Thats a lot of games with the Europa League coming up as well.

I can't see mention of the home friendly. Do we have any more details on that?

I'm up for using that one. Better quality.

Tell you what, I'll merge them.

Some textbook merging there. Nice one.

I love a good merge.

It's very satisfying, I agree.

A bit of a story behind every possible one of our matches in that tournament:
-If we play Werder Bremen we may play against Elia
-Valencia is Koeman's old team
-Red Bull Salzburg is Mane's old team. In fact Mane left in acrimonious circumstances, I hope he doesn't get booed seems as it's at their ground.

I suppose we are playing so many games because we will be buying so many players we need to give them all game time

It's the only way to do it in Football Manager.

I'm going to drop a bombshell here. But...I've never played Football Manager. I'll have to take your word for it!

Get yourself to the doctors quick and see if they can find your missing gene

I played it a couple of times. It didn't take a hold. Always been a player, so Pro Evo was my choice. Besides, I got to choose the team. Random elements like my star player wants to go somewhere else was boring.

I doubt any player will play 90 minutes until the Feyenoord game

45 minute work outs mainly

What happened with Mane?

I must have missed this at the time. Was his head already in Southampton? Did "Oh When the Saints" give him goosebumps?

Something like that. Threatened to strike.

A piece about Saints first pre-season opponents who have only been in existence for 6 years! They have already beaten Wolfsburg so could be interesting.
