Seen it attributed on a few accounts, but yeah, I'd assume a large pinch of salt would be needed.

Yeah, not remotely falling for that being a real quote. That guy's twitter is full of support for Greenwood. Yeah, I'd assume Erik is smarter than to get involved in that minefield before he's even arranged his office layout Indeed. The chap might be getting a letter from a legal team if he keeps that level of bullshit up.

The content of what he is saying is likely. If he gets away what the alleged offences I struggle to see how the club don’t slow phase him back in.
To be very very very clear I am stating what I think would happen and not what I think should be done

Good luck with him being slowly integrated back into the team in any scenario. There would have to be an incredible turnaround, we all heard what we heard.
Hopefully they don't get conned by twitter into thinking that plenty of United fans would forgive him because most of those voices are from International fans, particularly in Africa. I'd expect an Old Trafford crowd to boo him off the pitch IF he ever played for us again.

Erik is a man who has lived and breathed football his entire life so understandable he is only viewing this from a football lens. And yes it would make his job a lot easier if he had Greenwood. We could prioritize defence and midfield and wait until next summer to buy another forward to replace Ronaldo. Instead we will have to splash at least £50M on a forward this summer which will consume at least half our budget.

Coming back in to the 1st squad for pre season. Source? I cannot imagine anybody thinks this is a good idea? Even the fucking gnomes running this club? The charges can been dropped but there is no cunting way this piece of shit is innocent of anything. With every passing day I feel nothing but shame to be associated with this club.

We all need to be very careful here. Unfortunately these cases are notoriously difficult to even prosecute, never mind lead to a conviction. And unless that taped conversation was faked, it still doesn’t change the fact of how awful that was and what an obnoxious prick he came across as.

It's hard to imagine anything in that alleged tape was false. It is very easy to imagine that charges could have been dropped after months of lobbying and influence from obvious parties. Cases are difficult to prosecute I agree completely, but that audiotape could hypothetically be examined for authenticity no?

Sadly that's the best we can say if the alleged offences do not see a court room.

There is zero evidence anywhere that this rumour is true by the way.
