Can see both sides if I'm honest.
McBurnie seems a **** but wouldn't be the first footballer to fall into that description.
At the same time any idiot thinks that because somebody is famous they can give people abuse and film them with no comeback.
I may be wrong but watching that footage, mcburnie appears to punch, chest knee and assault what i believe looks like a teenager. Regardless if the people are filming and taunting, that is not the way to react.
Even more so if the person is under 18.
Let's be honest he is more than a little odd.
Ginger rage
Still missed the phone.
the lad doesnt look old at all
a professional footballer should be ashamed to be caught up in that
He'll have to polish up his people skills when dropping off and picking the kids from Howells School .

"Man arrested after Sheffield United’s Oli McBurnie ‘street bust-up video’ goes viral
A man has been arrested after a video appearing to show Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie in a street bust up went viral.
The 24 second clip, filmed in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, appears to show Sheffield United striker McBurnie involved in a brawl with 21-year-old insurance broker Elliott Wright, 21. It is claimed that the Scottish international was goaded about Sheffield United’s relegation from the Premier League before violence flared.
A man is seen stamping on a mobile phone, which was dropped to the ground during the incident."
Slap on the wrist and a fine or a custodial awaiting for the mad bastard??
Well thats clearly assault and depending on the injuries to the victim could be ABH
It may be that the victim doesn't want to press charges however the police may
Silly sod
McBurnie seems a bit of a tool but you could also say why should anyone just have to ignore someone shouting unsolicited abuse at them on the street, if it was a 16 year old kid I'd be saying rise above it but the guy was only 3 years younger than him. Not saying violence is ok but don't act like a prick to strangers is a good general rule to live by if you don't want to get a slap
That's less than a 30 second clip, how do you know what happened leading up to it? I don't like Oli McBurnie and I don't think people should be going round getting physical and stamping on phones and stuff but you know what's a sure fire way of not getting roughed up or your phone stamped on? Not being all brave with your mates and giving someone you don't know shit and filming it so you can put it on facebook to show everyone what a legend you are.
Can't believe I'm sticking up for Oli McBurnie but I've got limited sympathy for people who set out to wind someone up then cry when there's consequences
Have you seen some of the abhorrent racist comments black players get either on social media or shouted at in the street these days? Real, horrible, nasty and personal racist abuse... and do they react by smashing people up? No they don't, although in my opinion I would understand if they did.
And yet Oli feels the need to go and assault a 21 year old which, based on that clip and other reports was nothing more than a childish little squirt giving it some. The lad was a bit childish but if Oli gets so triggered by a little prick like that god help him. Talk about a disproportionate response.
Unless you are an out and out superstar, you need to be squeeky clean these days and if I was an owner of a football club, I wouldn't want the likes of McBurnie representing my club.
Bloke looks and acts like a tramp.
Who's racially abusing black players in the street? Confused why you've even brought that up. Same with social media comments, there's no way a player can physically respond to someone sending him a racist DM or comment.
Harass anyone by filming and verbally abusing them long enough and you'd be fortunate if they just walked away and ignored you. Oli should know better but the man behind the camera should too.
