The next two weeks passed quickly for Jerry. True to his word, Tom made them go through torturous training the day after Sam oversaw the rondo session. It wasn't just a one-time ordeal either—every day since then had been intense, filled with grueling drills, tactical breakdowns, and fitness work that left them aching. Soon, they found themselves missing Sam's rondo, something none of them thought would happen.
But Tom wasn't heartless. He understood the importance of recovery just as much as training. So, the day before their match against Liverpool, he gave them time off. A crucial decision. He needed his players fresh, both mentally and physically. This was a game they could not afford to lose, a fixture that carried more weight than just three points. It was about pride, about proving themselves at this critical stage of the season.
