Wow L.E. Dude, you posted before I even logged in. I was just going to say something along the same lines....that in THEORY EHSSOCCER is correct.
BUT, it isn't theory that is played out each and every game. I think the point some are missing is that EVERYONE wants a pat on the back or a great going! once in awhile....whether it comes from the coach or from another player. It doesn't happen as often as it should for the defensive players. It all should be a team effort and ego left on the bench, blah, blah, blah...but I've seen the egos SHINE in the offense of both the very best teams and the teams that struggle for every victory. I have a feeling more defensive players feel they are over looked in some fashion then you would suspect. Just my opinion though.
