With only three weeks to go until the football league season begins afresh, time is of the essence for clubs to make their final tweaks and preparations. Relatively speaking the beginning of a new season acts as a clean slate for each and every club, regardless of if they have suffered relegation, promotion or mid-table mediocrity in their previous season.
In that way football, and all sports are an endless cycle of trying to achieve. Of course those teams that win trophies, or individuals that set personal records will be noted down in the sands of time of sporting history. With sport, though there are the peaks and pinnacles the difficulty lies more in trying to match and repeat such feats, rather than getting there in the first place. For those for who have this positive 'problem' the only inevitable worry is that there will be a time when being the best is no longer a certainty. Instead there is the unavoidable decline that comes with competing in professional sports.
