Shearer going on about “elite athletes” standing around. Can this really be causing injury? Alan did a fair bit of standing around in his later career so maybe he’s across this.

Could see Grealish do his hamstring before the goal/VAR. on around 15 minutes he ran to put a cross in and stayed there afterwards holding it and grimacing
How long do they stand around while the champions league music is playing, and all the other bollocks before kick off? He's talking shite as usual. Nothing stopping them moving around a bit during a break in play.
To be fair, sudden changes in velocity is likely very important in the etiology of muscle injuries. Probably isn’t a good idea to try to prevent this by sprinting around for 90 minutes rather than when necessary.
