Soccer Coaching International is a great resource I have personally used for the last couple of years. Its editorial features that have been compiled from around the world make compelling reading and have created many interesting debates amongst the coaches I work with. The website has been an invaluable tool for planning, preparation and communication. Training sessions can be compiled by selecting drills from the library or composing your own.

Barca seal Roman move

Barcelona have confirmed the signing of Joan Angel Roman from Manchester City.

The 19-year-old midfielder joined City three years ago when they paid Espanyol £1million for his services.

However, Roman has failed to break into the first team and he has now opted for a switch back to his native Catalunya.

Sky Sports revealed earlier this week that talks were at an advanced stage and now Barcelona have confirmed the deal.

Stronger

The teenager has signed a three-year deal at Camp Nou and will start the season with Barca's B side.

"Being in England for three years has helped me to mature a lot and to become physically stronger," said Roman.

"I'm raring to start and start learning. When I heard Barca were interested in me, that was my priority.

"I can assure you that I'll work hard and give everything I can out on the pitch."
