has it occurred to some that the purpose of a "warm up" routine is to warm up? ie, not to make long-term improvements to players' inherent level of skill, whicb is something done over many hours/days/weeks/months/years on the training ground

Standing in line to take turns to receive a short pass to take a shot, which most of the players do badly, can hardly be worthwhile, especially if those hours,days,weeks,years are used effectively, as it is not  likely to get the cardiovascular system ticking over or keep the muscles and tendons tuned in. Blimey breath Galvin!
We have lost our way in warm ups lately . . . . Oh for the days of Lewington marching from group to group with a quiet word or a show and tell.

Mohamed Salah scored an amazing goal at the weekend.  What impressed me was how he never looked to see where the goal or goalkeeper were once the ball was with him.  He'd clocked all that before he got the ball and didn't need to check.  Only that enabled his actions to result in a goal.  The best thing is, that can be coached.  When to look and when not to look. How to look.  What to look for. 

It all comes down to hard work and confidence.  And putting in hard work breeds confidence.
