It's almost as if his leave of absence and dates for return to the squad were discussed and agreed with the management beforehand, isn't it.

[Albion] Alexis Mac Allister - *** New Contract Until 2025 ***
- Thread starter ChazzyBHA
- Start date
"Unbelievable Jeff!"
Staggeringly predictable, organised and well managed to a clear plan by the club to allow a guy to celebrate an almost certain once in a lifetime achievement, and player keeps his side of the bargain. Unbelievable really.
Looking after players - especially overseas players - is one of the many reasons that we have a positive reputation with up and coming stars.
Similarly, it's on record how much Mac Allister appreciated being released for the Olympics in August 2021.
These things matter.
Don't think they need him. Jonny Howson is quite solid in that role.Hopefully playing against them, not for them

He’s back tomorrow. “Might be involved” v Everton. Has come back early out of loyalty to club according to The Athletic
Seen a few comments that Facu B is travelling with him too ?
That’s what I posted earlier but don’t see how it’s early as tomorrow is the 2 week mark !
You are hopelessly out of date as usual.
Mac 2022 is better than Kante 2022. Hands down.
Your argument is only valid if you are referring to the Kante having a good season, maybe 5 or 6 years ago? I’d be surprised if Kante ever finds that form again. Injuries and age have caught up with him, he is a shadow of his former self. Mac is the man now.
Erm. Yes he's been injured this season but last season he was on the ballon d'Or shortlist ffs !! And he's still only 31. Maccer nowhere near his level yet.

Maybe there was the unspoken agreement that he’d be back for Boro but now he’s gearing himself up for Everton - hence “early”.

Yes.
To be fair he was playing in South America on Thursday 31st March (1am UK time) flew back landing Friday and started against Norwich Saturday 2nd April
Almost certainly an early morning landing, so after a bit of dinner and a nice long sleep in his comfy first class bed he’ll be absolutely fine (not that he’ll be playing but will be good to see him back with the lads)
BA244 ? Departs B Aries 15:25, arrives LHR 6.59

Hmmm…not really last season…it was awarded in November LAST YEAR…so I’d hazard it was more based on the season 20/21….so maybe the OP’s comment about being out of date is valid?

Interesting. The media WhatsApp asked recipients not to publicise that. Naughty Athletic!
Can he fly direct to John Lennon airport - night's kip, and bob's your uncle.Almost certainly an early morning landing, so after a bit of dinner and a nice long sleep in his comfy first class bed he’ll be absolutely fine (not that he’ll be okaying but will be good to see him back with the lads)

So 4 weeks off then, not 2. Martinez on the bench today for Villa. Romero started for Spurs. That’s just 2 examples. How come Mac is not even back in the flipping UK yet?
