It's almost like some clubs are smart and know how to play the system to suit their own ends

And I'm sure they absolutely definitely wouldn't find a few phantom injuries or isolations to pad out the numbers. Absolutely not, honesty above all else :roll:

There is no reason that any of the big Premiership clubs should be allowed to cancel any game due to Covid. They all have huge depth in squads and even down to their under 18’s

Different rules for different comps FA cup ones are that they can pretty much play anyone who's signed terms with the club.

A farce. Pure and simple. Klopp playing a tune.
