chartpolski 27,520 Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) Just been reading Benitez's excuse for getting beat; his players were "exhausted" after playing so many matches over Xmas, (though I'm sure QPR have played the same amount) !! Pardew also claims Newcastles disasterous form is due to playing a few extra games in the Europa League !! These "professional athletes" can't play two, 90 minute games of football a week !!!! Pro tennis players some times play 3, 4, 5 matches in a tournament, some matches lasting over 4 hours , and they are running almost all the time, whereas football players stand around a fair bit when off the ball, in their 90 minutes; yet you rarely hear a tennis players saying they lost because they played to many matches ! Cheers. Edited January 3, 2013 by chartpolski Quote Link to post Share on other sites
