When you are 40 years old in a football club you have a lot more responsibilities than any other player in the team, you are sometimes twice the age of some players in the field and that gives you a lot of responsibility not just the way you play but also the way you act. Think about yourself and how immature you think you were just 5 years ago, even when you compare from 30 to 35 you feel like a lot of maturing, whereas this guy has 10-15 and sometimes more difference with his teammates so he has to bring that maturity to the club as well.
Veteran presence is something every team sport cares about, and when your veteran is a 40 year old gold scoring machine like Ibra that could make these kinds of moves to motivate the team, even if they ended up losing this was a way to help them get hyped a bit.
Ibra leads by example, he is an unquestionable champion and young players can only learn from him. No matter his age he plays like 10 years ago when he was at full force. Without him Milan could not be where thay are now. Tomorrow against Verona they can easily win and keep on leading Serie A.Veteran presence is something every team sport cares about, and when your veteran is a 40 year old gold scoring machine like Ibra that could make these kinds of moves to motivate the team, even if they ended up losing this was a way to help them get hyped a bit.
