if you include the 38 epl matches, plus fa cup and league cup matches and CL as well, you are looking into playing 50-60 matches per season.
besides that, footballers usually train before matches, sometimes twice a day. if they train hard in training, by the time the matches comes, wont they be so tired already?
wont.
they're paid to be able to tahan.
they dont have hard training sessions just before the match or even 1-2 days before the match.
and normally before the match, they do only warm-ups, nothing much that will take away too much energy.
I will tahan for that obscene amount of money!
see how badly villa played against arsenal.
they were off 2 consecutive days before the match.
players are overpaid, not 'overtrained'.
Their body will get used to it.
