Yeah my guess is things like as the team training complex, and things such lounge for WAGs, team cafeteria, physio staff and doctors, and all those nicieites that Euro players had with their top tier clubs and expect to have at a place that's got so much money to be paying them a salary more than they've made in many years, is missing.
Instead the top top guys like Ronaldo have a couple cooks and handlers and private airplanes and driver for him specifically while at home and while on team activiites, while the Saudi nationals have none of that, and the families themselves are basic, and the middle to upper level guys like Henderson, have some of that but not all of that, nor to the extent they are used to and expecting. And crowds and atmosphere isn't the same.
Henderson specifically, I think it was his conscience more than anything to push him back at least to the continent.
