Benjamin Mendy | Joins Pogon Szczecin (p92)

F*ck him let him take us to court and spin it out for a decade , the tosser caused the issue with his antics in his private life , he made himself unavailable with his actions ,if he want to sue people for wages then go for the women who made the accusations and the criminal prosecution service.
But those individuals are probably potless so his agent/solicitor are followng the money, ,£10m ? i wouldnt give the c*nt £10.

There are some proper cunts on this thread.

The kid has had an absolute nightmare.

City need to pay him what he’s owed.

Not being a **** - he made himself unavailable to play by his lifestyle, there’s no way on Earth I’d get my shit wage or any compensation from losing my job if I was on remand for that long. Why should he be entitled to massive amounts of money when in fact he’s behaved like a **** instead of a professional athlete …….professional is the important thing here - a job like a modern footballer is so well paid for many reasons, he’s meant to be role model. I have a son and if ever grows up to act like this clown, I will disown him. He deserves nothing from our club…….. a small partial payment at best.

Your last sentence sums your head up mate.
 
Whatever we may think about Mendy's lifestyle, if we're being fair a good few other professional footballers live a very similar life, one of our own still playing springs to mind.
He was rightly suspended after being accused of a very serious crime but he was found not guilty, so whether some like it or not he will be entitled to wages that would have been paid to him during that period. Exactly how much will have to be thrashed out legally. Most people suspended are still paid during that period until whatever they are suspended for is resolved. Of course that is often for in house work related disciplinary measures, legal cases may be different.

Normal people who are suspended don't automatically get paid when suspended, it will depend on what is in the individuals contract.
 
Pay the bloke, if it's owed it's owed and so we can finally have done with this awful affair.

Not sure that’s true.

In my old company we had a guy who was basically caught red handed stealing. You can’t sack people on the spot so he had to be suspended while the company properly investigated it, conducted interviews etc.

We had to pay **** while all this went on, then he was obvs sacked after the HR ‘investigation’.
 
Pretty sure the law one way or the other will be clear on this. Not vindictive against city, just a realisation by Mendy that his career is over and despite the acquittal the whiff of rapey sex pest around him will probably make it difficult to start another career. He needs to maximise whatever is in the bank account because he's funding retirement at 30.
 
Football clubs don't have any control over a player's lifestyle and when a player signs for a club the contract is for a job of work, Yes some managers like to think they are in control of the player's lifestyle, but they are not and the only power to the manager is playing time that the player gets, I think the only thing a club can control is a player has to be ready to play and fit and turns up on time, other than that its the players own time and can do whatever he likes,

Manchester City does have a case under that rule and Because Mendy was not able to turn up and make himself available and ready to play, But again Mendy could say will you suspend me so how could I turn up,

Mendy and City will settle out of court and leave it in the past, Glad Mendy was proven innocent and can still have a football career, But the lad is as daft as a box of frogs and the lifestyle and people around him will quickly fade away when the money runs out

He's already signed for another club in France, so his career isn't over, he isn't retired.

Clubs do have some control over what players can do in their own time.
If a player wanted to go skiing for example, the club would say no.
There will also be rules around bringing the club into disrepute.
