For those of you that are military, do you think the training would be more or less intense in the military compared to premier League football
It's different.For those of you that are military, do you think the training would be more or less intense in the military compared to premier League football
Not sure there's many training drills down Hotspur way, which sees players crawling through mud and then stabbing a dummy with a bayonet.For those of you that are military, do you think the training would be more or less intense in the military compared to premier League football

None of which is to say that Son will expect to have a diluted few weeks or that what he is about to embark on will be straightforward when he begins his service on the island of Jeju on April 20.
While it is only training, rather than the full service that can mean front-line service patrolling the demilitarised zone, Son will be sharing a room with up to 15 others and will have minimal contact with the outside world.
Everything will be done in groups — he won’t even be allowed to head to the men’s room on his own. Son will also need to shave his head beforehand — not doing so will see him shaved at the camp.
Broadly, his three weeks of training with the marines (the fact he is with the marines rather than army means his training is three weeks instead of four) will be broken down as follows: The first week focuses on mental training, the second week will train him basics like how units should walk, run and move together, how to operate a gun, and the third week will centre on the marches, the longest of which will be 30 kilometres with a 25kg bag and a gun weighing around 10kg.
The trainees are also exposed to tear gas without their masks on to test their durability and resilience. Previously they were made to sing in order to force them to open their mouths and add extra intensity to the operation, but the Korean military have been moving away from this exercise.
Sounds pretty intense.

[단독] 손흥민, 귀신잡는 해병 된다···20일 제주 훈련소 입소

Korean national soccer team ace Son Heung-min (28, Tottenham Hotspur) will be reborn as a "'Ghost buster' Marines" It has been confirmed that the Marine Corps is planning to conduct basic military exercises based on military service benefits.
"The reason Son Heung-min returned to Korea on March 28 is to take advantage of the suspension period of the Premier League to receive basic military training," a source from the soccer community said. "He will join the Marine Corps on Aprli 20 and undergo military training for three weeks. The service area is likely to be Jeju Island," he said.

The reason Son chose the Marine Corps, which is known for its high training intensity, is to provide an opportunity for "a serious war" inside and outside. The player himself is said to be determined to wake up again by undergoing surgery and rehabilitation due to arm injuries through intense physical and mental training. On the other hand, it is also understood that it wants to give a healthy impetus to the social atmosphere that has subsided due to the new coronavirus infection (Covid19).
It is also advantageous on a schedule. Unlike the usual four-week basic military training at an Army training center, the Marine Corps can wrap up with a three-week training. Instead of 4 weeks, now he only has to do 3 weeks because it is the Marine Corps (famously known for its intense training).
...
Jeju Island had nine Corona19 cumulative confirmed cases as of Tuesday, the smallest virus-free zone among 18 metropolitan and provincial governments in the country. The 9th Brigade of the Marine Corps, founded in 2015, is stationed in charge of the ground defense and coast guard on Jeju Island.

Sounds quite good fun to me.
Wheeeeyyyy!Now I know Aurier's had a poor season, but that seems just a little harsh...
The greatest Premier League goal of all time - as voted by fans - revealed
Which strike did you select as your favourite? Heres how you voted...www.skysports.com
Son's goal against Burnley voted the best Premier League goal of all time - bloody hell!
It was really special. I think something it its favour was how unique it was - there were plenty of long-distance screamers, insane techniques, but no others where someone managed to run the entire length of the pitch and beat countless opponents to score.wtf it wasn't that good lol

Can only beat what's in front of you though. ?I'm looking more at the Burnley defence, the defending was a bit poor
