Director of Football Praises and Motivates Players

The Ball Boyz Director of Football, Thomas Worden has expressed his opinions on the first half of the season. "Although the results are yet to be shown on the pitch, I am noticing that the football that we are playing is much more attractive and fluent. I also have to notice the great attitude inside the changing room, and the leadership and determination on the pitch. We are starting to co-operate and act like a team. Sure there are some parts that still need a bit of polishing, but all in all I think we are becoming a strong group."

"As for the football, I have to congratulate every single player who has featured for us in 2011, and even if they are not satisfied with the way they have played, I believe that they have made an impact on the group. I try to motivate them to give 100% on the pitch, and even if results are not showing immediately, they must keep believing in themselves until they can improve. I will never give up on those lads, I try and consider my lads all equal. Sure, the best players must be played, but I try to give everyone a chance, and I am satisfied with the performance of every one of our players up until now. I also encourage them to do even better in the new year and to continue to be incredible footballers."

"I also have to praise every single Ball Boy for what they have done during this first half of the season, and things can only get better in 2012. I believe that this lot can start showing some results in the new year because they are a very good group. I wouldn't trade my lads for any other team in the world, not even Barcelona. And that is how much I believe that this team can succeed, and I hope that results will start to show on the field as well as off."
