Thread: The dreaded bleep tests.

  1. #1

    The dreaded bleep tests.

    Who was the winner of the bleep tests on the first day of pre season training? Rubin Colwill it seems.

    This feels like propaganda.

    they did the same last season, I think Eli King won then.

    unfair advantage for Rubin though, he probably does the distance in about 4 strides

    I know but there’s no way Rubin won surely? One box-to-box run and he turns into Bambi on ice.

    I’m struggling to believe he’s the fittest player on the team right now.

    he covers a lot of distance during games, and has very high tackles/interceptions etc for an attacking midfielder - something that has increased year on year since he made this debut.

    I was definitely surprised to see who won, but Colwill’s running style always makes him look like he’s struggling, whereas his brother looks naturally athletic. I suppose it could raise questions as to general fitness levels in the squad.

    Interesting to see that Rubin was favored to win by quite a few of the squad.

    Exactly, the stats back up that Colwill covers ground and is decent enough defensively, but some have made their minds up about him being unfit/lazy and just won't hear it

    Trying to guess who you’re talking about. Is it Bellamy? Ramsey? Bulut? Or Riza?

    William Hill won’t pay out if they smell a rat!
