THE BIGGER PICTURE
Phil Parkinson has his players doing double training sessions to get them back in shape after their summer break – and a glitzy launch party in Beverly Hills hosted by co-owner Rob McElhenney – as they begin preparations on the grounds of the University of Los Angeles. The burden of the schedule has been made somewhat easier, though, due to the quality of the facilities, Davies says.

WHAT DAVIES SAID
"Two sessions a day and the facilities probably make those sessions a little bit easier when it gets tough because the facilities are brilliant," he told . "Chappell Hill University was one of the highlights of the trip last year, I thought it was a special place. It is UCLA this time around so it will be a similar experience. "It is brilliant and it probably gives you that five per cent more – it is better than running around a cow field I suppose! "You are over in LA, working hard and enjoying your job which is what it is about."
