Yeah well doesn't make any sense to be travelling especially in low class flights, without I imagine much leg space. At least he had the decency not to set up photos of him at the airport.
He's supposed to be managing a hamstring.
Maybe he hears Guendouzi is inbound and has gone off on one.
Of course players can do with their time accordingly but the captain being injured hoping on a cheap flight screams of something peculiar to me

He's not flying to Australia, he's going to Dublin where once the plane gets to the correct flying altitude the seat belt fasten sign comes on for the descent to Dublin airport.

And if there's a tail wind it's only 35 minutes, not even time for a good crap.

I have him locked up down here pedaling away on an exercise bike.*

Not to worry Drummond, our booze bottles are in a high kitchen unit, he wouldn't be able to reach.

In season players should maintain a high standard and respect their professionalism. Being elite professional you have to be very focused and Nutrition fitness and conditioning is essential. I always respecting likes of Milner Rice and Ronaldo for they not only are maintaining a balanced diet but they are not drinking alcohol on not on religious grounds.

Is it a coincidence for McGinn to do his hamstring? When he must have been suffering fatigue. Rest and recuperation is what's needed for him.
