Sorry, do you pay regular visits to the Newcastle and Liverpool training ground, by any chance?
Just because he said the training here was "easier", doesn't mean the quality is any less.
Easier in terms of work load for all we know.
That's not the point though, is it? He is talking down on his former club - and you find that perfectly ok. It is after all "his opinion".
No he's not, don't be such a drama queen, ffs.
