Manchester United are being ridiculed on social media after having had to release yet another 'club statement.'
The Red Devils are currently in turmoil. All the enthusiasm about their successful summer business has dissipated after poor on-field performances and several high-profile off-field issues.
The situations surrounding Mason Greenwood, Antony and now Jadon Sancho have forced Man Utd to issue several public statements, which has seen the club branded as 'Statement FC,' a term now even trending on Twitter.
While the allegations against Antony and Greenwood are no laughing matter, the drama surrounding Sancho could have been handled far more delicately and the public ridicule easily avoided.

In their latest statement, Man Utd announced that "Jadon Sancho will remain on a personal training programme away from the first-team group, pending resolution of a squad discipline issue" after his public spat with head coach Erik ten Hag.
Here's what Twitter had to say on the matter...
More statements than wins

Sancho would have gotten his opportunity if he just kept his Twitter fingers to himself, that’s what makes this situation even funnier. His idiocy getting the right reward

It’s over.
£85m on Antony.
£72m on Sancho.
In the last 3 years, both are under 24 and neither are injured yet none of them are available for selection due to different reasons.
Absolutely embarrassing footballing institution. https://t.co/QBjjzKCvPm— 维尼熊 (@UtdEIIis) September 14, 2023
