Fabregas concluded.
