I’d take having him as a ‘new signing’, as long as we don’t have to fork out another €89m for it.He just needs to be out for another month and the, “like a new signing” will probably pop up at some point.

I have bad news for you.I’d take having him as a ‘new signing’, as long as we don’t have to fork out another €89m for it.
Ah, I maybe mixed up the currencies … [franticly googles] yes … well, I found claims we paid around £80.5m, £81.3m or £82.2m, so I guess that fits with the claims of €95m at the time.I have bad news for you.
It was €100m.
Pretty sure it was 100m and 85m in pounds. Hence all the talk about how much he costs all the time.Ah, I maybe mixed up the currencies … [franticly googles] yes … well, I found claims we paid around £80.5m, £81.3m or £82.2m, so I guess that fits with the claims of €95m at the time.
If that’s true, I only missed by €1m more than you did
Not according to my google. Unless we’ve paid more since, but I can’t imagine what dependant clauses might have been triggered. Then again, these numbers are not official, so either way it’s the more or less intelligent guesswork of journalists we’re going off.Pretty sure it was 100m and 85m in pounds.

More the fact that if they were gonna charge him, they probably would have done so by now.wonder if the club heard something from the police
Very Meta jokeBold move hiring an extra from The Social Network as his lawyer.
Don’t shoot the messenger.Very Meta joke
Antony has not been charged with any crime.Why aren't they using the Mason Greenwood rule with Antony? Why is Antony allowed back in the squad whilst eh investigation is still ongoing? I know arsenal have done that with a certain someone but why are united using one rule for Greenwood and another for Antony? Have the club got the balls to face up to the public backlash and the inevitable Rachel Riley tweets?
Fair enough. If he has co-operated with both Brazilian and UK police and they're satisfied for the moment it makes sense.
I firmly believe he must have done something shitty though, but that's just my opinion.
He has cooperated with both Brazil and English police and has not been charged for like 3 months.
Protecting alleged victim is important but we also have an obligation to protect Antony from unjust punishment when the allegations could very well turn out to be false. Unless the police proceeds with the case, this was right decision.

United really are the club with no morals.
Horrific decision but expected as much from them

Haha you have completely friend requested that one or somethingDon’t shoot the messenger.
What would you do?United really are the club with no morals.

The issue is he’s not been charged with anything. City played Mendy, Arsenal are playing Partey, Brighton played Bissouma, Bayern played Ribery the list goes on. It’s a mix of football clubs not caring / as employers not being able to drop them if they are only being investigated and not yet chargedUnited really are the club with no morals.

Nailed it.Haha you have completely friend requested that one or something
Antony hasn't been charged. He was interviewed yesterday for hours by police and United feel he has provided enough evidence to prove his innocence.Why aren't they using the Mason Greenwood rule with Antony?

Being a shitty person and a shitty boyfriend to your partners isn't a criminal offence. You can be both those things and not somebody who physically and sexually assaults people.
