Arsenal beat us and city within a week. Very impressive. Guess they gonna be a dark horse next season.
Our team played intense football two consecutive season. Last season we fought till the last match. We reached final and won UCL in highly dramatic fashion. This season we won EPL with many remaining games yet to be played.
For me, the team is allowed to take their foot off the gas a bit. As much as we want the team to play at the highest level all games, the motivation is just not the same when the ultimate prize already won. Only highly competitive players like Suarez, hendo, Stevie G will do that 😄 without needing any motivation hahaha. 100 points, invincible all those are nice to have. But everybody knows what the ultimate prize is.
I imagine the only player that still has real genuine motivation is only Salah.
So when a player loose focus a bit, made silly mistake I'm not surprised. To me, they have nothing to prove. They already proven themselves at the highest competition, under highest pressure.
The taste of defeat in last season, was the real motivation for the team to wrap up EPL soon as possible.
So unleash the youngsters... Let them play 😄😉
