Manchester United official announcement! Greenwood left the team, he denied domestic violence, and Manchester United PR was completely rotten
Finally, Manchester United's official announcement of Mason Greenwood's future, Manchester United's official statement is quite weak. Let's take a look at the second half of Manchester United's official statement: "Based on the information available to us, we conclude that the material posted online does not provide a complete picture and that Greenwood did not commit the alleged offence, which means that Greenwood has made a mistake and that he is responsible, as Greenwood has said publicly today." ”
I don't know what this smell of grievance can say, probably saying that Greenwood did not make a mistake, but forced by public opinion to let Greenwood leave the team, this result is quite surprising. Manchester United began planning Greenwood's comeback from the summer window, but because of the leak of the plan had to change the caliber, and now forced to announce Greenwood's departure, I am looking forward to what Adam Crafton of TA will come forward and say, this time he needs to make a statement, because it was his leaked plan that caused Manchester United to change his mind.
Greenwood also officially responded to the departure, using an interview with The Sun to explain: "I understand that people judge me for what I see and hear on social media, and I know that people think for the worst, I grew up knowing that violence in any relationship is wrong, I didn't do the things in the allegations, I purged all the allegations in February, but I admit that I made mistakes in the relationship, and I take responsibility for what caused the social media posts to happen." ”
Denying the existence of domestic violence, admitting that there is misconduct in the relationship, Greenwood's rebuttal also pale, Manchester United and Greenwood are already a bit of a rotten, perfunctory taste, anyway, I can't get public relations, then I simply perfunctory announcement, anyway, it means that Greenwood left Manchester United.
Greenwood does need to take responsibility, but it's not this way, he and his girlfriend have made mistakes. If his Internet celebrity girlfriend only uses text to accuse Greenwood of domestic violence on social media, maybe the follow-up is not so troublesome, but pictures and texts appear, the combined effect of the two is no less than "indecent video", Greenwood tries to repair it in his own way, he and his girlfriend get back together, his girlfriend successfully gets pregnant, and both parties successfully give birth to a child, this child is what Greenwood needs to bear, because of the stain, Greenwood must pay more for this child.
However, public opinion still will not let him go. These public opinions invisibly inflicted a violent act on Greenwood's family and Greenwood's children. In the future, the child may carry more things, at least among his peers, maybe some extras, such as mockery, but the Western world, which claims to care for children, has always been paranoid, and the voice of the world is managed by paranoia. Although I previously thought that Manchester United's PR was carried out in an orderly manner, but PR is based on consequentialism, now Manchester United is in vain, Greenwood is still leaving, then Manchester United's PR this time is equivalent to failure, defeat to public opinion.
Greenwood should also learn to grow, because the circulation of such pictures and audio on the Internet is itself extremely irresponsible, and Greenwood's girlfriend is also taking responsibility for her bad decisions. However, I don't think Mason Greenwood's fate with Manchester United is over, there is always a goodbye.
Manchester United need to reflect on several issues, and I expect the media to continue to disclose more details: First of all, Manchester United must have made this decision due to strong internal and external public pressure, so what is the basis for these decisions? Secondly, who exactly leaked Mason Greenwood's comeback plans, and are these people the same people who leaked United's starting list before each game? Finally, TA reporter Adam Crafton was silent before, why did he suddenly stand up and denounce Manchester United? These questions need to be answered.
