And I think in the way the world is set up, even though we all don't want to be that person, it is very difficult not just to get drawn in with those kind of cynical, off-the-cuff comments.
If someone puts themselves out there, right, and particularly when you're operating in this elite level and your every movement is now basically on social media, it's recorded.

The entire, every moment, someone like Mikel Arteta today, he's got people with cameras in his face.
Like he's meant to just carry on as if that's normal.
And it's not normal.
The scrutiny is huge.
And I'm not really answering the question there.
But I mean, in the 70s and 80s, they didn't have that level, right?
