Magalhaes is the Arsenal CB, so that will contribute to a rough start for them.
From a footballing perspective, probably yes. The Olympics is far more about the experience than it is the actual football, and the sort of players who revel in that are the ones slightly below elite, the sort who are going to overawed by coming across the likes of LeBron or Bolt in the Olympic village. Mo is the sort of person who is likely on their speed dial and can meet them for dinner whenever he wants so doesnt need to get a kick out of seeing them in the canteen.
