maybe he’s good at FIFA.
Probs starts himself on the bench tho he is scared of trying to create things with his player on that too

Let United buy whatever right back they want if that means Ethan Laird becomes availible for cheap
He was crap mate. Miller played right back and he didn't go at him once.
I share your experience, and reached the same conclusion.
1) those events needing to proven, rather than merely alleged? Or is an allegation alone enough? How would YOU react if your employer wanted to include a clause in your contract allowing them to fire you if you were accused of a criminal offence, regardless of whether you had actually been arrested, charged or convicted for it? If you think that's ok, give me your employer's phone number so I can accuse you of stealing my bag of jelly babies (a criminal offence under S.1 Theft Act) and see you suspended without pay immediately.
2) Which is it? Nobody really knows? Or Everton has the right to suspend him without pay?
as to your final paragraph, let's start at the end and work back:
Has he been convicted? No, because that would require being charged, and tried.
Has he been charged? Not to my knowledge. Do you know different?
Has he been arrested? Not to my knowledge. Possibly. Do you know for certain?
Is he an "employee at will"? Do you know what that means, and how it differs from a normal employee's status?
Look, I'm not defending the guy. But he does have a right to due process. Part of that due process would be that he can't be denied a wage SOLELY due to an allegation of wrongdoing. I get that you feel very strongly about this, perhaps due to the nature of the allegation. But I simply don't see how you can so confidently assert that the Club has a right to suspend him without pay when, by your own admission, you have no experience of Employment Law or Contract Law and you haven't got access to the wording of his contract. Whilst I too have not seen his contract, I do have experience in these areas of law (somewhat dated now, granted) and the Law does not ordinarily allow an employer to suspend someone on no pay on the basis of an unproven allegation.
This.
We are really lacking in depth, all across the park. We have a lot of players on the payroll who simply aren't good enough to contribute at PL level with any reliable consistency, which is terrifying when you think of the sheer volume of dead wood that has been tossed away in the last two or three summers.
Any injury to Doucouré or Allan would absolutely cripple us - just like they did last year. We need a decent 3rd CM, to allow for a regular rotation. If we have created the wiggle room to spend the money, I'd love to see us go for Kalvin Phillips in January (almost zero chance, I know) or, if we have to wait until the summer, McTominay from Utd. Given the financial straits we appear to be in however it will almost certainly have to be a loan, in which case a younger player with an option to buy would be a better move - one of the many names previously bandied about from the French League perhaps, someone with some genuine creativity to their game. Whatever we do in January re CM, we also need to buy another one in the summer because that's when Delph goes and his wages come off the books.
Not going to dwell on RB. We need a new one, that's it. Coleman can still do an occasional job in a rotation, but he's running on fumes.
We also need someone to rotate with Townsend on the right - there's simply no option in the squad to play in that area if he is injured. Ideally a younger player comes in with a view to genuinely challenging for the starting spot, and I say that as someone who has been impressed with Townsend thus far.
What's the next injury issue with G'bamin, toothache to a spot on his arse?, which rules him out for a month?

United dont seem to want to sell us players thesedays
Dumfries hasnt hit the ground running at Inter either
Id like to see us go after the low fee and out of contract players again...RB + CB + CM can be sorted next season with a precontract agreement in Jan or a low cost signing.
Any real cash we have we spend on one top player at right wing. A real gamechanger.

Just to give the lad a bit of a break... Dental abcesses can be serious. I doubt this is him saying "gaffer, I can't play because I've got toothache". He will have been advised by the medical team that he can't play.

I'd question that "all players" look like they are running in treacle without a preseason. But let's just say his treacle has been in the fridge.
