Yeah fair enough, but from an outside view it feels like Sir Alex was a big reason why he ended up staying, and his family for 4 more years than they initially planned. (2010 when the Madrid rumours were strong)Yeah I remember that well, and I have no doubt they had prior discussions about leaving etc, doesn't negate the fact that what she said would have pissed me off personally - it's akin to me coming home devastated being fired and having my wife saying "that's awesome, we can have a month long holiday now".
Just come across disrespectful and dispassionate towards your partner.
Seems like his wife never warmed to the city and was happy to leave and planning it for a while. She must have been frustrated when Patrice signed 4 years in 2010.
I get what you’re saying but they’ve probably spoke about leaving a lot, and this was the inevitable push to leave. Did end up staying for another year before leaving though. It’s a bit insensitive of her but she must have had strong reasons. Who knows?
If we’re honest it was best for both parties that he left at the time. There were signs of decline in 2012 season.
