Not sure I believe this. There have been so many incidents in recent years of players and athletes being caught taking nandrolone I can't believe anyone still risks it, let alone a high profile player in a match where he know he has a 2 in 11 chance of being caught. Can any of you medics supply an alternative explanation for this?

Isnt' this the 2nd or 3rd Lazio player caught? Are the players that thick? Or is the club still giving them nandrolone thinking they won't get caught again?

Most top athletes take "supplements". One year they're OK... next they are on the banned list. No sympathy.... why take anything?
