They'll taint the club for a generation if they go through with this. Every time he sets foot on the pitch in England the fans will boo and chant about him being an abuser. It'll come to be what United are associated with all the time. They think they can boil the frog and ease him back like...
I think losing Mahrez and Gundogan will noticeably weaken City, pair that with the come-down of having achieved the treble and no one ever having won the league four in a row, and I think it'll likely they don't win it this time around.
1. Arsenal
2. City
3. Liverpool
4. United
5. Newcastle
Women do get prosecuted for it when it's very clear cut. There was a case recently in the UK where the girl was sentenced to 8 and a half years in prison for faking injuries and rape claims, but that was against multiple men.
I can't think of another club that releases talent like they do, especially when they kept players like Nathan Baker and Izzy Brown out on loan for years on end.
I think they have more chance than anyone else after City and Arsenal. Obviously you could make the argument that Liverpool are more likely than Arsenal given their end of season form, but something about them just doesn't feel right to me.
Somehow Chelsea manage to be genuinely exceptional at developing players, yet utter buffoons when it comes to knowing who to keep and who to let go. The club have no midfield, yet could have had Rice, Mount and Musiala for £0.
I thought Henderson would stay but I supposed £700k a week is hard to turn down.
I could see Jones being converted into a #6. He's just played that role in a double pivot throughout the U21 Euros.
