New Hearts signing arrives Monday from Turkey, plays tonight?

[remembertheepoch]

Dont understand how this guy Gnanduillet has basically arrived from turkey (played with Blackpool last season) without Self Isolating. He took a covid test that was negative but surely should have been self isolating. He ends up coming off the bench and scoring twice.
Zungu had to quarantine for 14 days I believe before he could join our squad.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

I’m beginning to think Zungu self-isolated at our insistence rather than to keep in line with any rules. Which is fair enough.

 

[Main Stand]

Hearts aren’t stupid enough to do this without having permission, I presume we just had Zungu isolate as a precaution.

 

[Mexi]

Maybe to avoid tabloid speculation, or dodgy SFA sanctions?

 

[Remo-town]

Considering what's been going on, I would doubt very much hearts are blind to this or anyone else for that matter.

 

[DeeCeeTee]

I thought Zungu isolated because he wasn’t playing/training with the first team squad in France at the time so wasn’t in their “bubble”?

 

[skaillbear]

Elite sports rule gets by it, doesn’t it

Perhaps just a sign of our leaderships intelligence and not taking unnecessary risks?

 

[Coatbridge Chancellor]

Elite sports players are exempt from isolating (currently) providing a negative test is produced.

 

[SuperGers07]

He left Turkey in December

He will have had a covid test on signing and then another to enter the bubble.

No conspiracy.

I’ve always felt he was a cracking big unit also. One to keep an eye on over the next 18 months for sure

 

[Main Stand]

No conspiracy.

I’m sure someone will suggest something.

 

[Clementime]

Perhaps just a sign of our leaderships intelligence and not taking unnecessary risks?

Exactly my thought.

We have zero wiggle room for mishaps, or mishap opportunities.

We need to always be in control of our destiny, in that respect.

 

[ibrox1975]

Maybe to avoid tabloid speculation, or dodgy SFA sanctions?

No, to drop any possibility of him infecting our entire squad
That would have been an utter disaster

This bubble stuff needs to stop. There is no such thing they go home to their families every day and they aren’t required to do anything different to the rest of us. The main difference is that these players are getting at least two tests a week.

 

[bluestory]

I'm sure it's all above board. That said Hearts forgot to order seats for their new stand so watch this space.

It’ll have been to do with whether he came straight from one bio bubble to another. Similar to Cavani at Man U

 

[alba73]

I’m sure talkSPORT said the new Chelsea manager was at training today

He was, took training today.

 

[Scaramanga]

Probably a smart one too, not worth risking arsing up what’s been a phenomenal season just to rush someone into the squad.

 

[Clay Davis]

I thought Zungu isolated because he wasn’t playing/training with the first team squad in France at the time so wasn’t in their “bubble”?

He played 2 days before signing for us.

Must have just been us taking extra precautions.

Been a nonsense since day 1. The same with travel exemptions because they are in a “bubble”, especially when it comes to internationals and having to make their own travel arrangements across the world.

 

[Gazza no8]

As long as he does 2 negative tests I’m sure he’s allowed to be at games and training. Sure that’s what I read about tuchel arriving at Chelsea.

 

[Arkanoid]

Celebs and sports people are exempt, do what the hell they want.

 

[El Jock Grande Sabia]

He played 2 days before signing for us.

Must have just been us taking extra precautions.

I was sure he flew in from South Africa when he joined us? The 14 days were for having left the bubble in France & South Africa not having a corridor as it was a hotspot at the time?

 

[Wilkinsvolley]

I’m beginning to think Zungu self-isolated at our insistence rather than to keep in line with any rules. Which is fair enough.

I agree. I think we’d make sure we’d minimise any chance of infecting other players and derailing the season. Very sensible move imo even if the rules don’t state we have to.
These are the kind of things that have seen us fair better through covid this season imo.

 

[SuperGers07]

Tell that to Thomas Tuchel. I agree it’s a nonsense

 

[blue diesel]

Got his covid test done at the chamber of secrets,
So everything is jolly, and can do as he pleases.

 

[Papasmurf]

Hearts aren’t stupid enough to do this without having permission, I presume we just had Zungu isolate as a precaution.

And 100% the right approach. Belt and braces approach. It’s worked so far (touch wood)

 

[Virgil Hilts]

Would he not have to get a private jet to maintain bubble ?

 

[Let’s Gio]

I’m beginning to think Zungu self-isolated at our insistence rather than to keep in line with any rules. Which is fair enough.

i think so

 

[RTD-BEAR]

Two points tuchel has been isolating in London for around 10 days the lampard sacking was timed with that

I think it was on club insistence im pretty sure balogun was the same.

To be honest it's prowl over precaution but it ensures we protect ourselves.
