Life really has come fast for him.
When he was signed he was seen as one of the jewels in the English crown. Excellent performances in Germany, German pundits baffled that Southgate wasn't starting him ahead of the likes of Foden and Saka, massive salary, £73m price tag and a boat load of promise.
Fast-forward now and he's basically just a rotted husk of what he was. Never performs when he plays (or rarely), has a piss poor attitude, just fallen out with his manager, dropped from the England squad because he never properly trains, suspended from actual first-team football because of the falling out with his manager and now just fucking around on EA Sports FC at 01:00 in the morning.
What a fall from grace.
I wonder if he hit that point that so many young men hit where they go from being able to eat whatever they want, drink, barely sleep, and still run around with endless energy to suddenly feeling tired and putting on the weight. Happened to most of us in our 20s where all of a sudden our physical fitness depends on our lifestyle choices.
Yeah he looks way off it physically. He doesn’t look like he has a body like Rooney say where he looked heavy but was strong, Sancho just looks heavy.
