Yes, i forgot about the injuries But before that, how do they get tired to begin with? :undecide: Certainly 2 matches a week is something a professional athlete can do without a problem.
And even though i agree mid-table Italian teams make life hard for the top teams, more than any other league, surely the Football played in those 3 countries i mentioned is usually more based around speed and technicality almost ping-pong like and they seem to run much more than teams in Serie A.
Yet they seem to always play the same line up week in, week out. (Actually we've been doing that lately but i fear it's more because of injuries before anything else). Don't know, even if they don't work more than we do, how come you never seen them having a player benched because he's 'tired'? There are exceptions like resting a key player after a good 5 to 10 matches before an important one but still...

But most top sides do rotate fairly often.
There are exceptions (and sooner or later they tend to suffer for it), but I don't think there are all that many teams out there who expect a player to play at a rate of two games per week for very long before they are given a rest.
The English teams are certainly inclined to rotate if they have a squad that allows it.
