It's not about being a good person or about being nice / doing the right thing - it's about winning at all costs.
Any player that doesn't get it is having a laugh at the club and the fans.
There are other jobs out there more suitable for people that want to compromise their careers to be with their family / friends.
Nice guys rarely win.
