This Emi thing would have been a bit of a mare if he still played for us wouldn't it.

They've got games in October and November as well. They are having to fly back and spend 10 days in Croatia before re-entering the UK due to Brasil/Argentine still being red list. Assuming that remains the case they he's going to miss several games during the first half of the season due to having to quarantine.
