Philadelphia Union head coach Jim Curtin held his weekly press availability on Wednesday afternoon. Here are a few takeaways from the chat with the press.
Back on grass, ramping up the fitness
After training holding individual and small groups over the last few weeks on the outdoor, turf fields at the 76ers Fieldhouse in Wilmington, Delaware, Curtin noted that the club has moved to the home of the Kirkwood Soccer Cub where homegrown Anthony Fontana played in his youth days. With the team training on grass, the attention has turned from building fitness to developing stamina as the club prepares for the MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando.
