Arsenal requested postponement for their game against Spurs. 

Note they are missing the same amount of players as we have when we faced Wolves. 

And it has been postponed.

The rules are a fucking joke at this point. They were created to help clubs if there's a COVID outbreak but now, clubs are just abusing it whenever they have injuries, players away at AFCON etc.

Arsenal supposedly have only ONE positive case and the rest of their absentees are due to injuries, suspensions and players away at AFCON and now, they have got the fixture postponed.

''With Arsenal having fewer than the required number of players available for the match (13 outfield players and one goalkeeper), the Board accepted the club’s application. The decision is a result of a combination of COVID-19, existing and recent injuries and players on international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations. All clubs are able to apply for a postponement if COVID-19 infections are a factor in their request''

But there should be a certain amount of covid cases surely! Becoming a bit naughty now

I have to say Joao pedro is one of my favourite non-Chelsea, non-Chelsea-target players in the league. He is technically super clean, runs and presses his ass off all game, is always an outlet for a hopeless attack and now comes in clutch when they need him. Just needs to get a little better with his consistency and end product and he can be a hit. Just 20 y.o. still. Probably not Chelsea material but i hope he stays in the league if watford go down.

The rules are silly..so if they didn't have a covid case it would've gone ahead but because they have one it all counts into the ever changing rules? There has to be a line somewhere 

Think it depends on how much they moan and scream at the FA -and then of course who the decision makers support...
