These guys leave school at a young age, which is significant, but much more significant is that at that same young age, they enter a world where absolute obedience and deference to authority figures is expected, asking questions (except specific football ones) is discouraged, and anything other than total conformity to what is expected of a young footballer makes you a target in the dressing room. So IMO it's not so much that footballers are thick; they're just permanently 16 years old in terms of development. |
