1 week agoWhy clubs shouldn't freeze players out, like Chelsea are doing with Raheem Sterling
If I had to use one word to sum up the practice of separating players from the first team by forcing them to train at different times, often with just one or two others, simply because their club no longer wants them, it would be 'spiteful.' If spiteful seems strong, I think it's worth asking yourself: Why does a player need to train alone if the club wants to get rid of them? Especially when there's no disciplinary issue?
