Mason Greenwood

Old farts here gave me shit for using this phrase in jest.

Now Marseille's social media team is using it.

Retrospective W.

Great season by Greenwood. Would you take him at Barca despite the PR baggage? @soul24rage @Birdy @Porque @fergus90

Everyone already knew he was an incredible player. Before his scandal he would have cost minimum 80-90m, and perhaps United's fortunes would have changed completely had that incident never happened. Greenwood would be up front instead of Hojlund (perhaps worst United starting striker in history, all things considered)

Butterfly effect for you.

But anyway, it would be nice if all the top clubs had an unwritten understanding not to sign him. Everyone needs a striker but it would be nice for football to maintain its morals at the top. There's no forgiveness without justice in the first place, the fact he hasn't served any kind of legal punishment should keep him banished from elite football.

But wouldn't it be a PR disaster for a big club like Barca?

Yes, most likely. We could turn it as giving a chance to somebody that fucked up and now is aiming to be a more responsible better man now. Most likely we'll stay away though. Not worth it for a squad player.

People love redeeming stories :lol: almost as much as trashing people that step out of line.

His girlfriend forgave him, and she believes he's a better person now. That's enough.
Its hard to judge not knowing exactly what happened. At least I never caught wind of what actually occurred.

Extremely talented player though, a shame he primarily drifts to the right where Lamine occupies.
