People that do not follow the sport or have played the sport fail to acknowledge just how tough being a footballer is. The physical and physiological demands are extreme. Players train for the majority of the day and these training sessions are grueling. Such sessions are everyday and this is done for the majority of the year. There is little time for vacations in this line of work.
Players tend to get to practice early and do weights, conditions, etc. then they eat and take a breather before heading out to training session that last for god knows how many hours. After that a player is so exhausted that he goes home and eats before passing out. Then the process will be repeated over and over. In the bigger leagues, training is hardcore and more demanding then those of lesser leagues. There is a reason why the clubs pay the players so much money and in return they expect greatness.
