Allison, Fabinho and Firmino to miss the Utd game after the international break. Quarantine.

Isn't it only the Leeds game? If they came back to England straight away they could realistically play a part.

Dont have to quarantine if double jabbed after tomorrow.

Apparently so. Not good if it does turn out to be true.

Pretty sure that Brazil is red listed, so they’d have to quarantine. Can’t even refuse to send them, thanks to FIFA. The thought of to Old Toilet without Alisson and Fabinho fills me with dread.

{Ed0666's Note - that’s why we bought Sanchez…oh wait 😱😢

They will not be allowed to attend their internationals under FIFA C.V. rules so it will not be an issue. Jota will be alright because Portugal has switched their game to Italy but we have 4 other players impacted, including Naby playing in Guinea. Arsenal has 4 players impacted, City has 5, Tottenham has 4 and Everton has 5. I think most bosses will take the FIFA C.V. Rules option to not allow their players to go.

Yes but it is for amber listed and those pinged. can't see it being allowed that we can be expected to be without 3 starting players due to this there will be changes even it that means a rescheduled date for the match.

And even worse news is that they will be w/ o Fred!

Ed0666, Sanches have been injured anyway…oh wait!

{Ed0666's Note - yes I know I was being ironic.

Reynard, FIFA have changed the rules apparently. So clubs can’t withhold players attending.

VVVV - That's outrageous! It shouldn't be changed before the end of this year. If this is correct then I'd get a ruling from the government here to see if professional international players can receive a quarantine exemption based upon daily testing for the same period.

Is this correct Ed’s?

{Ed002's Note - Players returning from Red List countries have to follow the guidance of the country they are returning to. Right now it would be yes.}

Scrap international games. Answer right there. Love final tournament football. Can live without it if damages bread and butter club football.

All of them can’t get in the Brazilian team. I am sure there is a way not to send them.

Suppose the players want to go?

We always seem to play them lot after an international break!


21.) 16 Aug 2021

Should we scrap the Champions League and world super cup? Or does that not count as international football?


22.) 16 Aug 2021

Surely there should be a caveat in the FIFA rules for this very scenario, why should club teams who pay the players wages be missing players for important games because of international games in the midst of a C.V., it’s ludicrous!

Just play the internationals on FIFA 21. Or Zoom. Or not att all.
