Maybe not the strongest, or the most entertaining league in Europe, but certainly the most organized one – Bundesliga. The Germans have a set of various rules, each cleverly and thoughtfully setup to protect the game of football and the fans. No rich oil sheiks who obey the human or labor rights can own a club in Germany, nobody is making a mockery out of UEFA’s Financial Fair play, nobody is overspending money which they don’t have and later trying to form a new league to get more money, and last but not least, no conspiracy theories over Covid vaccines.The Big Six are the worst: First to collect the money from the Premier League, last to be vaccinatedUnlike the Premier League for instance, the German Bundesliga has a high number of players fully vaccinated, over 94 percent, as confirmed by the league president. The Premier League? Nobody knows, there are no official figures!„The almost complete take-up of the coronavirus vaccine is pretty good. There is a lot at stake, it makes good sense. Everyone can decide for themselves, but you also have a professional responsibility for yourself and your body. This is how you earn your money. I have little understanding if you don’t get vaccinated“ said Bundesliga CEO Christian Seifert said to Bild Live.For example, Hertha Berlin decided to charge the players who are not yet vaccinated for their twice-weekly PCR tests. And with spectators required to show evidence of double vaccination or a recent negative test, it is expected that Bundesliga will allow full capacity stadium crowds by the end of October.(1.15) ENGLAND (9.00) HUNGARY (22.0)Quite contrary to the Premier League, who are still not sure how many players and staff members are actually vaccinated. When quizzed by the BBC, the league said that only 7 clubs are more than 50% fully vaccinated. Wolves (Chinese owners) have confirmed 100 per cent of their players and staff have been fully vaccinated with two doses, while Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp (a German) said ’99 per cent’ of his players were vaccinated.’Rashford and Sterling have changed perception of black players’Others are just refusing, mainly due to dubious conspiracy theories, as confirmed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Steve Bruce. Roma’s Tammy Abraham is the first England international to admit being vaccinated, before the World Cup qualifying match against Andorra, but when asked by the press, his team-mates Phil Foden, Fikayo Tomori and Jesse Lingard refused to comment.
