Well yes, that would be ideal. However, footballers, like the rest of us, mustn't be forced to return if they consider it not safe to do so.
Troy Deeney has said he won't be because he's worried about bringing the virus home to his son who has breathing difficulties.

I agree but to be fair there have been people working throughout this pandemic who really had no choice in it!! Not saying footballers are by any means essential but they will be looked after far better with regards to testing, medical accessibility and social distancing that those who have worked through this whole thing!! As for Troy Deeney, I can respect that view but surely for him he should just isolate himself from his family in a hotel or whatever just like players do for a world cup, admittedly that might only work in the top 2 divisions in terms of cost but it is one of the things football should consider.

The problem with sport, and other industries like movies or theme parks, is they are purely there for our entertainment, they have no essential nature at all and for that reason its very easy to view them as not important and potentially allow them to wither on the vine as this drags on. Football needs to find a way to function in this current climate, and it needs to do it quickly or else we will see a lot of people lose their jobs for good and the industry will collapse, and because its not considered essential like an airline or bank or car manufacturer, its an industry that will not get bailed out.
