Benjamin Mendy - City lose case and Mendy awarded £11m in back pay (p168)

Maybe he can , but publicly bashing your team
mates is acting like looser

He's not bashing them.
They were at his parties.
They were called as witnesses

United sacked Ronaldo for breach of contract and that was just for telling the truth about how shit they are.

Mendy had been fined twice before for turning up late to training and was in breach for his behaviours, alone.

One such report had him organising escort girls flying in from Italy to attend a party at Mere Golf and Country.

He's a fucking dog.

Snoop..

No bitterness from me. I want City to act in a lawful way. If they did. Great. If they didn't. Hands up and pay the lad.

All true but it depends what it says in his contract. The reason so few of these cases go to tribunals is that employment law usual works in the worker's favour. The complication will not be his wages though but his appearance money. Let's wait and see what happens.

What are you talking about?
If you are unable to turn up for work and unable to play you cannot earn an appearance fee.

Considering the bad publicity it may generate (is generating, thanks to him), I would assume City think they have and he’s trying it on. As mentioned before this will likely be down to different interpretations of the wording in his contract.

I bet he’s not got much money now.

Got a net worth of 12 million dollars apparently so not potless.

If you are unable to turn up for work and unable to play you cannot earn an appearance fee.

For example, if the contract says "if city win the premier league then you'll get paid £1 million". Would you be entitled to that payment and would you fight for it? Yes you bloody would. So it's all down to wordings in the contract and interpretation of those words. He has a case otherwise he wouldn't bother fighting for it, whether that case is strong enough no one knows.

Same, if a court says he’s entitled to the money, pay the man.

If not, he’s shit out of luck.

Not my money, not at the club any more, not my problem!

I am suggesting City will probably have to pay up his basic salary but the argument will be over things in the contract like bonuses etc etc. We have no idea what's in his contract so we can't predict the outcome at this point.
