As the Premiership and Europe's other top leagues try desperately to find ways to cut down on the game's greatest modern curse, a report from FIFA's chief medical officer has revealed a cheating culture at the highest level of the game.

"Fifty-eight per cent of the players who were treated on the pitch during the 2006 World Cup eventually turned out not to be injured," confirmed FIFA.
