The training session was soon underway, and it followed a basic preset.
The manager split the players into two teams of eleven players each, which totaled 22 players, and told them that they would do a training match against each other.
Since there were only 22 players called up, there wasn't anyone left out.
The manager then told the two groups that only one of the two groups of the players would be the team that would be in the starting line-up.
There was a catch though.
If a player in the same position on the other team performed better, then the manager would swap the better performing player into the winning team.
Thus, the training session would consist of repeated matches against each other while the manager constantly swapped out the players till he picked out the players who performed best and worked best with each other.
The manager's thoughts behind this training method were clear.
