The emotional happiness of a player is of course key to their success on the field. And the example of Angel di Maria over the last 12 months has been a classic case.
His wife seems unhappy in Manchester and this may yet force his hand on a move.
With Louis van Gaal refusing to commit either way on the player’s future, in a press conference on Wednesday, it looks more likely that he will leave for Paris at this point.
Perhaps players should be banned from having wives!
But the contrast between the body language of him and Manchester United’s latest flyer – Memphis Depay – couldn’t be more polemic.
Depay looks absolutely made up to have joined Manchester United – like it’s a genuine dream come true – and he posted his latest image on Instagram after his second training session for the club.
We have maintained since the summer began that Manchester United would seriously struggle to sign a better player than Depay.
He has as much potential as Cristiano Ronaldo. Whether he can add finesse to his game and realise all of that promise, remains to be seen.
But, at just 21 years of age he’s a fantastic prospect and surely the one that Manchester United fans will be looking out for with the greatest anticipation and excitement next season.
Let’s remind ourselves of the magic of Memphis while we await his debut.
