Analysis: Blues are not 'Cole Palmer FC'

Why Hurzeler prefers behind-closed-doors pre-season

Pre-season has changed over the years as more clubs are travelling around the world to play friendlies on international soil in front of large capacity crowds. "I use pre-season to build team chemistry and the social bond between them, which is hard to do if you know you are always being observed by the media and supporters," boss Fabian Hurzeler told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club. "I just think you can build the team chemistry better behind closed doors as players can behave more in their natural way if they know there is nothing they get picked up on by the media or others."
