I’d honestly say the exact same about mental health. When a player opens up everybody will praise them for their bravery and honesty in the moment.
But the minute a discussion about something like being captain/crucial penalties comes up you can guarantee they’ll be a lot of people questioning wether they’re mentally strong enough.
People laughed about Paul Mcgrath saying he's won MOTM whilst drunk and he's talking about it deadly serious about what a serious issue he had.
He was suicidal and played games with bandages on his wrists from slitting them.
