Obinna Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 "Any proposed medical replacements will only be considered by the Concacaf Medical Committee in cases of serious injury or illness. Such replacements must be proposed to Concacaf for review at least 24 hours before the kick-off of the relevant team’s Quarterfinal match. Additionally, players proposed as medical replacements must come from the previously announced provisional rosters." Interested to see if Covid will be considered "serious illness".... narduch and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sentence right before the part you quoted is: "This is primarily due to the COVID-19 challenges that have impacted a number of the participating teams in the Group Stage." So I'm going to assume yes. (Sorry to keep doing this to you 🤣) Obinna and johnyb 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of the players to test positive have likely done so with no symptoms of illness, so will it be considered "serious"? A lot of players have missed action in this tournament due to positive tests, so I suspect it will be for that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N1ckbr0wn Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 (edited) Wouldn’t mind Akindele as a replacement, certainly deserves it. But how would you all feel giving Bustos the call? Good finisher and could play the goal scoring playmaker role at the 10. Unsure if he was on the provisional though Edited July 19, 2021 by N1ckbr0wn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboAl Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 If we brought in a replacement for Akinola, calling in Bustos would be a bit of a gamble (but would love to give him a chance). Think it would more likely be Tesho as a known quantity. Edit: I still think we need to use those we called into the squad and see how they do. So before Akinola’s replacement gets it, we should start Corbeanu. dyslexic nam, johnyb, Bison44 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
