What do you need to do?
"It’s getting back in football shape and working hard to catch back up. These guys have been working hard for a long time and I haven’t been on the same page. It’s just trying to catch up with them."

That term is usually used by players who have excellent off season routines, but still have to get over that last hurdle.

As far as I know, Asante has worked very hard with speed coaches over the years to increase his speed which was a problem.

"Football shape" just means there's no substitute for playing.
