I'm watching Chelsea smash Wigan for the Premier League title, thinking about the World Cup in South Africa in another month and got to wondering this -
Which of the following is a starting player on a World Cup-bound team most likely to do shortly after a hard practice?
a. Go home.
b. Play a quick pick-up game with whichever teammates still have the energy to do so.
c. Gather with teammates to discuss the latest news and goings-on in the sport.
d. Drill frequently-encountered, critical situations (corner kicks, give 'n' gos, scoring plays) with whichever teammates are interested.
