Footballers are a long time retired. He's still supposed to be a professional. He'll have plenty of time to mess around, but he's a father above all. He needs to grow up.
....from what I can see, he’s devoted to his kids but he’s clearly got a few demons in his life. He likes a drink but I also understand he’s first on the training pitch and last off.
He’s not perfect, but often it’s those frailties that make the difference between those who make it and those who don’t. He is what he is, a fabulous footballer with a problem or two.
