Obviously triggered by the fact that Newcastle successfully got their fixture at Southampton binned off because Callum Wilson and Saint-Maximin got crocked in their last game (SORRY - I meant "new covid cases in the squad"). Now in the re-arranged game, they'll be facing Newcastle + Trippier and whoever else they splurge on this month.
I don't normally have much sympathy for the bloke who collapsed to the turf in floods of tears and snot after his team had just scraped a lucky win over a manky injury-hit Liverpool in a ho-hum run of the mill mid-season fixture. But I think he has a very fair point here. Why should clubs who get a game postponed have the benefit of new January signings bolstering the team for the re-arranged fixture, when it should've been played last month ? For the integrity of the competition, the EPL should be taking heed and applying this rule tootsweet IMO.
But they won't.
