From fitness to nutrition and everything inbetween, Luke provides fascinating insight on the different coaching methods of Derby managers, the players whose fitness had to be managed compared to the Rams stars who could 'eat up games', as well as the fittest first teamers he worked with, the changing nature of football injuries, and plenty more.
