Looking at them all together at Adli's party, reminded me when earlier this season a couple of friends and I went to watch Milan - Spezia (I think it was November).
Crazy day, we came later than expected in Milano which lead to missing Theo's opener. Later on, Maldini scored only for Giroud to earn us 3 points with a great volley in the stoppage time. After the match, we went to eat something and then my friend managed to get us into a special VIP part of a club where most players hang out after the match, at least as we were told.
We went there, and after some time the place was supposed to be filled with models and Milan players. We thought It was a scam, but after some time I noticed Theo and Brahim walking past us, they were the first to arrive. Not long after, you could see Tonali, Calabria, Kalulu, Tomori, Leao, Saelemaekers, and of course Giroud. Even Mbaye Niang was there giving banter-era vibes
During the evening we got to chat a bit with all of them, they all seem like good kids, a bit reserved. But I was at most impressed with Theo and Giroud, they were really friendly and open to talk a bit more. Of course, we were not pushy, congratulated them on the win, and had a small chat in general. They were all having a great time when "Pioli's on fire" was playing, unreal stuff. You could tell they form a healthy atmosphere in the dressing room.
At some point later in the evening, I was returning from the bathroom and I saw my friend, who is btw completely uninterested in football, talking with Theo and Brahim. I asked Theo what was he talking about, and Theo (who was btw Milan's captain that evening) told me my friend said he doesn't follow today's football as it got too commercialized and that he only recognizes Maradona, Pele, and old Ronaldo as true greats

Theo had a good laugh and after some more chat we all had shots, and Theo insisted to pay for it.
On the other hand, I also spoke and took a photo with Giroud, as I told him I'm from Croatia he immediately screamed 'Di si brateee' then we both burst to laugh. He's really easygoing as you would assume and you can tell he knows how to party well.
Oh yes, Brahim was acting like a puppy, following Theo all over the place
All in all, a top match and party afterward, looking forward to repeating it next season.
