For someone who has come from such a disadvantaged background, he seems to have such a poor attitude. You would have thought he'd appreciate the position he's in.
It doesn't necessarily work like that. I'm not for a minute excusing what he's allegedly done - if true, there but for fortune goes another Lee Hughes - but it's not as simple as "he's got loads of money, so therefore he should be happy". There are some things money alone won't cure.
He posted something on Twitter earlier about a person's worst enemy being their own mind; I wouldn't pretend to know Saido's mind at all, but I'd hazard a guess that when you flee your homeland at the age of ten to escape a conflict which has killed your father, you're going to be carrying more baggage than just what's in your suitcase. Maybe that's not it, maybe I'm totally wrong, but this scandal and the ones earlier in the year have a whiff of deeper troubles to me. Sometimes these things get planted in childhood and don't crop up until later in life; all the positive attitude in the world can't prevent it.
Of course, you don't solve these problems by playing Lewis Hamilton up the motorway in the middle of the night, and it's lucky no one was hurt or killed by what allegedly happened. If I'm wrong and this incident really is about pure empty-headed idiocy then fair enough, throw the book at him. But if there are demons at work, then Saido, you need to get help before you do something you can't take back. I trust that those around him know which it is, and will act accordingly.
