Thread: Today marks day 15 of being back in the UK, and it also marks the end of my quarantine period.

Here are some thoughts:
Over the past 2 weeks, I’ve experienced quite a wide range of emotions, mostly annoyed, frustrated, confused, impatient...

And because I don’t feel symptoms, convinced that I have nothing that should keep me inside. Very selfish mindset, which came easily when (and I say this w/ so much gratitude) my family has been healthy and safe. But, then I had these overwhelming realisations...

That I very well could be risking the health of people I would see, and risking the health of strangers if I don’t handle this correctly. And that, that is something that quickly brought me back. As our world begins to implement this new normal, allow us to eat out...

See friends and socialise (to a degree), I strongly urge you to check yourself. Is this necessary? Am I putting people at risk? Am I following the guidelines? I understand they may feel silly and inconvenient, but they are 100% necessary. So follow them, even if you don’t agree..

We have to protect one another, whether a friend, family member, or stranger. The only way we beat this is if we are unselfish. In the grand scheme of things, it takes very little sacrifice from each one of us to do our part...

Follow the guidelines, social distance (LOOK at the stickers on the ground https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😁" title="Grinsendes Gesicht mit lächelnden Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Grinsendes Gesicht mit lächelnden Augen">), wear a mask, wash your hands, and my goodness people, just be kind!!!!

I very much look forward to seeing you all out on the pitch when it’s safe to do so https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏🏼" title="Folded hands (mittelheller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Folded hands (mittelheller Hautton)">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💙" title="Blaues Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Blaues Herz">
