Top Footballers in day-off watching football and not having sex-orgy disgrace

Two top premier league football were mired in disgrace last night after it was revealed that they had a quiet night of watching a football match.

The two shamed Arsenal stars, Cesc Fabregas and Alexandr Hleb, blatantly disregarded manager Arsene Wenger by taking the stipulated days off. They then didn't insult airline passengers on a flight to Barcelona, ignored all decency by not getting drunk and pissing in fountains. The final insult was when they didn't get thrown out of their hotel, get in a fight in a nightclub, snort cocaine off a postitute's tits or video themselves in a sex orgy with spanish party girls.

"They are a disgrace to English Football. This is just another case of foreign footballers coming in and changing everything", oinked a reporter before going on to accuse Alex Hleb of not cheating on his wife.

From what i hear from interviews with players it is not an enjoyable experience watching your own team play, you're always thinking of what you would do if you were on the pitch, it's even worse if things aren't going well, I can understand why they would want to go to another game.

Football is a game which is mentally taxing, Wenger may even have ordered them not to go to the slavia game so that they could have an actual break as opposed to a busman's holiday.

I think it says something that we have players that enjoy the game so much that they use their time off to go and watch a football match. Le Boss watches a shitload of football in his spare time, does it come as any great surprise that players he has chosen do the same?

He's a Barca fan and a Catalan. He had a couple of days off so he went home and watched the team he has supported all his life, maybe met up with some mates, got pissed and came back. Its no big deal imo.

He maybe a Barca fan but tbh why would he not go and watch the club he wants to stay with "all his life" actually its ok as long as he does not do so every week I guess if I was playing for Barca I would want to go and watch Arsenal so its ok.

But the thing is though, were all the players offered time off? I remember many a time when Henry was allowed a break but players who had played more games were not, what must that do to team spirit?
