Afternoon Reds!
This may have been mentioned already, but here goes anyway!
The squad are being put through their paces in warm and sunny Qatar. Sounds ideal to get away during a time where we have the time to, work on our fitness, do some bonding excersises and get away from the PL pressure cooker.
But it got me thinking. When the lads return for the game on Saturday, how the hell are they going to adapt to these conditions? Going from a warm and sunny termerature to the cold snap we are currenty in will take some adjusting. Then there is the potential for jet lag and sleeping problems etc
Would it have been better to put the lads through their paces in a climate which they will be playing in for the next few weeks and not rack up more air miles and travelling?
Just a thought! what do you guys think??
Warm Weather Training!

I saw the pajamas, I presumed they lost a 5 a side bet or something. Dunno why Giggs and Scholes are wearing matching pjs. Seems to be a good atmosphere within the squad anyway.
On a other note, do the club own a plane? All the seats have Utd towels on top of he seats.

Don't worry its only Fulham. The only threat is Berbatov but based on last week end, he seems to have given up running around altogether. You'll be fine. 5 - 1 United. At least you're not headed for the WWF grapplefest that is the Britannia stadium.
