This is the arguement that should be made. Agreed.Soccer is comprised of 4 different types of travelling: walk, jog, run, sprint. In an average game, the average player will walk 15%, jog 40%, run 30% and sprint 15%. This means that during an average game, the average player walks/jogs for more than half the game. Rather pedestrian until you realize the difference in class is usually determined in the 15% sprint time. Soccer is like any other pro sport (or any level for that matter, although the difference in pro is what we use to determine good from great in its most viable state)--it is a game of inches...
