Nice! I will be able to see both of those.

From what I have seen it's 22nd February first leg. Which is good for us considering CWC final in Abu Dhabi is on February 12th.

Yup. Feb 22 it is.

Abu Dhabi is 4h time difference to London, so still a bitch but manageable. If everything works out fine and no postponed games with covid, we will have a full week to prepare for Crystal palace which is almost a homegame on the 19th.

also there is a blank in the schedule just before the cwc between 23rd Jan and 9th Feb so i guess there will be a fa cup or league cup weekend in between?

That is two and a half weeks actually because now teams have break in winter. Just before CWC on weekend 5th-6th February we will have 4th round FA Cup tho. Which is good thing to get momentum after the break. Play half first team players there and other half in semi final CWC so they are ready for final where we should go full strength.

We already have 2 PL games postponed because of CWC. If we get to the Carabao Cup final game against Leicester will also be postponed. And QF, semi final and final of FA Cup are also on the dates when we have PL games.

So if we go all the way in all comps it will be very tricky to find free dates for postponed PL games.

Looks like we might not have an issue playing in Lille in March.

"From Feb. 15, anyone who is not vaccinated against the coronavirus will need to show proof they tested positive for COVID-19 within the previous four months — down from the current six-month window — in order to enter sports venues in France."

We don't know exactly who is vaccinated and who is not but most/all of the players tested positive in December.

those fucking cunts need to fucking take the goddamn jab

Its laughable that players are okay taking umpteen amounts of pain medication and injections to play through trauma, or risking their body in physical play.

But one vaccine that could give at most half a day worth of chills? Oh no. That's going too far.
