I wish people would stop going on about Foden and Greenwood and only the black lad faced continuing backlash. What is this BLM? Some players get more scrutiny and criticism than others; it’s not because of the colour of their skin. One plays for Manchester United and the other Manchester City (there is still a difference in these terms) one was caught on video using laughing gas, one wasn’t.

I hope that none of these current rumours have any truth in them, Twitter should be closed down. I really don’t see how it helps
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If they want to report on him for the laughing gas thing then that is fine. He is guilty of it. But when you have them making up stories about him that isn't on. And when you look at how young talented black players have been targeted in the past, ala Defoe and Sterling, don't be surprised if some feel that there is a racial element to it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Surprised is the last thing I am that some people think there is a racial element to it.

Were you guys aware that it's believed Greenwood is dealing with a close friend having committed suicide recently?

That was the City academy lad. Really sad story that, think Greenwood dedicated a goal to him in fact.

I hadn’t heard that until on here, it’s a sad story as it always is with such stories. Until this recent ‘story’ the Foden/Greenwood story and the laughing gas story I just put down to lads being lads. Millionaire teenagers I mean it’s bound to happen even when they are public figures and therefore ‘role models’.

Tbf Rooney was tortured by the media. It might be more of a class issue than a race one.

Rooney was banging grannies, cheating on his wife, smoking, drinking etc. As I said, I don't have any issues with the press reporting factual stories. I do have an issue when they are making stuff up.

The main issue many in the media had with Rooney, was that he was a wealthy young working class lad.
Some of the references made about him and his family, were basically disgusting, and were routed in nothing other than jealousy.

Certainly about him being late for training. And when Ole blew that out of the water, they then started reporting he had an attitude problem in training. Which I guess was also a load of rubbish based on what Ole has said and what I have heard, read and seen of the lads attitude.

Rooney and becks got grief for various things at one point. But came back from it and the media moved on. With likes of sterling it is still "different" imo

As soon as I saw Greenwood called up for England I knew the media would be after him. I bet he's not doing anything any differently to Jude Bellingham in reality, but you don't hear a peep about him.

Harvey Elliot will be next.

Some of the things associated with young footballers is the norm.

I've read and heard first hand with footballer mates, academy and first teamers, how girls with fake designer gear hang around certain places hoping to be noticed by footballers. Security is even on it and let certain ones into hotels etc.

Yeah I know but if you tested all the toilets in Parliament for bizzle it's full of it and no one cares.

I cannot wait for the tabloids to fold. It will leave this country in a far better state, we have the worst press standards in the EU I believe. I'll try and find the link but it's worth noting the Mail is the worst of the lot and by some distance.

Thing is people love it don't they.

The player is in his 20s so it's not Greenwood.

Imagine if it's Rashford.

I saw something about it being a 20 year old Chelsea player early this morning however cannot find the link now.

No offence but maybe you should keep your thoughts to yourself until the player is known.

Nah TRS, full offence. Some people are just vile and can make jokes around a rape case. Weird people

It doesn't offend me at all but why? I'm flattered that my imagination is so consequential though.

Given where the report is coming from, it suggests that it's a player from a North West club which could well be United.

Good job I didn’t falsely name the wrong dude then.

Shiiit! Even Ravel Morrison wasn't this much of a bad boy at that age.

Being in a car that was stopped by the police and found to contain fire arms? Debatable.

Because there was absolutely no need to bring Rashford's name up.

That was one of his quieter weekends.

But seriously though, you'd hope the rumours aren't true cause it wouldn't bode well for him fulfilling his potential.
