Thiago Alcantara

[Guest Alex_K]

At 29 he is an elder statesmen of the team. Not good - that means only an 99.98% chance of survival from his positive test per latest CDC figures.

Hmmmm. Means not available for at least a fortnight.

Only means he’ll miss Thursday and Sunday for us.

 

Hopefully he won’t have to waste his time on international duty and is ready for the title decider at Woodison.

I just hope he isn't one of the people that continue to have ongoing issues after they have 'recovered'

The general level of fitness for an elite professional player makes that unlikely, but I’m sure the club will be cautious given that myocarditis has been observed in a significant number of athletes following infection. Anything dodgy with the inevitable MRI and he'll rest longer.

[TheHowieLama]

We have never signed a good Italian.

No mention of whether he's sick or not.  All very well saying it's just 2 games but that's assuming he's asymptomatic.

Lets' hope he is .

The 29-year-old, who missed Monday’s match against Arsenal, has exhibited minor symptoms of the virus but is in good health and is getting better.

[Bjornebye]

[Bobby Hundreds]

The collar on the shirt annoys me everytime I see it.

After a disappointing day, its good to remind ourselves that we have got this absolute superb footballer playing for us now.

 

Cant wait to see him in the derby.

He will be back for the Derby? Where have you heard this? Seems a bit quick, but hope you are right

[Josef Svejk]

Was he symptomatic / actually ill? If not, you'd hope he would be available after self-isolating...

[Barrington Womble]

i think i read he had mild symptoms.

So in Trump world he's been on oxygen and a cocktail of snake oils

Footy fans are ace.

 

"He's got a virus that's killed a million people since March."

 

"Yes but will he bit for the derby?"

Even then you lose a couple weeks of match level fitness and sharpness.
