See the match?
Never seen this before. Michael Owen talks about his later years struggling with a hamstring injury.
He admits to putting himself in disadvantageous positions on the field so that he wouldn't have to make the kind of run that would put him at risk of injury.
Makes you wonder how each of these players, who want to keep on making a good living, have to adapt or, dare I say, "fake it" somewhat.
That said, as he notes, surgery has come on leaps and bounds in the last few decades - so there are players who are able to bounce back.
The meat of it starts at 4:42 and lasts a couple of minutes. Worth a watch.
