Message: [QUOTE="arrow2arinzesknee, post: 208198, member: 1876"] They have done studies and show the average player runs over 5 miles a game, for 90 minutes, with little to no break. I know you are giving them credit on endurance, but the technical skill involved at these higher levels of soccer is so ridiculous, and the athletes themselves are tremendous. Just because Landon Donovan can't do a 360 dunk doesn't make him less athletic. The mold for a soccer player isn't what it is for other sports, but that doesn't mean they aren't similar if not better athletes. [/QUOTE]
