Liverpool brought in Neuro 11 to help them this season. The device and its operator helps to improve players’ mindset, intelligence and focus. It boosts shooting accuracy and calibrates the mind to make decisions quickly
With this device, Liverpool practiced penalty kicks for weeks before their Carabao final against Chelsea and they scored all. Whether this helped is subjective.
This is the how far the world has gone in football and science
Whereas in the NPFL, teams are still focused on winning through substituted means. Some club administrators are either embroiled in one problem or the other that they fail to do the basics
For some teams, their training methods are archaic and there is little the coaches can do.
Some coaches too are not ready to adapt to the ever changing trends in world football.
Why would a professional club vehemently oppose livestream for their home games? The world of football has gone beyond petty self subjugation
A coach once took players to “classroom” with a whiteboard. Some players slept while others mocked him and said: “this is NPFL.” Players should adjust and go beyond the normal routine if need be.
Football continues to improve at a blistering pace. Is the NPFL ready to improve or are they content with running round a circle?
Well, some clubs do not have the basics in coaching, administration, infrastructure and personnel, but more could be done and it is possible
It is time to make conscious change, time to align with trends and improve the image of the NPFL, one of Africa’s finest leagues
