Why would you not take a Red Bull? Stimulants are performance enhancing. There's also nothing wrong with a pizza once a week.

Something with that much sugar and caffeine is not good for your system, and top athletes shouldn't be going anywhere near it. You also have a crash when the effects wear off.

With pizza aye if you made a fresh one yourself the ingredients are fine, Domino's you're having a laugh.

There's a bucket of salt in them for starters, and if I'm paying you 25 grand a week to essentially run its going straight in your contract you never eat shite like that.

When Aberdeen first started using the Uni for sports science stuff they admitted one of the players thought a red bull before a game was healthy 🤣

Jamie Vardy was on 3 cans of red bull before a game during the title winning season. Didn't do him any harm.

Pizza can be good to refuel. Not do great when sat in your house watching Netflix.

Aye and not fuckin Domino's, there are a lot of healthy pizzas you could eat but not that.  Remember pizzagate with Arsenal and Fergie, so pizza can be good, but not from fuckin Domino's.

Caffeine absolutely enhances sporting performance. Who cares if you crash when the match is over? There's a reason it was banned for twenty years. It was only removed from the WADA list as it was difficult to uphold bans for a naturally occurring substance present in so many consumables.

Clubs should be looking to push the limits of anti-doping regulations. If you think it's water in those touchline bottles you're kidding yourself.

Pretty sure Aberdeen players get Domino's for the bus home from away games but they're obviously not in a position to be preparing and cooking their own food at opponents grounds.

What if the match isn't over when you crash? 

Of course its not water, its isotonic sports drinks its not fuckin drugs lol.  Players at the top level can't get away with that now, it just doesn't happen.

The only time it would be possible would be returning from injury when you could go months and months without getting checked, and there are possibilities there, but in general in top level football I would say there is virtually no doping at all goes on.  Its as clean as any sport in the world as its very highly regulated.

That's awfy poor if they do. In this day and age I think that's laughable. I bet Bayern don't do that.

Its isotonic sports drinks like Lucozade or whatever, still not sparkling.

You know what's funny though, its scientifically proven water rehydrates faster than anything else. Its best if its at room temperature too, its absorbed quicker, not cold.

But isotonic drinks have stuff added too.

England had a world cup game postponed by 24 hours a few years ago and it came out that quite a few of the players had issues sleeping the night the game should've gone ahead as they'd taken caffiene pills pre-match.  They had to take sleeping pills to get them off that night.
