Daniel Podence recalls training drills under José Luis Mendilibar

Daniel Podence has shared a social media post reflecting on his time at Olympiacos, specifically referencing former coach José Luis Mendilibar and goalkeeper Konstantinos Zolakis.

Podence described a training drill where a coach would force players to perform forward rolls if they missed a goal or made a decision the coach disliked, regardless of the player's age. He illustrated this by recounting an instance where a goalkeeper lost the ball after a poor pass and was required to perform ten forward rolls mid-drill.

Through his description, Podence pointed to Zolakis, noting that the goalkeeper is the ‘only goalkeeper in the Premier League who has not conceded a goal after three matches’.
