Top players do not get breaks. Jesus will probably get more breaks than he normally would because we will be able to rotate him out for the EL, but in a CL team he'll probably be playing twice a week. Salah plays over 4000 mins each season for example.
That's an absolutely insane take. When you hit the gym and see the guy next to you benching 400lbs do you think "If I want to be in great form I need to do that too"? 😆
Just because Salah as a complete outlier can do it doesn't mean everyone else is able to do it too. Can only think of Lewandowski and Griezmann who play as many minutes as him without getting injured. He's also most likely cycling like the rest of Liverpool's squad.
Jesus should absolutely be given breaks, he's had a bunch of injuries of all kinds in the past already and that was when he was rotated often. Playing him non-stop like a "top player" only means we'll lose him for months.
