    No I meant more to do with sport than culture in general. Players are eminently replaceable in us sports. At Professional levels basically all sport is predicated on maximising value out of players contracts. Even to the extent that good players are allowed to walk or traded because their contract is expiring and you can get someone cheaper.

    Even in college sports which I’ve always thought of as being most akin to football in terms of how fans interact with it, the players are there for 3-5 years maximum.

    Let’s not get too attached to any player because none of them will be here in two years time just shouldn’t be a thing in the premier league.
