Listening to an old pro. footballer on the radio a couple of weeks ago saying he was never injured in his whole career. He said years ago footballers didn't have the injury problems footballers of all clubs have today. It is surprising as most clubs have sports scientist, training programs and all the paraphernalia surrounding layers fitness, he said. Has he got a point?
Not really, it depends what era you’re talking about. The game is so much faster nowadays and the fixtures are so congested.
Long gone are the days of having a pint at half time and kicking the shit out of each other for 90 minutes. Go back to the 80’s and the worlds best player is a fat cocaine addict.
