In a lot of ways, having matches cancelled in this period is actually a big advantage. You have to make it up later, of course, but its easier to figure out how to play one extra midweek in April than to figure out how to play three matches in five days with a depleted squad.Wolves will have 9 days between matches when they play Arsenal on the 28th.
Arsenal will have about 36 hours.
Yeah, as long as guys aren't actually getting REALLY sick and getting long term damage, this definitely feels like it tips the scales in favor of the team with the outbreak. Especially in cases where they don't have European football.In a lot of ways, having matches cancelled in this period is actually a big advantage.

I think Arteta will need to just rotate nearly the entire team and hope for the best. The thing you really don't want to do is overplay anybody, get them injured, and just make the problem worse.
Well, some semblance of fairness has been restored.View: https://twitter.com/sayantan_01/status/1474013517946654720?s=20
If Leeds and Everton end up a point off for a European place (or for the drop as seems more likely at the moment for both sadly) how is this not a huge issue at season's end?
Agreed. This is so, so stupid.It's a mess. Shut it down for a month.
Probably not as good as you'd hoped.Looked up to see whether there were any matches today, and other than a few Eredevisie matches it's pretty slim. However, those Dutch matches include PSV vs. Go Ahead Eagles. There's got to be a decent story behind that club name!
Wait, so this game isn't cancelled?Palace's Starting XI looks pretty strong to me...

sounds like they tried to convince PL that Viera was their most important player (probably true)Wait, so this game isn't cancelled?
They are.Marc albrighton and Luke thomas as a full-backs...City should have fun
This got uncompetitive in a hurry.Zaha saw Palace were 2-0 down and decided to take the rest of the match off.
Honestly don’t even think it was that much of a flop by Sanchez. What a stupid clear push while on a yellow.File this under me not understanding the rules…
Was that always legal by Moura? He came over the back and leveled Anderson on that goal.
Fake edit: Dumb by Zaha…brutal flop but you can’t do that while on a yellow
I was wondering about this too. Often that’s given as a foul but Anderson didn’t help his cause by turtling and not trying to play the ball.File this under me not understanding the rules…

he looked like he was just waiting for the ball rather than getting up for it and it obviously cost him…that said there seemed to be no mention or complaint about Moura when that seemed similar to others I’ve seen called.I was wondering about this too.

IIRC it was the Chelsea habit of swarming refs to harass them into favourable decisions that lead to the PL instituting rules against the practice.Yes. Yes they do.
True, although fairness requires pointing out United had been doing it for years before that.IIRC it was the Chelsea habit of swarming refs to harass them into favourable decisions that lead to the PL instituting rules against the practice.
following the template by captaining CR7 was...frustratingI just checked in, needing a strong showing from Utd assets in both fantasy league. WT actual F???
