why on earth would the community shield be august 1? Its a slush fund for FA jollies. if no suitable date exists just cancel it. In 1981 no suitable date could be found for uefa super cup and it just wasn't held. Whats the rationale for not having game the week before season? Have city or us a prior engagement
Dutch are far superior but if youve got to play babel and depay you are a long long way from a good team overall. Ye olden days.... kluivert, bergkamp, rvn, gullit, van basten.... dutch havent got tgat forward. They've royally ****ed it here. England just need to sit in now.
