More whataboutery.
Can't see him ever getting an England call-up until
innocence is absolutely established. So far he's not been charged as charges were dropped and has reconciled with his victim, but neither are proof of innocence.
Too toxic. Need to crack on and not allow these type of disciplinary issues distract our own rehabiltation.
He's a supreme talent, generational almost, but there'll be other players.
It's quite possible but also there's reasonable doubt into whether or not crucial innocence is established.
The CPS dropped the case only after witnesses backed out and 'new evidence came to light'. It'd be interesting to see what this is, but, being the CPS, it's likely to be evidence harming a conviction chance more than anything else.
United declaring his innocence in their statement is controversial as neither the CPS nor Police stated he was.
United continued to suggest he's a goner because he 'acknowledged mistakes in his own conduct' which was not elaborated upon, either.
There'd be pressure to publish the findings of report, minute by minute, correspondence into the matter and then scrutiny to follow. Considering Arnold left under a cloud he might want to 'take a few down with him'.
It's not worth the hassle for one employee who has brought all of this upon themselves.
