Incredible. Clowns indeed.

How fucking dumb are these guys?

It would be impossible to fucken finish the season if we halt all of serie a every time a player tests positive. Also how on earth is there not already a protocol in place for such a case? There should not be a meeting now to decide there should be a plan how to handle the situation already in place.
Bunch of fucken amateurs apparently non of those idiots ever heard of risk management.
And then we wonder why serie A fell that far behind well managed leagues.


EDIT: Does that mean will not play today? Theres nothing on our site that says we re not playing today....
Once again fucken amateurs how do we not know 5h before the game wether we ll play or not?

theres a difference between one player being out and most of the team like Genoa.

It's the right decision, the league should be suspended for a couple of weeks. I expect to see similar problems arise in other coutnries.

Sorry how is it the right decision? First of it s Genoas problem everybody else could protect their players, like are we gonna stop now for genoa and then when it happens to some other team and we realize we cannot finish serie a if we stop again we just say fuck that team?
Also whats the benefit off stopping all the other games? Like who cares if genoa and one or two teams are one match back? Especially if it s teams that don't play in europe anyway and have ample time to make up the missed games. No we rather delay the entire serie a cause the fucken Lega did not think of making a plan in case such a situation occurs, it s amateurish at best.
On top of that we cannot do more then test all the players right before the game if they test negative we have to live with risk of some of them only showing positive results after the match otherwise why even play? We simply cannot eliminate that risk not even if we d stuff them all in a bubble alla NBA.

Stopping the campionato now is dumb it shows that there was 0 organisation/ risk management/contengency planning from the lega and it will make sure that a couple of weeks down the road when it s gonna be another team with a couple of cases we re once again gonna be in chaos and once again the lega is gonna stand there with their dicks in their hand and without a plan and i can guarantee you they ll wanna handle the situation different then they do now.
On top of all that they let the monday game go on like wtf they knew about the outbreak on monday but the idea to postpone only comes 5h before the next game starts???

Also has a single Napoli player caught it? If no wtf is the hold up?

Again i m not sure how anybody can think this is what competent management would do.....

I personally kinda hate the mentality that its just as simple asp rotecting yourself from the virus. There's loads of attack vectors and even someone being precautious could catch it. Furthermore, what are the options? We postpone 3 weeks of Genoa's matches because they're unavailable? What happens if another team has an outbreak? Or do we make Genoa default 3-0 (like some countries have done)?

I dont think anyone is saying there's no risk, but if you haev a large part of your squad out with COVID, suspension makes sense. And I think the point here is that Serie A needs to look at the risk to the players, and wider society. In the UK it's starting to get a bit bad again, and with people like Thiago now self-isolating after COVID, it might only be a matter of time before one of the big teams has a real problem tbh/

Incubation time probably?

Not saying its easy to protect from the virus but thats exactly the point we cannot guarantee that so we now stop the campionato every time that a team has a couple of cases(which is pretty likely as getting just one case in a team seems unlikely)?
Yes we should just postpone genoas game till they have lets say 20 players available that are negative? I mean if 14 genoa players would have picked up a stomach flue and be unable to play for two weeks would anybody suggest stopping the campionato? And again my whole point is in no way shape or form should the lega be discussing these things ow as they already should have been decided before the competition starts for fairness sake....
If we wanna play in the current environnement(corona) will have to accept that outbreaks happen unless we go in a bubble....

Agreed but if anything the fact that i dont know of a single Napoli player who got it should be encouraging if anything as they obviously played against people who had it. Incubation time might be a explanation to that i guess will know in a couple of days. If they were concerned about the public safety why has no decision on re banning fans been made? Also how are we safer in 3 weeks when genoa players are negative again? Virus will still be around and chances of another team catching it will be the exact same as if only Genoa sat out.

Incubation time probably?

You probably right on this.
Again i just dont see how stopping the whole of serie A gives any advantage over just postponing Genoa games till they have enough players to play.
I mean yeah it s gonna suck when squads miss players or even have to forfeit games cause of covid but its not like injuries and illnesses have not always influenced football. But whats gonna suck even more is having teams miss players cause of Covid plus having the teams that play in europe having an absolute clusterfuck of a calendar in front of them cause theres not enough days to play games. Last season was a shit show this season is gonna be much worse if we stop the campionato everytime a team has a couple of cases.

Just my two cents.
Also no matter where you stand on this the fact that the lega is not prepared for this is just a joke.

Looks like all Napoli players tested negative for COVID. That's a relief.

It could have been some kind of lab/ testing error in the first place, who knows.

 

[wera]

Just let Genoa play with players that aren't positive or better yet, make all their games losses by default. I work with people every day and I make sure I am safe. I won't give footballers a pass, go train, go home, go play a game, go home, motherfuckers are paid nice wages and can't say no to a party ffs

There are rumours somebody had a bday party and everybody got invited

They already double tested the genoa players stil all 14 positive.

Grande Spezia with a great win against weird circumstances at Udine.

 

[Besnik]

Atalanta takes the lead with Gosens

 

[PHM1605]

Gosens with 1 goal and 1 assist already okerface:

Usually I am against buying Atalanta player but Gosens might be an exception. Imagine him and Hakimi with our formation would tear any teams apart.

 

[Fapuccino]

Why did Gasperini not do that stuff here...

 

[Kenny]

Nazio getting hammered.

 

[n4l]

Well either lazio tries to recover v us or this is who they are

 

[IM21]

Why did Gasperini not do that stuff here...

cause he had a bunch of old players.

 

[Kramerica Industries]

Should be able to score some goals on Sunday.
