my new job has me so busy but saw the highlights

And to think arteta had martinelli rotting away for awhile

Don't do that. I'm sick and tired of this narrative with Martinelli and Tierney that Fans and Martin Ape Man Keown keep on pushing. Those 2 need protecting from themselves especially after coming back from injury. They only play at 1 pace and that fast and furious and get stuck in. If they aren't managed slowly back into things they will get injured again. Yeah Martinelli could of been used a bit more this season but any Arsenal fan telling me they ain't everytime when Martinelli or Tierney go down is a liar and I put that on grape.

Covid aside, the EPL should have had a winter break years ago. There's a reason why the players burn out with injuries so much.

This is why I say bush the league cup for years and make it an 18 team league. Those midweek slots could be used for PL fixtures. And then have the break between the FA Cup 3rd and 4th rounds.

From after the international break in November till the FA Cup 3rd it's like a third of the season takes place in those 6-7 week window.

how are things in england breh? From headlines its looking like its march 2020 again

Cases are the highest they've been since March 2020 but not as many people are dying, thankfully. No restrictions in place just yet but it's only a matter of time

I'm all for scrapping the league cup but reducing the league to 18 teams seems extreme

Couldn't we just copy the scheduling that the other European leagues have?

The pace and intensity of the PL it needs to be reduced to be 18 teams. Playing in the PL is like dog years on the athletes body. Also there are too many teams just happy to be in the PL. The league needs more jeopardy

Yeah, they shouls postpone the league for a few weeks.

Man Utd vs Brighton will probably be called off.

*It's called off. Should be behind closed doors again like Netherlands & Germany for a month or two.

 

[TobiOT]

It's a start.

They should of did what they did in 2020 and not add fans. if not just cancel the season until this shyt is managable again

The PL ain't doing shyt till the government forces them too because of the TV money. And the government atm is so under fire they frightened about doing another lockdown the economy has them shook.

Martinelli reminds me off Young Van Persie. He was always the main cause off his injuries

Operations “weather the storm” . I don’t think any economy could shoulder a full official lockdown

 

[Ukbrotha]

Another one bites the dust. Palace V Watford on Saturday postponed too.



Actually 4 more matches done now. 5 in total over the weekend.
