Nice to see he takes his career seriously, even in his downtime.

Contrast that with Grealish…..
Why do people have an issue with Grealish going on holiday and having a few too many beers in the off season?

Almost every player does this, it doesn't mean they dont put in 100% when pre season starts. We have a very weird obsession with bring down young successful sports people in this country.

I don't have an issue as such, it is just that a top athlete shouldn't be consuming that much alcohol end of. It takes about 30-40 days for a body to recover from that amount of alcohol - you and I wouldn't notice it, but a top athlete would in performance.

There is also IMO a correct way of conducting yourself in public. Yes I am old now to think like this :)

We have no idea how much alcohol he has had but my point is it isn't just him yet he is the only one in the papers. Pretty much every player apart from the likes of Ronaldo will have been up to the same.

I just dont think a week away in vegas is going to impact his season at all.

It's the same as a few years back when everyone was going mad over some players seen with balloons making out they were the worst people in the world.

Think sometimes people forget that footballers aren't robots and will have vices the same as the majority of the population, whatever they may be.

They also work in an extremely high pressure and stressful environment and get limited opportunities to relax in this way so I don't blame them for making the most of it.
