at least EFL gave us a bye after the orient virus incident. its a miracle if the squad manages to dodge the virus after that and trips to northern macedonia and israel

edit: oh the maccabi game is at home, nice

It’s outrageous that Orient have been kicked out.
That’s setting quite the precedent.

Didnt they decide to play a game despite several players showing symptoms. Think that is reason enough.

Yeah, seriously **** Orient on this one. They played against Mansfield at the weekend despite 9 players coming down with a mystery "bug", that somehow no one at the club considered might be covid, putting Mansfield's players and staff at risk.

They were then prepared to do the same to Spurs on Tuesday until we stepped in and paid for them to be tested.

Having a "mystery bug", and still playing, should result in a much harsher punishment than just banned from the who gives a **** cup.

Incentivising clubs to not test/report results seems like maybe not the best idea but yeah if they've been as irresponsible as it seems just getting kicked out the cup seems very lenient. Would have to imagine lawsuits are coming if anyone at Mansfield even gets a sniffle.

It’s actually shocking that a bigger deal isn’t being made of this.

Have Mansfield confirmed that all players are in the clear? Kind of surprising if that’s the case but probably just drives home the relatively lower risk of contracting it outdoors

I've heard of working from home but this is taking the piss.

Can we not get someone else to do it instead. How about Klopp?

Jesus appears to be out and injured for City. Pep rotation gets even shorter.

doesnt make sense at first glance, i think pep runs sterling up top w foden and mahrez and kdb mid. delap prob plays 10-15 minutes if the game is a blowout

I agree, but the odd point and the odd goal is what 4.5m forwards are for. Ideal money saving bench sitters.

Kind of interesting that whoscored had an article today saying Arsenal should prioritize Partey over Aouar while statsbomb thinks the exact opposite.

Never heard of this kid before, but he looks like an amalgam of Kroos, Ozil and KDB. World class genes.

Haha, I went to school with this guy's son. Notorious gambler. A semi-interesting case, but surely he doesn't stand a chance in hell of getting a refund? Thoughts?
