Ederson and Jesus cleared to play (Pg 63)

[lancs blue]

Jesus playing brilliantly and a miss but Carson instead of Ederson is a match-losing problem.

If it's possible I'd recall Bazunu from Portsmouth, at least he's been playing regularly.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

If we have to start Carson, we'll be very lucky not to lose.

Fucking disgrace FIFA are.

 

[mcfcsamm]

This is all a mess… didn’t the brazilian health authorities stop the argentinian PL players from playing!?!?

 

[willipp]

Which rags work for FIFA?

Someone must be as Fred is banned as well so defo helps them out.

 

[mat]

According to Slimey Stone were going to fight it. So expect him to accuse Abu Dhabi of bribing the Brazilian FA if we overturn it.

 

[waspish]

Just retire then ask to come back if your good enough they’ll want you back! FIFA has to much power the players should have all the power! Need to have a world player organisation where the players dictate!

Saves Ole making the decision of who's going to be replaced by Rapey Ron on Saturday.

 

[eastmanc]

Brazil coming over as being really petty. They know that they are on the red list in the UK and they didn’t want Argentina fielding UK based players. They can’t have both ways.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Hahaha what a farce.

It's so nonsensical that I can't even be angry about it.

Bet Carson is buzzing. I've got faith.

 

[Semper aggressus]

According to Slimey Stone were going to fight it. So expect him to accuse Abu Dhabi of bribing the Brazilian FA if we overturn it.

I hope we do.

Personally I don‘t care what we get accused of as long as the outcome is whatever is best for City. Even if that means we do actually bribe them! fifa is corrupt anyway, so who cares.

 

[Blue tube]

Fifa havent got any authority over us unless we play in their competition have they?

 

[bellsouth]

So FIFA can dictate who plays in an English competition?

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

The man, the myth, the legend, the goat. Big Scott Carson's time to shine. Where is this lad's statue.

 

[sd33]

 

[waspish]

You could see this coming thing with Brazilian players they love playing for there international games so they will never quit and abide by the rules!

 

[discopop]

Seeing as we get accused of lawyering up quite frequently I presume we will release the hounds again.

 

[lancs blue]

So FIFA can dictate who plays in an English competition?

Yes, that rule has always been there.

 

[asahartford1]

I am sure FIFA will see sense and make the right decisions. With Infantino at the helm and with the experience of Wenger to draw upon they won't make the mistake of banning players who would have been banned if they had travelled and banned on their return, by not travelling and then banning them, would they ?

They used to drown would be witches, and hang them if they survived the drowning.

 

[mike1923]

They’re being banned for not turning up to a game they wouldn’t have been allowed to play in anyway cos they’d have had to be in isolation for two weeks when they got to Brazil?

 

[mat]

So FIFA can dictate who plays in an English competition?

The rule was brought in to stop big clubs withdrawing players with fake injuries from international duty who then play for their respective clubs straight after (Ryan Giggs Rule).

However it has been rarely instigated.

A global pandemic should be seen as a reason not to enforce it.
