[I'm With Stupid]

He's the greatest comedic actor of the past 20 years and I'm not even joking. That video of him when Gundogan scores is just pure gold. Seen one of his meltdowns the other week after the Arsenal game and he said off the cuff the defence is more distracted than a lifeguard on a nudist beach!

Off the cuff, or off the notepad of 'witty things to say' he's got in front of him.

 

[Mr Fraser]

In his own statement (written by a PR of course), he says he’s agreed to stay away and focus on assisting the authorities, hence it’s a ‘mutual’ gardening leave.

Think gardening leave is different whereby you serve a period of notice away from work before starting a new job.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

So he is suspended

No, he's 'agreed to delay his return'. Standard procedure before he leaves the club 'by mutual consent'.

Sancho (Fourth biggest in the league) - £350k pw
Antony - £250k pw

This was one that made me laugh:

They’re too thick to realise that they’ve already done that at United with Louis Edwards!

II is not without some irony that there isn’t a club out there whose supporters know less of their history than united’s.

Anthony statement:

“I have agreed with United to take a period of absence while I address the allegations made against me”.“This was mutual decision”.“I want to reiterate my innocence of the things I have been accused of, I will fully cooperate with the police”.

Shit, he will be sorely missed by United's opponents.

 

[Vienna_70]

Rashford and Martian must be the biggest piss-take.

Magliar can’t be far behind.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Honestly take yourselves back 15 years and who the hell would have seen the fortunes of both City/ United flip so dramatically.................

Certainly not 15 years and a week ago…

 

[Bluemoonadam]

They aren't in a good position put it that way, let there troubles continue.
