It is not just about the covered distance. What matters more is the intensity of running. Teams like City, Chelsea, Liverpool or Bayern look way more active in that regard. If your pressing works better, you are not so prone to counter-attacks and therefore you don't have to track back as much per 90min.
Yeah mate, but that ain't changing for Busquets at his age or for Pique. You can't improve that by putting them on extra training.
The KMs run was just another subject that many 'managers' in here thought we were lacking in.
So better manager and better players. So we run smarter, like in the Pep era, when most of the running was done by the ball.
