Because he's one of your stars and he's not delivering.

There's other players who are not delivering either.

So I thought it was a very good message.

And I thought it was interesting that he came...

to talk before this game.

OK, I know it's Monaco, I know there's a narrative obviously there, his former club is French, blah, blah, blah, all of that.

But also in moments of crisis like this current one, because this could potentially be the worst week in Florentino Perez's second time as the president of the club, yeah, he's your best player, he's your leader here, coming and trying to calm everything down.

No, I don't think so.

Certainly, I've not been told.

I don't think that I'd come out.

I think it's probably still too soon to really hear.

We need to hear from Xabi himself on his side and what he could say and how far could he go down into the, like, I was not able to implement my ideas or I didn't feel the dressing room was receptive to what I was saying or I had issues with some of the individuals and the egos.

All of that, we don't know yet.

Xabi hasn't spoken.

For the players...

We can be based on what they said on social media, which is not always the truth.

As we know, some of them have to say what they said on social media.

So we probably need a bit more time to find out exactly what kind of relationship there was between Xabi and the dressing room.

If the players were really happy for him to go, if they were not happy.

All of that, we still don't know.
