Apart from Arsenal, and I guess you'd say PSG, is there any other club among the top 20, 30 in Europe who are better now than they were five or six years ago?

I don't think there is.

Edouard Mendy seemed to be at the centre of that.

Idrissa Gueye was definitely involved in it.

Pap Chor, the manager, was definitely signaling them off.

And not all of them went.

Some of them went down the tunnel.

Some of them hung around the touchline.

Sadio Mane was the one who was...

I'd say most against it.

And he certainly then was the one who did most to get them back on the pitch.

Now, Claude Loire, who, you know, grand old man of African coaching, he's coached eight African teams, including Senegal, many, many years ago.

I mean, long before Mano was playing.

he said Mane came up to him and said what do I do and so some kind of peace was broken Elhadj Juff not the not Elhadj Malik Juff the West Ham player Elhadj Juff the former Bolton Liverpool Sunderland player he was in the middle of it calming things down I mean if Elhadj Juff is your peacemaker how bonkers is the situation and so eventually they do come back up

I think it's both.

I think it's the culture of the club.

Antonio Conte left the club in, what was it, 2021, maybe later, throwing hand grenades around as he climbed aboard.

Ryanair rushed out of the country to get back to Italy.

Talked about selfish players.

I think he talked about, you know, the issues of leadership.
