If anyone is obtuse it is you. You find fault with nearly every post I make.

I take no issue with you, however, you appear to have to put me down at every opportunity, without good reason. Why I have no idea. We all differ in opinions, hopefully going forward you are able to accept that and gracefully leave it there.
I'm not sure that football player contracts are employment contracts. They are more like independent contractor contracts where the contract is for specific period of time for specific services. You can build into those contracts terms that you might not otherwise get away with in an employment contract. Even if they are employment contracts, I would like to bet that the clubs and the players both cover off any of these possibilities with wording such as "you will play on whatever team in our system we ask you to play on and train with whichever group we ask you to train with as long as we still keep paying you your contractual payments" otherwise every time a player gets dropped from the first team he could walk away and play for another team on the basis of constructive dismissal (or breach of contract) and you just do not see that happen.
