[Albion] Arsenal players self-isolating?

[n1 gull]

Will our game get called off?
It says on the news a number of Arsenal players met the Olympiacos owner and are now self-isolating?

I thought that then read the story and seems to have been going on for a while.

In fact the players and staff isolation period of 14 days ends Friday and would appear they have shown no signs of Coronavirus.

I hope all effected are well, but, if our game does go ahead, then this will surely have disrupted their preparations.

West Ham players will have to be isolated, at least until when the Arsenal players from last Saturday's game get the all clear.

Well according to the BBC article I read the players in question have already been in isolation and it ends Friday ?

I’m not sure that’s true. I think you only self isolate if you’ve been in contact with someone with Coronavirus, not just someone who’s self isolating as a precaution.

From the way I read it, Arsenal only yesterday were made aware the Olympiacos owner had the virus. The game was 13 days ago including today , so to comply with the 14 day period, they need to self isolate ) although they haven’t previously as they won’t aware ) until Friday when they return to training. So in effect the Arsenal players will miss two days training.

Only if Arsenal players were showing symptoms, which I assume is not the case.

This thread is basically the same as the one about Arsenal’s game being called off

Game off tonight with City tonight because some of them were “close” to the Olympiakos owner a couple of weeks ago.

Yet Olympiakos are playing Wolves tomorrow.

Wtf is that all about?

Wolves are not happy about it. I suppose different countries have different procedures for who should self isolate.

This thread illustrates that:
-- some on NSC are up-to-speed with current guidance on COVID-19, and some aren't
-- those that aren't either need to refer to relevant media that provide accurate information, or government/NHS outputs, or improve their ability to process quite simple information

Up until recently Ozill has been self isolating so he should be able to give some tips

 

[Neil]

Arsenal have enough players to make a team. No difference to a flu virus in the squad

If they can just self isolate till teatime on Saturday then all’s good.

The third option is those who are completely thick
