Roberto and David Platt take a stroll in Lisbon

"Stefan hasn't got the stance quite right ... Vincent, can you have a word?"

Morning meeting for the boss and his goalkeepers

Roberto gets the short straw in training, he's marking Edin Dzeko

OK guys, this is the ball. Love it, caress it, it's your best friend ...

Roberto in the zone, boss of all he surveys at training

"It's two euros, it should be easy enough to see ... everybody, keep looking"

"OK, now I pick my five-a-side team ... Aleks, where are you going?"

"Hey, it's sunny but we're in Manchester ... how about that?"

Ah Lisbon's lawns, and a chance to look cool in shades. Platty declines ...

"No, this zip's definitely stuck, one of you will have to help me ..."
