He just looks like he doesn't care about football anymore. He's lost his love for the game

A few players, after leaving a Pep managed side, have appeared (or said) to have lost their passion for football (whatever level they had, anyway; we have to remember for us it is a dream, for them it has been an all encompassing pursuit that, for many, has required major sacrifice and even suffering at times).

I think it is a case of eventually hating the constant demands to be better, the pressure to perform at the highest level just to play, and wanting to go elsewhere to feel more free and hopefully enjoy yourself more, only to realise that playing for Pep was the peak of your career (both in club achievement and in personal performance), that you’ll likely never experience that level of success again, and often wishing you could go back, but knowing you can’t.

As they say, you can never go home again.
 
This will end up at least 5 nil. Should be that now, but for Arsenal's incompetence.
 
One of the things I always find crazy is how often Azpilicueta gets mentioned in the conversation for best right backs in Premier League history.

He was solid enough for a few years but that was a long, long time ago. Sort of like Zabaleta without the longevity and consistency.

For years he's not really offered anything other than being a bit of a shithouse. He's got nothing when he's on the ball, he's never been athletic and his one on one defending hasn't been worth shit for a long time.
