With the expected international games pencilled in few days time, a storm is brewing between clubs and national side managements.
Certain managers have made it clear they would block any of their players going to join their national side if it means going to a COVID black listed country to play!
The various bodies are discussing moving games to countries that are deemed safe and a panic is setting slowly trying to organise these games!
Klopp has already made his views clear and Pep has also now said he would stop his players joining the national sides!
Jose said he would wait to see to which countries the games will be reschedule and played in before doing something about it!
All this could cause a friction between club managers and their country counterparts!
With all this mayhem, why not just postpone the games till later in the season?

International friendlies are unnecessary at the best of times, this year they are just ridiculous.
The Euro’s will be in one place now to stop all the travelling, so why is the location of the friendlies even being discussed - move them somewhere safe or better still, cancel them. No one cares about these games.
From a Spurs point of view, I hope we suffer a lot of very short term injuries just before the internationals

Absolute joke they want to do pointless friendlies, there's a covid pandemic and also the players are having play a lot of games as it is due to the schedule mess up.
They're having a laugh.

The season should be null and void. Pointless and meaningless anyway.
Asterisk season.

Some clubs are not allowing players to travel to 'Red List' countries like Portugal, Brazil and Argentina.
Quite right imo.

Players should not be travelling at all. Not even for European competitions. Worldwide Covid pandemic, and players travelling all around the globe just to play football.
All the European competitions should long ago have been abandoned. Ridiculous situation where teams from London are having to play home games in Greece.

Unfortunately, this is exactly it, just like last season was.
