ADELAIDE United boss Marco Kurz introducing double daily training sessions is just the beginning of the revolution, with the German confident he can increase training loads by 100 per cent.

Kurz believes United can soon train four times daily.

But at this point — after a little more than three months in charge — he says most of his players are not ready for the big increase.

If I did this now I would kill the players and kill the team but I think we’re on the right path, we’re at a good level.

“I cannot train at the same level (here), for example in Germany I trained four times per day before breakfast, before and after lunch and after dinner,’’ Kurz said before United takes on Wellington Phoenix on Sunday away to kick off its 13th A-League season.

“If I did this now I would kill the players and kill the team. But I think we’re on the right path, we’re at a good level.

“They know they can run more than their opponents in this moment.

“I think for a successful game you must be fit.

“I know in my career when I wasn’t fit, I lost matches and that’s the basics and it can be a part of a successful season.”

There’s also a very good chance Kurz won’t declare he is “so satisfied” unless he is or tell the masses his Reds “played good’ if they haven’t.

Those two phrases were said many times during the reigns of Josep Gombau and Guillermo Amor at United.

The German mentor is a lot like former boss John Kosmina when it comes to critiquing and, like Kossie, he will never throw his men under a bus.

“I think my training in Australia is not the same as in Germany - it’s lower,’’ Kurz said.

“I think we must develop this. I cannot train at the same level - it’s not good for the players - but they have adapted well, they like it because they’re fitter.”

But Kurz is grateful Reds staff, fans and the SA public have made the German and his partner Tammy feel welcome in his first coaching job abroad.

Kurz also feels he is closer to mastering English.

“For me it’s a big first step, but my partner (Tammy) and I feel comfortable in Adelaide,’’ he said. “The people are very nice and helpful, and I enjoy it.

“I must improve in some things in the job, but it’s a good challenge for me.”
