Gabriele Marcotti Column

A few years ago I went to see Sven Goran Eriksson, who at the time was the England national team coach. He showed me a power point presentation he had prepared, illustrating how countries in which there is no midseason break tend to underperform internationally. He was going to use it to persuade the English powers-that-be to introduce a winter break around the turn of the year (as is customary in most European leagues).
