Benjamin Mendy - City lose case and Mendy awarded £11m in back pay (p168)

You're talking about him being legally proven guilty. I'm talking about whether he did it. You seem to think that those two things are the same. But in rape cases, it is demonstrably true that there is very little relation between the two. The vast majority of rapists, thousands and thousands of people, are walking free having never seen any sort of justice for their actions. Ultimately, as you say, none of us know, but we can still make a probability judgement about whether 9 women would independently choose to wrongly accuse someone of rape.

We don’t know if 9 women independently brought charges or not. A lot of the women would have mixed in the same clubbing circles so I think it’s unlikely that there was no information shared between any of them, but we might never know.

I agree the conviction rate is very low but that doesn’t change one of the founding tenants of our legal system I.e. the accused is innocent until proven guilty.

The evidence against Mendy was/is flimsy. If the evidence was compelling I would want him convicted.

Mangala had a few good games and was always professional, even in his last season he came off the bench at Old Trafford and played his part in a 1 goal win which was vital at that stage of the season. Compared to Mendy he was Paolo fucking Maldini

Yep, I’m not having the Mangala slander, played 9 PL games during the Centurions season (15 overall) including Liverpool at home (5-0) Spurs Home (4-1) and 45 mins at old Trafford on the 2-1 (coming on for Kompany and helping us see out the game)

For that alone he’s far from our worse signing ever

Also played alright in the Madrid semi final home leg when we kept them out under Pellegrini.
 
on the pitch he was a defensive liability and was hugely overrated as an attacking option......Delph, Zinchenko Ake have all been way better performers than him and none of those are specialist fullbacks (and two are not even defenders!)

Whether he is guilty or not he has wasted his career........

Goodbye - dont let the door hit you on the arse on the way out
