Celtic's Callum McGregor played the most number of minutes in world football last season.
But exhaustion was never an issue.
The midfielder racked up an astonishing 5,894, equating to 69 games in all competitions.
Celtic star Callum McGregor tops 'most minutes played' list in world football for last season
He beat out the likes of Eden Hazard, Ajax's Daley Blind and Benfica's Ruben Dias.
Never one to complain, McGregor actually reckons the game time has made him fitter.
That's why he never wants to sit on the bench and watch his teammates win, lose or draw without him.
And this Sunday's Betfred Cup final is no different. Nor was Wednesday evening's dramatic victory over Hamilton.
McGregor simply wants to play.
"I feel good," the playmaker said.
"The more games I play, I feel I’m getting fitter.
"The more experience you can get on the pitch always helps you.
"I feel fresh, I feel hungry and I’m looking forward to the game."
