Would like to know what 'the wolves way' is mind!
“Without discipline you have nothing. Football is a watered-down version of the army and in the army they make you do things you don’t want and you have to obey orders.
“The overall thinking of it is that when we go into battle - when it really matters - and you get instructions, you comply with the instructions you are given.
“You are all together as a group. And you get used to obeying instructions and respecting authority. It keeps everybody together on the same sheet.
“If you go into war and two soldiers do their own thing, they get the rest killed.
“Obviously we are not in the army but there have to be rules in place.
“They include not being late for training, not leaving your training kit on the floor, being in for treatment on time, living your life properly, not going away from here into McDonald’s. Eating like an athlete.
“I don’t think Jessica Ennis stops off at McDonald’s on the way home, I don’t think so looking at her.
“That’s discipline - to be able to say ‘No’ to things that don’t make you play very well.
“You need to respect your team-mates and respect authority. If the manager tells you to do something, do it!
“Most footballers like discipline. They like to know where the line is. And they don’t like to see other people not adhering to it.”
