Seeds of doubt have been sewn through the season with complacency against Palermo, Juve and most notably Arsenal. Ironically, in the Arsenal match it was Mexes that acted like the leader rather than Thiago, and that was a little worrying. I watched Brazil-Egypt the other day and the same doubts again showed. In the second half, the Brazil side switched off and Thiago as captain in those times should show leadership and make sure his teammates stay focused. Nothing happened and the defence was shambolic, again Thiago should be leading the backline out there. I'm not saying I think we did the right thing, but I must admit all these incidents have taken place within six months, which isn't a good sign for someone who was meant to be our next leader.
This... is why I never really was against his sale
