    International football annoys me so back to the real stuff this weekend. Busy week ahead and if we were guaranteed 2 wins and 1 loss this week then this and the united game are the ones to win.

    with Brazil playing Friday morning and Ali and fab most likely flying straight to Madrid to avoid quarantine kelleher should start in goal with a midfield 3 of hendo, Jones and keita. Hopefully Trent and Thiago are back in the squad and jotas injury isn’t too bad.

    I hope Kelleher doesn’t get injured tonight when he has a chance of a start on Saturday.

    It’s good he’s playing tonight . Get rid of any rustiness from lack of game time before the weekend.

    So let me know if I am right...

    We are definitely without Alisson and Fab who are going straight to Madrid (how does that work with the quarantine stuff?)

    Maybe's then are Jota, Trent, Thiago? Whats Mane's deal? Was just listening to Redmen TV, and supposedly he can play against Watford but not against Atletico. Anyone else in this boat?

    Anyone else I am forgetting about?

    ...oh and international football can fuck right off!!

    Is Alisson and Fab 100% ruled out due to short time from coming back or for Covid rules?

    It’s a 10 day quarantine if they come straight back meaning the could play at Watford but couldn’t travel for Madrid game so with the sort turn around after the Brazil game they’re be better off going to Madrid

    I thought they agreed double jabbed players could kind of self quarantine within a football bubble?

    My understanding was the lads will miss Watford because they're back from the other side of the world the day before and will be bolloxed.

    They quarantine and can train once a day but wouldn’t be able to travel. If they go straight to Madrid they can play that game. I’m basing my info from redmen tv so who knows. I think it’s the reason mane can’t travel to Madrid but can play against Watford .

    To quote or maybe misquote a previous manager I wish Claudio all the best after Saturday.

    There was reports yesterday that Liverpool and both Manchester clubs have put on a private plane to get the Brazilians and Cavani back after the game tonite. But watching SSN this morning Fabinho has suggested him and Alisson are going straight to Madrid where the families have been holidaying the past week.

    We need them for Madrid with mane being out so it makes sense if they go straight there.

    On a positive note, I've just read Henderson played at DM 12 times last season and we won 9 and drew 3.

    Going to try guess the team

    kelleher
    Trent matip virg Robbo
    Milner hendo jones
    Salah Bobby mane

    I went with Milner over keita as naby played 3 times for his country and Millie had 2 weeks off.
    Bobby has been training for 2 week, hasn’t been away and jota with that injury I’d rest him for this. I know he’s fit but I want him fully firing for the united game.

    Alison didn’t play last night for Brazil but Fabinho played around 70 mins .


    From Fabinho last night:

    "I believe that match against Watford will be very hard for us, I don't think we will play. Neither Alisson or myself," he told reporters.

    "The match against Uruguay will be Friday overnight here (in the UK) and the match against Watford will be at half past noon.

    "With all of what is involved, including travel, I don't know how much time we will have between one game and the other.

    "I believe that we won't be playing.

    "We will also need to quarantine, but the club is still studying whether it is better to go straight to Spain to play Atletico and quarantine there, without staying in a hotel in England."
