Think this should be in the Reece James thread, not the transfers thread 😃

Half the posts here should be in other threads 😃 For my tuppence re the Mendy and Greenwood cases, having studied law it became crystal clear that the more money you have, the better lawyers you can hire, and the scales of justice tip your way. In the 90s there were countless footballers celebrities Alex Ferguson etc that got off multiple driving and speeding offences using an expensive lawyer known as Mr Loophole. You or me could never afford his services. Sadly those who think the law is a level playing field are sadly misguided.

Anyway back on topic - we signed the Ecuadorian yet ???

There's an argument in that tweet where Molina's defamation lawsuit is against his claims towards the the Haiti FA and not Wahi. 

Matter of fact when you search Molina and defamation, that is the only thing you get. I'm not even seeing anything against Molina towards the claims he made towards Wahi. 

This whole cousin thing seems to be a fabrication. 

I admit I am so fucking confused on this all

I do not know who or what to believe atm

 Sky Sports say a “gentleman’s agreement” is in place for the Caicedo to leave Brighton for Chelsea. Today should see Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang join Marseille on a free transfer and Conor Gallagher has caught the eye of both Tottenham and West Ham.

We’ve been “weighing up,” “considering,” and “talking directly with Brighton” for weeks now. These journalists may as well not even say these things if nothing has changed. They’re just repeating themselves a hundred times. 

I saw someone remark how strange it was that we went crazy buying loads of players that we may not have needed the last couple of windows and had no issue putting up the huge fees. Now there’s a player that we desperately need and we’ve been haggling for ages. That’s what’s most frustrating about the Caicedo saga.

If the club wants to haggle and play stubborn hardball for targets in positions we’re steady in that’s all fine and good. But our midfield has 1 top class player + a bunch of literal teenagers currently. So why are we dragging our feet on the most important position in the team?

This thread has gone awol.

I apologise if I have contributed to that

but I will not abide open misogyny

I personally have a thick skin (try growing up a mixed race black lesbian, lol) but some of the things said here are archetypical toxic lad culture adjacent

Yep. Whether Greenwood was actually convicted for his crimes or not there should be zero doubt to the fact he's a piece of shit who beats women. The photo and audio evidence was clear as day and I don't think I've ever even seen him try to deny it. 

The whole thing smelled really bad from the start with even the father of the girl coming out in defense of Greenwood, which probably had more to do with the fact Mason Greenwood is a multi-millionaire rather than him being genuinely concerned about the well-being of his own daughter.

The Benjamin Mendy case seems a bit more vague though. The fact there were so many women accusing him would lean me to think there was something in the allegations but having read some media reports of the court case leaves some doubts too. An article on the Guardian quoted one of the accusers texting one of her friends the day after supposedly being raped at one of Mendy's sex parties as 'the best day of her life' and seemed to take pride in having shagged some celebrity footballers.

Even if some of the Mendy charges had actual merit, things like that are what probably brought the whole thing down like a house of cards. To convict him the jury would have needed to believe beyond any doubt he had indeed committed the horrible acts and having some bogus allegations in the mix probably provided the reasonable doubt Mendy needed for the not guilty verdict. Whether Benjamin Mendy is a rapist or not is unclear but at the very least he's a repulsive sex addict who in court bragged about sleeping with 10000 women in his life.
