no knock on gattuso, but imagine how much more he would have to run if teammates like pirlo weren't trying to call for foul and create dead ball situations.

Robinho and Brad Friedel. cant remember ever seeing them miss a game, especially for national team for injuries

has Latapy ever been injured out for any long stretch, his lack playin time in last couple yrs can be put down to age and low fitness...... due in part to aging anyways

Disgruntled_Trini · « **Reply #17 on:** June 23, 2009, 07:51:11 AM »

Lampard and Gerrard.

I remember the season the season after Liverpool win the CL, Gerrard play 60 plus games.

spideybuff · « **Reply #18 on:** June 23, 2009, 08:23:48 AM »

Tevez...always running non-stop and is only cause he getting bench he does slow down, otherwise he still running non-stop and is end of season.

Gerard forever injured. He's definitely NOT an iron man.

I can't believe nobody has mentioned Cristiano Ronaldo- that guy is rarely ever injured and wants to play every minute of every game, he gets knocked about from opposing players every game and he doesn't get hurt, don't mind he falls down a bit easily to say the least, but most players are like that nowadays, they got no problem with blatantly lying and behaving underhanded, a shame really.
