Regarding this Trent thing and the fact he did his whole speech in Spanish
I don't care
He gave us so many great memories and I'm forever grateful for that
I believe imo he spoke with Macca ( who is loved in Madrid ) and he gave him some great advice like you have to learn the language and embrace your self in to the Madrid culture

If you don't you won't be appreciated or loved,.look at Bale and what he did for the club winning things and they couldn't care less about him

So what he decided as soon as Bellingham joined he would do the same and started learning Spanish

Football works both ways when it comes to loyalty. For club and player
In this instance it worked out better for the player instead of the club
Because as soon as a club no longer wants you, there is no loyalty from the club no matter what you have done for the club

It didn't have to end. They wanted it to.

The sport is ruthless. He still has some juice left but that hamstring injury robbed him of a lot of his striking ability and a lot of those passes he used to make weren't coming off anymore.

In a previous era he'd still be elite at his age, but the style of football today plus how many games the players are required to play, alot of bodies are going to break down in their early 30s, especially guys who play midfield.

I hope he's able to do well with Napoli. League is alot slower so he should hold up better.
