Sadly I don't think he does this time.
I think he has lost his marbles.
On a medical level I can trace the beginnings of the issue back to 3-4 summers ago when he allowed Matthieu Flamini to train with us as he was unemployed, then one day he thought that he could save himself a few million by letting him hang around for a year.
Not the thought process of a top level manager, or a sane one.
