This is more my issue with the game. City, for all their riches, haven’t spent the sort of money United have on singular players. The issue is the wages these fuckers have bit part players on. This inflated the money that second sting fuckers get; and then that’s what makes other clubs less appealing. If you can earn more money on someone’s bench, the games gone.

Yep ridiculous giving him that much money, especially when still under contract. He’ll just be the next in the line of English goalkeepers to be destroyed by the media 12 months after making his England debut so will lose ability just like Pickford, James, Hart, Robbo etc
Will be interesting to see how the media report on the club captain being arrested.
Lord knows if it was Pogba.
An £80m punching bag.
Are they going to throw him in the maze or what?
Allegedly attacking police officers, eh?
That smells like potential jail time to me.

Manchester United captain Harry Maguire has been arrested on the island of Mykonos for allegedly attacking police officers after a raucous night out.
The £85million England international was allegedly involved in a bust-up with a group of other Englishmen before becoming 'very abusive and aggressive' towards officers who arrived to intervene.
Maguire, 27, spent last night in a cell along with two other men aged 28 and 29, and the trio are expected to appear before a state prosecutor on the nearby island of Syros later today.

Imagine being that other Englishman, who was drunk enough to have a look at Maguire and going "yeah, I can take that ogre".
For you or me jail time for sure but for the captain of Man Utd not a chance ... bail and home by Monday then a small fine and a couple of Utd ticket for the local chief of police ....
Pretty much.
what a bellend
Well, Theseus is long dead, so he will be safe.
Thats a bit highbrow for round here, aint it?
Hang on
Cunt bollocks fuck
The following appears to be an official Greek police statement, alleging Maguire both hit and kicked police officers, as well as being verbally abusive. It asserts that Maguire & the other suspects will be charged with aggravated assault.
So, either manure come up with a massive bung, or their captain and first choice CB is going to be unavailable for quite some time.
If Maguire is charged with aggravated assault on police officers, the FA will likely be under significant political pressure to suspend him pending the outcome of any trial.
All the corporations & brands sponsoring Slabhead will presumably run a mile too.

“The soccer player was verbally abusive to an officer and then hit him. The three were resisting when brought to the Mykonos police station,” said a police official, who added Maguire and his friends will be taken by boat to Syros to face charges brought by a public prosecutor. Greek media reported that Maguire had got into “a very heated altercation” with other English holidaymakers on the party island late on Thursday. When policemen, subsequently called to the scene, attempted to break up the midnight brawl, they were verbally abused.
“There were several policemen there. At some point, one of the three members of the group – they were aged 27, 28, and 29 – threw a swing at one of the policemen and a fight ensued,” added police spokesperson Petros Vassilakis. “All of the three were arrested but during the effort to do so, the other two, including the football player, got violent also. They threw down at least two policemen, hit them with their fists and kicked them.
“I can’t tell you what they were telling us,” he added. “All English swear words against the authorities and against the work of the police. All three, including the football player, are being held in custody, locked up in Mykonos cell. They will appear before a state prosecutor on the island of Syros later today to be charged with aggravated assault.”
