Jack, frankly, has me worried. He's overdoing it. For a fit , healthy young athlete , getting mangled after winning a major trophy/ies is fine. Well played , son, enjoy your night out/morning after/following lunchtime.
But getting mangled multiple times in the 3-4 ensuing weeks is not good , and if he keeps it up, he won't be all that fit , healthy & young for very much longer. Best, Gazza, Rooney, numerous others have all gone down that path, thinking their talent alone would keep them at the top. The rest of the squad had a party too, but we haven't sees Ruben etc. hanging around in clubs that las few weeks.
HE's had a good-ish season, a 6 or 7 out of 10 season , not a stellar, best-player-on-the-planet season. This coming season he needs , again, to front up and improve further on last season, not rest on his laurels with a bottle of Stolly in his hand.
I hope for his sake, Pep's and ours that he's in damn good condition when he presents for pre-season. No excuses.
