I also have a feeling we lack structures in place to help foreign players coming into the club settle, feel welcomed and comfortable. It's all well and good giving them big contracts and a hotel room. But it takes much more than that. Especially if they are young and new to the country, city and language. I think we've failed a lot of players over the last few years in this aspect. Not absolving them of any responsibility mind. It's a 2 way street. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
