That looks to me like the barest 13 'A' list players, including a goalie. What were they doing in training, 'Touch & Go'?

 

[Macch]

So if the match goes on...

Gollini
Sanches - Dier - Tanganga
Doherty - Winks - ? - ?
Bergijn - Kane - Dele

Not sure who Conte would pick for LWB or the other CM.

 

[Yorkshire_Spurs]

Lloris
Emerson
Hojberg
Son
Gil
Moura
Davies
Skipp

Does this make the potential 8 first team with covid then?

If so that is 7 of our favoured current starting 11.

Assuming Reggy and Romero don't and are just injured.

Bonnet de Douche?

Mange tout

Other sources also include Markanday as having trained

Nile John in midfield probably.

We should make a gentleman's agreement with them, our kids vs their kids.

At the beginning of the season we had to register 25 names for this cup. We can’t just throw kids into the game. Only those players registered

Can u add or play unregistered youth players or is that 25 fixed?

I am pretty sure it is fixed.

 

[Zomb]

I am pretty sure it is fixed.

Think u are prob right. Fairly certain there is more flex to bring in yoots for PL

 

[Macch]

Start praying for snow.

Apparently a bigger threat than COVID

 

[TonySoprano]

What about fans are they allowed to attend?

This makes no sense a COVID outbreak amongst players and staff yet they can all rock up into a stadium full of supporters. Weirdness.

 

[Airfixx]

J’ajoute que les internationaux Doku (ailier) et Meling (latéral gauche), ainsi que Tait, milieu en pleine forme cette saison, très important dans les liaisons milieu-attaque, sont blessés. Bref, Rennes, même sans covid !, aura une équipe privée de plus de la moitié de ses titulaires.

I add that internationals Doku (winger) and Meling (left-back), as well as Tait, a strong midfielder this season, very important in the mid-attack links, are injured. In short, Rennes, even without covid !, will have a private team of more than half of its holders.

JOE BERNSTEIN: UEFA often insist 'the show must go on' but making Tottenham play Rennes in the midst of a Covid outbreak would turn their Europa Conference League tie into a farce... don't bank on them to do the right thing

 

[Legacy Lilywhite]

This game is beyond a shambles. What a beautiful example of corrupt, incompetent European bureaucracy.

 

[Calgary Spur]

So dumb. I can't imagine that Rennes is super excited to play this either. I mean, it's pretty obvious this hit our squad with Ivan Toney, and while the positives will be sat out, who knows if others have it and are playing that day? Just a ridiculous decision.

 

[TonySoprano]

This game won't go ahead.

We should pull out of the tie and competition and tell UEFA to go fuck themselves.

Toney wasn't anywhere near our defence all game lol. Joking aside, how come Brentford aren't this fucked?

My wife said they must all be tonguing each other in the showers or something. I have TWO of my kids with covid, since last weekend. In my house, isolating. I'm not positive. How the fuck is it spreading with them when I can't catch it of my children?
