Unveiling Merlin Röhl: The Everton Star’s Surprising Passions Beyond Football
He’s done different vision exercises, training the muscle, since his early days at Ingolstadt and Freiburg. “It’s something I really believe in. It’s massive. Quite a few clubs have a trainer who teaches you.” They taught him certain routines. “A lot, yes. I have a stick with numbers on it.” He focuses on each number in turn to strengthen his field of vision. “Your eye needs to go from far to very near. I also do a lot of eye switches. I have a metronome. It goes 100 beats per minute, and then your eyes switch like this (Rohl moves his eyes quickly left to right, right to left). It’s training a muscle. If you have fast eyes, you can track the ball faster and then switch faster to the player where you want to play the ball.”
