' ... It's going to be tough. I'm not ready yet' marc_strydom

Many Premiership coaches have said that with no crucial friendlies for players to stretch out in semi-competitive conditions‚ they believe their first two to three league games have to be effective warm-ups.

"And we've seen it with La Liga‚ the Bundesliga and the EPL. A lot of top players have been missing form certain games. It's affected a lot of clubs‚ especially those at the bottom‚ which is where we are in the PSL. "And it's just going to be who can survive the fittest in the 90 minutes‚ and who wants it most to get to the final of the Nedbank Cup.

The lockdown that followed the initial suspension of PSL football in March 16 saw players initially confined to their homes. From level four they could train individually on the street. " ... Yesterday should be day one of the six-week preparation. We've actually started at week three. We've done a week's training with three-quarters of a squad‚ then a week with small groups of five‚ and then this week we've actually started some small non-contact games.
