Well Zinchenko has the same problem with decison-making. I understand your point though. It was Ron Atkinson who infamously abused the "lazy" phrase and it (deservedly in my view) cost him his media career.

Didn't Bo Jangles add a racial slur suffix after the word lazy and that is why the shit hit the fan and rightly so. The light bulb headed Sunny D overdosing comb over dinosaur.
 
Four of the women's team have tested positive now. Doesn't sound like we have the outbreak at the CFA under control.
 
Terrible stuff. Looks like it has really spread and difficult to control it now at the CFA? Hope thats not the case.

I think in general I am a lazy person but I am not black.

Some others in my family don't regard me as lazy and some others I know do regard me as lazy.

I think Wilfred Zaha is easily riled on the pitch and is often done so by both black and white players.

I also think there are lazy players in the premiership who are white.

You don't need to confuse your opinion of a person's traits on the football field and make it an issue of colour.

It is perhaps best to describe the performance of the player as lazy and refer to him by name.

In any case the lack of expending energy at all times to ones maximum is never one I considered confined to individuals of a particular skin colour or ethnicity to the exclusion of all others.

Of course. People are lazy, I agree.
The issue is when you call a black player lazy, you might be unconsciously doing so through bias. This is being highlighted at the moment and I think it's worth giving it some thought about how it makes black players feel if it's becoming a stereotype.

I hate the PC stuff normally but someone highlighted it to me recently and I think I've fallen into this at times.

The womens team are a completely separate bubble, have separate areas at the CFA and have been on a mid season winter break. Much more likely they got it from outside tbh

Separate bubble info seems interesting...some coincidence that

Did the CFA get a deep clean when the Everton game was called off?

Supposedly.

I expect the women have only just returned to training ahead of next weekends game, so they'll have been tested on return, so most likely caught it outside the CFA.

Hopefully Steph Haughton isn't one, because her husband has MND, and that would be a serious risk for him.
