Seems to me the lad suffers from delusions of grandeur and can't accept any role but leader. He's a huge talent, mind you, but not the biggest fish in the pond. His will and opinion of himself are in conflict with team agendas, which apparently is unacceptable to him. On the other hand, I can imagine trying to assert himself at UAE, with Gianetti and Maxtin naturally totally behind Pogacar, and with Almeida methodically pulling his weight whenever called upon, has tormented Ayuso to the point of loathing his cage. It's what happens when there are too many roosters in the chicken coop.
