Alan Brazil has claimed that Hector Bellerin’s form is linked to his new diet, urging him to eat a raw steak…
The Spaniard put in another questionable display last night as our team was eliminated from the Europa League by Atletico Madrid, and that performance has brought his game back under scrutiny, having become worryingly inconsistent in recent terms.
It’s public knowledge that his family returned to Spain, leaving him with a smaller home circle, which would be my idea of a reason behind his possible struggles, but Alan Brazil has other ideas…
Alan Brazil said on his talkshow: “Get a steak down you pal! Bellerin, get that steak down you raw!
“That’ll help.
“He was a good player but he’s gone… I don’t know what’s happened to him.”
When asked by Ally McCoist if he puts Bellerin’s poor form down to his diet, Al replied: “I do.
“Look at [Diego] Costa – do you think he has a Caesar salad every Sunday lunch?
“Vegans don’t say ‘hi, how’re you doing’, they say ‘hi, I’m a vegan’. They get it in first.”
Jack Wilshere is another player who has made the switch to a vegan diet, and his fitness and all-round well-being appears to have improved with it, and I for one can’t personally comment on the benefits or negatives that come with it.
Could Bellerin’s diet have a detrimental effect on Hector’s form or attitude? Does Alan Brazil just like to be controversial?
