Isco Welcomes Mobile Phone Ban in Spain Camp

Spain midfielder Isco says he welcomes coach Luis Enrique’s ban on mobile phones during team meals and has embraced the new manager’s footballing ideas and team building exercises.
“It’s always good to have a little bit of discipline, not having phones at meals is a good idea to me, these days we are often more focused on machines than speaking with our team mates,” Isco told a news conference on Thursday.
Spain play their first game under former Barcelona coach Luis Enrique on Saturday away to England in their opening match of the UEFA Nations League before hosting Croatia on Tuesday.
Their last outing was their shock elimination from the World Cup to Russia on penalties following a 1-1 draw in the last 16.

Some fans and pundits queried Luis Enrique’s appointment as successor to Julen Lopetegui due to his prickly relationship with the media and his barely concealed distaste for Real Madrid in the past.
