Been watching the Olympics and was struck by the determination and energy that our team showed. Such as the Brownlee brothers who had to swim in the sea, cycle and run just for a medal and Laura Trott in her event who spewed up after her event with the effort it took.
I have seen footballers train and many just seem to do a lot of jogging and not intense workouts. I think that footballers could be fitter. Many of our national team earn 6 figures a WEEK and that is a problem because win. lose or draw they are rolling in it, they think they are the bee.s knees but are not as the loss in the Euro's against Iceland showed.
They could also learn from our womens hockey team how to have the balls to win penalties.
