” Mental preparation is one of most important things in professional sport. I think to some extent it has to be intrinsic. My life for the past 10 years is completely dedicated to football so it’s my priority every day. In my case, I like to get 8-9 hours of sleep every night,  wake up early and prepare for training.  It is very important to me that I train well during the week as to be ready for the game. In this way, I know I have done what is needed.  I like to have everything under control and be ready for any situation that may arise. ” Boris Sekulic – Chicago Fire F.C
