This, 100%. Players decline as they age and it would take a real piece of shit to turn on a club icon for growing old. It& #39;s not age that& #39;s ruining Pique though, it& #39;s his own arrogant lack of focus, treating football at the highest level like it& #39;s a part time job. https://twitter.com/alex07fcb/status/1198320697463975936">https://twitter.com/alex07fcb...

He has decades of time after football ends for him in which he can commit to tennis, media and all the other stuff that he wants to be into. But no, he absolutely has to do it now, all while commanding a first team slot at one of the world& #39;s biggest clubs and being paid a fortune

It& #39;s weird. Pique spent a lot of his career being portrayed as an on-pitch clown when he was actually the best centre back in the world, yet at the end of his career he& #39;s actually become an off-pitch clown while being wretched on the pitch too.

And honestly, the off-pitch stuff in recent years makes me think so much less of him than any missed interception ever could. Fuck-ups on the pitch happen, but Se Queda-gate, Davis Cup nonsense and being involved with a documentary in which a player clowns on Pique& #39;s own club?

And that whole President Pique meme needs to die, immediately. His ego, coupled with status as a former star player, a mentality that saw him setting off stink bombs on planes in his late 20s and the power of a club president is the most toxic combination imaginable.
