Why do the english always underachieve in Euros/WC if they're doping?
Have a look at Arsene Wenger's views on football and doping. Also look at Operation Puerto which resulted in blood bags from over 200 athletes being seized from a Spanish clinic. Dr Fuentes admitted that athletes from football, tennis, cycling, athletics and boxing were involved but only cyclists have been named. Dr Fuentes admits that famous names are involved and that he has helped one well known team prepare for the Champions League. French newspaper Le Monde claims to have seen documents showing Dr Fuentes' "help" for Barcelona and Real Madrid. 10 years after the original scandal blew up a Spanish judge ordered the blood bags to be destroyed so we will never know for sure to whom the blood belonged. Unless of course DR Fuentes plays his ace and writes a book disclosing all. |

perhaps the biggest scandal in sport is the use of TUEs
remember when Neymar came to Barcelona from Brazil they immediately declared him anaemic and had to boost his red blood cell count. As if they don't have doctors in Brazil. Brailsford and SKY have clearly perfect their "training strategies" noone really cares though everyone's making too much money - including the "see no evil" media |

Good post A_T.
From the media you would think that it was only cycling and athletics that had a drug/TUE problem. Both these sports probably test more than any of the others and acknowledge the problem. You'd have to be totally naive to believe that with the enormous amounts of money to be earned and generated in football no teams or players would look for a little chemical assistance. Quite strange as well that the "see no evil media" have not cottoned on to the fact that almost half of those who have been suspended by UKAD are from one sport namely rugby. In the USA drug abuse is a huge problem in American Football but here despite the obvious evidence they seem to keep it under the radar. |

Rugby Union is unrecognisable from the sport 25 years ago. The backs are now built like the old wing-forwards with the added ability to run like olympic sprinters. The likes of Phillipe Sella, JPR Williams, Barry John wouldn't have a hope in today's game. No doubt it's all down to modern training techniques.
