What is feared really happened, after we all started to feel safe from COVID-19, it turned out that this virus showed that they still existed even though most of the world had already received the vaccine. The case of this new variant of COVID-19 could cause all leagues to be stopped again, because based on research, this new version is resistant to currently available vaccines.

Maybe other coaches need to follow this way, so players don't underestimate the vaccine (if there are still football players who haven't been vaccinated)
The omicron variant requires a booster shot if you are already vaccinated. We dont know how many variants are still to come. Leagues must plan on how to proceed with Covid as there are no chances of covid to exit this world. Gerrard is doing a good job as he is making
vaccine status part of Aston Villa transfer talks. I dont think there is player left without vaccine.
