most been active, except Arsenal who haven't tweeted anything for 8hrs - may be its nothing. will need to see.

Arsenal first team was flying to Germany today too right? Could also explain some of the social media quietness.

Seems like really irresponsible reporting by the Telegraph. This was always, inevitably, going to generate speculation - which means innocent names getting dragged through the mud.

And where's the public interest in saying that one of ~fifteen men might be a rapist?
especially when if its one of the other lot then there's only 2 possible players that fit the description. Just because its in North London though it doesn't necessarily have to be spurs or arsenal. it could be coincidence.

They did have training session with images of it that are on twitter/gettyimages. Their 2 29 year old WC bound players were absent though. If its an arsenal player we will find out who's missing from their friendlies

Obviously their forum mods are much less concerned about names because many are speculated.

whoever’s name is being wrongly slandered on their discussion thread should sue the fuck out of that virtual sewer.

Whoever it is (assuming they are charged and subsequently found guilty), it's not the fault of their club anyway.

I think it was said that Mail revealed the player's position, but even that seems to have no evidence/screenshots etc

What I would say if I was trending no 1 on Twitter and it wasn’t me. I think I’d want to make it completely clear it wasn’t me with a tweet by myself or my wife or my agent. Another player mentioned wife has on Instagram said it’s not him. But I don’t believe there’s been any denial from the main player mentioned.

Id be posting an IG of me with my significant other at a restaurant if I wasn't the one arrested today.

As I'm writing this, Arsenal haven't tweeted for about 9 hours since this news came out which is incredibly unlike them - I've got a feeling there will be a statement tonight / tomorrow morning.

New info from sun.

- happened on holiday in Mediterranean
- is one of best players at club
- had already begun training
- was due to fly out on tour next couple days

I think it’s pretty obvious now.

Player rumored to be involved is supposed to be enroute with the team to Germany. Either he shows up in pictures tomorrow, or speculation will force the team to react, I think.

But, if the player as simply been arrested and no charges filed, they may just simply say they are aware of the situation, and never identify the player.
