AKCJ Posted 8 November 2020 Share Posted 8 November 2020 1 hour ago, Matt said: The crux of the point here is why are pointless, glorified friendly (1 of the 3 of them being literally a friendly) international games being played at a time where Europe is largely on lockdown and/or travel restrictions are in place. While i'm at it i'll bring the 3rd game into question - There were never 3 games during an international break in normal times, obviously 3 games were planned before any of this hit but to have 3 games in the current climate is beyond me. New Zealand pulled out so was there any need to replace them just to make up a 3rd game. I understand that by having this opinion it brings Champions League and Europa League games also into question but so be it. Clubs can keep their eyes on their players with regular testing, keeping their players in a bit of a bubble. Sending them away to mix with hundreds of other people all for them to potentially bring the virus back into the bubbles of their clubs is potentially seriously damaging. I don't necessarily think that Champions League and Europe League games and absolutely essential, but they're far more competitive than these international friendlies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely they are tested frequently to ensure they can continue as normal? What's the point of him testing negative several times and still having to self-isolate?

Agree club competitions are controlled by the club bubbles, sure their meeting other teams on the pitch during a game but with Internationals there's no bubbles players are lodging, training and playing together mixing bubbles. It's madness and unnecessary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because there’s a new strain of COVID in Denmark that they are really worried about getting out and ruining vaccine efforts. They are so concerned that there are no exemptions. If you go to Denmark you can’t come back unless your a uk resident where you have to isolate for 14 days regardless of testing. It would only take one mistake with one of the players coming back from Denmark for this to turn into a disaster for the country. Best course of action for me would be to just not release kasper for international duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri and Dennis won’t be subject to the quarantine rules as they won’t have to go from Denmark to England potentially.

IF the Danish team can freely move to Belgium then Kasper isn't coming back from Denmark he will be travelling back from Belgium, well you'd assume so at least... there is the potential loophole for us to bypass the 'restrictions'.
