Marvelous footballer but a f**king grade A lunatic 

Wouldn't want him he will undoubtedly bring the club into disrepute

Any other club and he would have been labeled as a marvelous signing.

At Chelsea, media will automatically be looking for the first sign of wrongdoing before going ballistic about Aurier. It'll be another Balotelli-like narrative but without the initial leniency

I think United are just distancing themselves from having agreed to sign him before his appeal is heard.

It looks a lot better PR wise to look like negotiations only opened once and if his appeal is successful.

But with egos like Pogba, Zlatan, Lukaku and Mourinho you'd think Utd would refrain from another volatile player on the books.

Well it just looked a very strange and unusual move that they "apparently" let it be known that they have no interest in signing him.

I'm sure they've been linked with 40 players this summer where the same statement would have been accurate.

Like I said, it screamed of "he's currently by definition a criminal that's not allowed into the country, a club of our stature and values would never associate with such a character" and in two weeks time if his appeal is successful they can spin it to "he's an innocent man who because of that suddenly became an option"

He's a TGV on the wing, has an unbelievable engine.

Not very technical though and a complete arse of a human being.

He'd do fine in the prem but for his attitude and general persona he can get lost.

1. A conviction which resulted in a sentence of less than twelve months’ imprisonment** - Paragraph 320 (2)(d) and S-EC1.4(c) Appendix FM provides for a mandatory refusal of entry clearance where a person has been convicted of an offence and sentenced to less than 12 months’ imprisonment, unless a period of 5 years has passed since the end of the sentence.

He wasn't sentenced to imprisonmebt it was a convertible sentence so community service and a fine they are just being self richeous,we let in Lithuanian serial killers no probs but not even a litter bug from outside the EU. 

Sounds like an officer was sticking a breathsliser test in his face he pushed it away which resulted in a "elbow to the throat" I don't know the man but I know French police are notoriously racist and if he actually hit an officer he wouldn't be getting community service, in any case the sentence is under appeal they could let him in its discretionary the comment to the paper reads a law that's doesn't apply to him only those serving custodial sentences.

Racists police in France ..say it ain't so.

Bottom line is that his appeal is due next week and depending on the success of that is whether Chelsea pursue this or not...

If we're alright with a player found guilty of manslaughter playing for us, I'm sure Aurier won't be a problem. 

Lol, no way we will bid for him!

But Alonso's visa was approved and he wasn't so volatile.

Aurier has pending visa issues and is pretty volatile

I'm not so sure, there aren't that many options and we do need to strengthen. 

I'd take him

Even if he is the French Joey Barton?  Admittedly a more talented Joey Barton, but still.

Just throw in a Good Behaviour clause and leave the rest to Conte.

If you count "waking up" by taking a tweet from an unreliable source at face value.

Ha, doesn't seem like a clause kinda guy.  I can imagine Conte strangling him with in the first month, we'd then be looking for a new manager as well as a new RWB. 

If we're alright with a player found guilty of manslaughter playing for us, I'm sure Aurier won't be a problem. 

By manslaughter do you mean the long dragging case of Drogba versus Arsenal? It was brutal.

Wouldn't touch him with a barge poll. He is a Balloteli waiting to happen.

Truly brutal
