United might need a new CB by the looks.
Let's hope he didn't nut someone or it's a murder charge.

English causing trouble over seas? Doesn't sound right to me.

anyone seen the news on Maguire? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53860014 I'm told it was fisty cuffs with a greek police officer but yet to see that confirmed by reliable sources! If so chances of starting the season vs bunking up with a Greek cell mate?
Cheeky backhander to the cop setting him up for life will soon sort that out.
Presumably someone around him will pay somebody who knows somebody and an envelope will go to the right place and it will all be a misunderstanding. If it's like the VAR decisions it'll inevitably go Utd's way and they'll probably end up getting paid for the trouble for good measure.
Ed Woodward is currently negotiating the terms of this - he wants to pay it over 3 years with add-ons.
Id just leave him there to be honest.
Do we reckon he's getting jail time? Aggravated assault is jail surely...
Is this the kind of negotiating like: he asked how much, they said £50k, so he's agreed £150k and merchandising %.
his lawyer, sorry more likely Man Utd's lawyers (plural), will presumably argue risk of covid and find a way for him to do at worst a glorified house arrest in some luxury greek villa getting waited on and no doubt serviced by some very attractive maids. This will be despite recent videos like this showing him hanging out in crowded bars, shaking hands with people and immediately wiping his hands all over his face, which makes a mockery of the covid risk stuff - although when it was taken is unclear to be fair. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9Jjm8zYdIc
What an absolute clown. Why cant they just have a quiet holiday in their own villa or something.
Self defence against a copper? Good luck.
The aggrevated assult part is getting me. Im no law buff (Well football laws im a professional ref) but it doesnt read well. I thought he'd get off but :
"Aggravated assault is an attempt to cause serious bodily harm to an individual with disregard for human life. Factors that raise an assault to the aggravated level typically include the use of a weapon, the status of the victim, the intent of the perpetrator, and the degree of injury caused"
That's jail time isn't it...
