EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in August 1980, assistant manager Bobby Gould of Chelsea Football Club leads his players through a rigorous pre-season training session at Harlington, London. The image captures the intensity and focus of the players as they follow Gould's instructions, each one fully engaged in the drill at hand. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush green grass, with the sun casting long shadows over the training ground. The players wear their Chelsea training kit, their sweat-drenched shirts bearing testament to the physical demands of the session. Gould, dressed in a tracksuit and holding a whistle, is the picture of concentration as he oversees the exercises, his eyes fixed on the players as they move in unison. Pre-season training is a crucial period for football teams, a time to build fitness, sharpen tactics, and forge team spirit. In this photograph, we see Gould putting his players through their paces, pushing them to their limits and instilling in them the discipline and determination required to succeed on the pitch. The image is a reminder of the dedication and hard work that goes into preparing for the rigors of the football season. Bobby Gould was a key figure at Chelsea during this period, having joined the club as a player in 1967 before going on to become a coach and assistant manager. His influence on the team was significant, and this photograph is a testament to his leadership and commitment to the game. The image also serves as a snapshot of a bygone era in football, a time when the focus was on the sport itself rather than the commercial considerations that dominate the modern game.
