Thanks for re-iterating that point, because I didn't get it the first time.
Obviously you don't have to be Einstein to kick a football - no shark.
I would expect though that the captain of your country should have a brain cell to rub against another brain cell and not make such a tit of himself after the match.
Also you are confusing education with intellect. I just wish that giving footballers a better more rounded education would make them better individuals and able to cope with setbacks. This is something that is missing with England players.
