That's not magically going to create more days in the week.

I'm presuming there's some PL rule that means you can't play more than (say) 2 games a week?
I’m fairly certain teams have played 3 games in a week before now. I can see, for example, a run of Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday being required in the last week of the season if we make it to the Fa cup and Champions league final - I certainly wouldn’t be complaining though!

I would if we ended up winning none of them as a result...

That would be after the FA Cup anyway, which would be the Saturday match.
If we are in a position to win the quad by that point, which is the only circumstance that kind of congestion would occur in the last week, then I would sincerely hope we weren’t in a position of needed 9 points from those 3 games. Doesn’t look that way at the moment anyway. I think some undue pessimism in this thread.
 
Already a thread exists here with calendar ...

TV Picks for March and the postponed games slots should be out this week. Anyone's guess really but I expect them to announce between now and Friday this week.
 
Although that's a thought, Pep strongly believes in the maintenance of the integrity of the league competition. Weaker, yes but we won't be rolling the EDS out for a league game.
He can be a bit obsessive when it comes to winning games.
Hopefully he has seen the way the TV companies look after the Rags & Dippers, when it comes to scheduling matches before champions league games, whilst fucking us around. And thinks bugger it, I’m keeping the players I have relied on fresh for the big games.
 
No one knows when they'll announce either of them. But common sense would suggest that it should be this week alongside the TV picks for March and then FA Cup QFs might be finalized a day or two after that.

Looking at the past dates on how they have announced for each month so far this season, I'd guess any of the three days Wed, Thu or Fri this week around 4pm is very likely.
Behave :)

We don't have to let anyone go to a country on the red list so that's the Portuguese and South American contingents out anyway, Brazil and Argentina won't have any senior players for this break as none of them are based domestically, it's just brain dead to have it.

Talking of International Break, here’s Pep’s take on it from the Everton pre-match presser ...



 
Do we really need a fucking break for international friendlies this season of all seasons when half the foreign players won't even be allowed to travel and half the games will end up getting postponed for covid reasons? Ridiculous, if they need warm up games play them when the seasons over.
No.
 
i keep reading klopp wasnt allowed back for the funeral, i deal with planes from Germany everyday and they aren't stopping people travelling there if its essential.
You can travel, but you need to quarantine, and that is the issue, some countries are not letting people in at all unless they are citizens of that country, or it's essential travel. See the South African lad who's just arrived via Qatar to start a new job, obviously that is in the "essential travel" bracket, so the media using the word "banned" is a load of rubbish.
 
PL announced that all fixtures will continue to be available to watch live in the UK earlier today, I wonder if the March fixtures will be announced today as well (last month confirmation of all February fixtures being shown live in the UK and the February broadcast picks were announced on the same day).
 

Premier League Statement

League confirms all fixtures will be made available to watch live in the UK until the return of fans


The Premier League today confirmed all fixtures for the 2020/21 season will continue to be made available to fans to watch live in the UK. This arrangement will be extended until Government guidance permits supporters to return to stadiums.

All matches will be shown via existing broadcast partners Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime Video and BBC, who continue to work with us to deliver these additional matches while stadiums are missing the supporters who are such an integral part of the game.

Details of broadcast selections for March and the rearrangement of previously postponed matches will be announced in due course.

The Premier League and its clubs remain committed to an accessible solution for fans. The UK live broadcast arrangements will be reviewed in consultation with clubs and in line with any decisions made by Government regarding the return of spectators to stadiums.

Yes, last time they came out at 4pm (a couple of hours after the announcement of all Feb on TV), I expect them to be out today or tomorrow (or max this week) as they have also just sorted the FA Cup Quarters (which are in March) earlier in the week so all signs point to that.

Pep has slipped it pre-Everton today ... Wolves and Saints coming in early March in those two free mid-weeks around the derby. I think they’ll announce March games including those postponed ones tomorrow ...
