Wagner: Chance to work on our team spirit

with the venue, with Town’s boss arranging similar training camps during the past two years while at the club.

On the trip Wagner explained: “It is a very good experience which helps to bring the whole group together.

“We will work on our spirit, our team bonding and on the grass as well.

“Hopefully all the players who are away on international duty will also come back healthy and we will use the international break for both recovery and preparation ahead of the next game which is Bournemouth away.

“We will take this international break with a big smile on our faces after the West Bromwich Albion result.

“I think the players have done something extraordinary so far in the first 11 games of the Premier League but now we prepare for the next one.”

Boss Wagner was full of praise for the performances of Town’s newest full-back pairing of Florent Hadergjonaj and Scott Malone in the victory over West Bromwich Albion.

A few eyebrows may have been raised at the teamsheet prior to the WBA game with the duo replacing starting line-up regulars Tommy Smith and Chris Lowe for the John Smith’s Stadium encounter.

Swiss international Hadergjonaj was making his first Premier League start and competitive home debut for the club while Malone also started his first home top-flight game.

But the changes proved to be a tactical masterstroke from the boss with both showing great attacking intent and defensive acumen throughout.

After the game, Wagner admitted both played a huge part in another memorable victory and explained his decisionmaking.
