Argentina's last game is 10/09, so by the time he's back he'll miss Chelsea, Everton and Chelsea (LC) through Quarantine, he'd be available for Man Utd, but would likely only have about 1 day training after 10 sat in a hotel room, then back for Spurs, but then there's another international break so it's the same shit again, missing Wolves and Arsenal through quarantine and barely any training before West Ham and Southampton, another international break where he'd miss Brighton and Palace, potentially Man City. So at least 7 through quarantine, but possibly up to 12 plus any more League Cup games due to lack of match fitness and about 20-ish days missed training. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the red list sticks around in to 2022, he also misses Leeds and Newcastle in February, and Wolves and Spurs in April. Though I imagine it will be lifted by then.

Tomaszk Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 That would be a disaster. They're more likely to go if there's two of them as well. Back each other up a bit. Our best player and our record signing. You couldn't make it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted August 27, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 27, 2021 aside from a 'football for all' twitter account, has anyone remotely reputable reported this? this isn't against the 'wishes of the club'. this would be defying the premier league's rule. i call complete and utter BS.........in fact it deserves a gif 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more important than Champions League for a lot of these guys I was thinking exactly this the other day. Martinez becoming number one for Argentina is massive for him.

Rightdm00 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Does the quarantine length/requirement change if he has been vaccinated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 "The Project" could take a big dent because of this. Very disruptive. There will have to be some serious discussions/negotiations between club, players and national team managers I should think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Buendia shouldn't be *too* much of a miss with Traore, Bailey and Watkins all coming back but yeah we'll really miss Martinez. Tbf Steer isn't terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I find it hilarious how quick some of our fans are to believe any negative news. When it’s potential good news the same people say it must be bullshit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Random Twitter user says we are signing a top player - pure bullshit.
