Hi Chris,
Here's a drill for you to start. Whilst this drill involves no talking between players, its goal is to emphasise the importance of communication during a game and to instil it's importance into your players. It's also great to get your players playing with their head up and scanning to understand visual cues whilst playing.
Hope this helps.

Communication Drill
DESCRIPTION
Set up your team in a small sided game on a pitch running from the edge of the penalty area to the half-way line. Play normal rules except for the fact that during the drill, players are not allowed to talk during the game. Players cannot call for the ball, tell a player where to go or where they want the ball passed to. This really emphasises the importance of communication. If a player does speak, then a free-kick is given to the opposite team.
