00:00Too many games, it's clear. Too many competitions for the top players.
00:05They are overloaded, and this is not good for football.
00:09In the end of the day it's maybe good for commercial, but there is a limit.
00:16Players are getting injured, it's almost unaffordable,
00:22players getting injured because of the overload from so many games.
00:27A big team that plays a lot of matches,
00:32they are not able to play this much of the games.
00:38You see one or two players who played up to 70 and have been fit the whole season.
00:45So I don't really think there is yet, or there will be eventually,
00:51something which you can prepare for this.
00:57It's getting more every season, and every season you see more and more injuries.
01:04So I think eventually, if you see this all together, it's too much.
