PL 2021/22 Season

[SB]

First proper, extended pre-season for them both, I think? Finger's crossed, it will have done them the world of good.

Naby is off to a good start. 1 match & no injuries

[Scratch]

Put in a good shift did Naby, would like to see him in a midfield alongside Thiago and Fabinho, I think he will shine.

I love his pressing game but I’d still love to see the dribbling version of Naby that we thought we were buying.

This needs to have other things factored in such as our injuries but still interesting

Spurs do better without the booing. City aren't affected but benefit from their opponents doing worse

Alisson Becker, Roberto Firmino and Fabinho have all been included in the Selecao squad for their latest round of World Cup qualifiers in September.


With the South American programme having been disrupted heavily by the coronavirus pandemic, Brazil will play three games in eight days as they seek to catch up on lost fixtures.

FFS.

Leeds away will be a tough game too, although at least it's a Sunday and at least there isn't too far to travel.

We'll lose them 3 for the utd game apparently due to quarantine.

Why would they need to quarantine for that game?

It was some article from a paper online. Probably click bait and I didn't click.

It must have been. United match doesn't follow an international and the players shouldn't have to quarantine anyway providing they test negative.

I saw that there was an article in the Mail about that, but from looking at fixtures Brazil's last game is 12th October, As Brazil is a red list country there is a 10 day quarantine (I assume that this also applies to pro athletes) which means if they flew back on 13th quarantine would be over by 23rd, Man Utd game is 24th so should be fine if we were prepared to play them having had no training (with the team). They would also miss the Watford game in September.

I don't think the quarantine applies to elite athletes.

does that mean Fred will still have to quarantine then?

There were stories earlier in the year saying that they did, and that's why clubs didn't have to release them in Feb/March. I don't know if the rules have changed.
