Culture makes a big difference I think. It’s a bit like how we were able to squeeze the last drops out of Fergie’s last title winning team, yet they immediately became creaking OAPs once Moyes got in the door.

Benzema was clearly done in his last year at Madrid, yet they were able to get the most out of him for just a bit longer. He goes to Saudi and can’t be arsed anymore. Marcelo the same. I bet if modric went anywhere else he’d suddenly look every minute of those 38 years.
