Makes you wonder where footy is heading really. Top article. This statement is an eye opener of today's saturated physical and psychological programs...does it make you find the ball and kick it well?

Nowadays the life of a player is more sterile. Players are much better paid and much more professional. They train and do weights but also take part in nutrition seminars, myotherapy, pilates, bikram yoga, osteopathy, naturopathy, dry needling, acupuncture, kinesiology, traditional yoga, stress management, leadership seminars and a whole lot more.

All this makes for better prepared and disciplined athletes, but does it enhance the genuine love for the game and club?

In my opinion, it does not.
