"They are a very good defensive team," Penguins forward Brandon Sutter said. Eddie Jones popped in to visit Southampton on Wednesday in the latest of his trips to pick the brains of coaches from other sports. Here we round up what he learned from each fact-finding mission.Jones on the coachesPep Guardiola (Then at Bayern Munich - Now at Manchester City)I went to Bayern Munich and met Pep Guardiola. It was absolutely fascinating. I watched him taking a training session and it made me embarrassed by my coaching -- he was so bloody brilliant.He has got some of the best players in the world -- Franck Ribery, Arjen Robben and Thomas Muller -- and he just worked them so hard.It was -3C and they came off the field dripping with sweat, they had worked that hard. And they play like 45 games a year. That really reinforced for me how much there is in players.Guus Hiddick (Then at Chelsea)I talked with Guus Hiddink about coaching and managing players and it was the best hour Ive spent. Ive always wanted to meet him because I like the work hes done.We had a cameraman when I coached the Wallabies who had worked with the Socceroos and he told me how he operated. He only had the team for 100 days and he turned them around. Then he did that job with South Korea where he took them from nowhere to come fourth in the World Cup.Orica-BikeExchange?(Tour de France)(When asked what he learnt from spending time with Orica-BikeExchange): Those professional riders with Orica, and particularly those Yates boys. They cycled for nine days, then they have a day off, and the players get together, not the coaches, and they say, Right, this is our recovery for tomorrow, were going to cycle for two hours in the mountains.It was horrendous - I got tired sitting in the car. They started in 35 degrees in Spain and they ended up in Andorra in 10 degrees, and its pouring down with rain. They finish that, they have a quick bite to eat, theyre staying in a three-star hotel, its not flash, and they make the decision on what theyre going to do the next day. Thats being professional.Arsene Wenger (Arsenal)I like the way Wengers teams play. He always plays a really positive style of soccer thats skilful, so theere could be a lot to learn.ddddddddddddHes been in the game 20 years, and the average length of tenure is 18 months or even less - so hes 10 or 12 times above the average. I always try to meet people whove got more knowledge than me -- so theres plenty to meet.Danny Kerry (Team GB Hockey)Weve got the hockey guy coming in in a week or so [Danny Kerry]. Look at what hes done with his hockey side. If you look on face value at the talent in that team compared to the Holland team, its probably not as great, so his ability to create such a dynamic and hardworking team is fascinating. Well learn a lot from him.And what they learned from him:Alan Pardew on JonesIts nice to hear it from somebody from a different genre, a different field, who carries the weight he does. Weve been quite close since he came over here and a lot of the views he has on trying to get more from individual players and the group run parallel with my own.Hes the coach of England rugby and involved in World Cups with other nations, a multicultural personality and someone who is engaging. If they cant take on his comments then we are in trouble.Arsene Wenger on JonesWe have some common memories. His mother is Japanese, he worked in Japan and I worked in Japan so we spoke a little bit about Japan. We have had a similar career, he is Australian and I am French and you have to love countries like Japan and England because he worked in both.Carlos Puel on JonesIts interesting to meet him and to discuss together tactics in rugby, theres a similarity with football. He makes progress and improves because rugby and football and other sports develop all the time with the personality of the players.The games are different all the time and it is important to follow other perceptions of the sport. It is natural to accept visitors of different sports, different trainers. It is always interesting to share different ideas of football and other sports.I hope what we discussed will help in the match but we will see. ' ' '
