Meslier unlucky not to be named as well in my opinion

What a difference this guy has made since the recovery of his serious injury

Superb again today

Diego Llorente vs. Tottenham:

57 touches
33/42 successful passes
9 ball recoveries
5 interceptions (first)
5 aerial duels won (first)
2 clearances
1 foul

Seriously impressive performance and made 4 of his 5 interceptions in the opposition half

[SG90]

No doubt in my mind we'd be challenging for top 6 if he'd stayed fit all season. What a difference he's made since coming in.

[Allrounder]

There was a time we almost gave up on him and wondered if big money was wasted but he has really shown he is worth that money and more so.

[The Subhuman]

Missed the tackle for the goal, should never have allowed Deli Ali to get that through, he was in perfect position.. I think he's not the best tackler, very good on the ball and better in the air than I thought but has been caught out a few times recently when needing to make the tackle. Looks like Alio thought he should have done better too, he was annoyed at someone.

Looks a DMF/Sweeper in this league to me but we'll see. Very good footballer though happy to have him

Congratulations Diego.

Has been included in the Spain squad for Euro 2020.

Given how few games he has played its testament to how well he has done.

Spain have announced a 2nd positive covid test after Barcelona legend Sergio Busquets.

Unfortunately our very own Diego has tested positive for Covid.

I hope the money the Euros generate for the powers that be is worth this.

Idiots.

[Leeds1000]

I sincerely pray that all the fit young men survive. Please lord allow this tournament to survive, in only for financial reasons alone. ...

[whiteswan]

Said all along with 64 White.....utterly utterly ridiculous for this tournament to go ahead. Greedy greedy EUFA. Should be ashamed of themselves.

[Smudge3920]

Truly sad...money money money...There are plenty on here who said they should not go ahead Swannie...in fact I dont recall reading one in support.

Explains why Diego wasn't in the Spanish squad last night.

Get well soon Diego.

pretty sure most people want normal life to resume and something to cheer for and enjoy over the summer rather than another dull summer...

covid rates are very low now, no reason why we can't get back to some kind of normality

[danhirons]

are you aware of a single professional footballer that has died from covid....?

I'm not but a few ex players have died though.

Whether they have or have not (I'm not aware of any) the more that have it the more others catch it and some of them will die while others may not die but suffer life changing illness.

We all know that the numbers show healthy fit people are less likely to suffer long term (not all) but they can still pass it on to others that will.

[Irish Ian]

Englands best chance this comp is the rest coming down with Covid...

It's why we've taken it out there with us ... Somewhere in our squad are 2/3 typhoid Mary's. Southgate for sure

Wait for the Olympics , this tournament has nothing on that ......a few European countries compared to world wide participation .

They're tested incredible regularly. If anything it stops the spread of Corona because the cases are caught through the testing. They're also usually in isolated training camp bubbles and so they're probably in safer places and less likely to get Corona or spread it than if they were going about their everyday lives...

Fans at the grounds is a bit of a different story but life needs to return to normal at some stage, otherwise we will be waiting years for everyone to be vaccinated and every covid variant to peter out....
