On this week’s episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Crouchy, Chris, and Sids dive

into one of football’s biggest challenges… longevity.


What does it take to keep playing at the highest level for years? Is it down to fitness,

mentality, or just plain luck? The lads break down the secrets behind long careers,

from training regimens to dressing room power struggles. 


They also reveal the telltale

signs that a player’s time is up, plus the legends who somehow defied the clock.


And of course, there are plenty of ridiculous stories along the way. If you think footballers have it easy, this one might change your mind.
