I think there'll be a hell of a lot of man management being implemented, but as we've seen, we have a good SQUAD now not just a good first team. Hell, i don't know what my first team would be, so I hardly think we can field an obviously weaker side. Another question would of course be, would the players rather play in the europa league or the Man United game on the sunday if they have the choice?
Not a chance. Along with the 2 domestic cups it will allow SB to keep all the squad happy. Plenty of games for everyone.
Guess it depends on the Europa league game. If it was Internazionale at the San Siro on Thursday, or Manchester United anywhere on Sunday, which would you pick?
I live nearer Milan and added to that the fact that we've never played seriously against ANY European clubs (bar the 1973 Anglo-Italian Cup when we beat Lazio and drew with Bari..) then it's very exciting to 'open' our eyes a little and see the club in a different comp. I'm all for it
Agree with this, plus the naysayers saying we could go down because of it..well we could go down anyway
