Let's tear up their contracts then and let another club have this problem....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
est1874 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Well Emi's just posted an Instagram story (not referencing the situation), so I can only assume he's not in any kind of mad interrogation at least...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I bet we let them leave in October too. Don't see Liverpool and others bending over do you. We are a soft touch as a club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe isolation on return to the UK will be a problem in October assuming they are double jabbed? Not that I can be arsed to keep up with the rules, but I am sure I heard this somewhere buried in the bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of South Americans are extremely patriotic, a lot more than the majority here. Representing your country is the highest honour you can have. Emi Martinez sighted when signing for us, he wants to be Argentinas number 1. He is, he wants to stay there. The problem lies with Fifa who knew this could happen, but pretty much washed their hands of the whole thing. The players can't turn their country down. Fifa and the head coach know this. The Brazilians at Liverpool seemed ok doing so 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I have no concrete proof I genuinely think the manager threatened to never call them up again. You can tell he is that kind of word removed from his interviews.
