It should now have dawned on him already, but if not the manager, Ferguson or a fellow senior player who has played at the elite level for longer needs to advise him. It’s fine being a normal lad who has a group of ordinary mates with whom you travel to international tournaments and holiday with when you are at Sheffield Utd or Hull, but you’re now the most expensive defender in world football and club captain for Manchester United. You shouldn’t be just hanging out in places like this where the potential is always going to be there for a group of pricks to get you in trouble. A similar incident that veers off a little worse could cost you your career and the club will already be furious at the reputational damage done.
