Footballers in interviews may come across as lacking intelligence, but you can tell from any coverage of them just being themselves that they are very different people from what you might see when a microphone is shoved in their face.
Athletes at this Olympics, no matter what they come out with in their interviews, know that they have got everyone's backing.
Footballers are always going to come across more guarded as they know that anything they might say that could be slightly misinterpreted will be ripped to shreds by the media.
If someone had reported a load of bollocks about you and your colleagues for years on end and made a living out of trying to expose your weaknesses, would you be that most fluid and participating person to speak to?
