  1. Not sure how playing against an Australian team and against a championship team will help us. I like the Juventus matchup though.

    In a World Cup year this has got to be the dumbest most stupidest thing ever, especially on the back of our long Club World Cup Summer last year.

    I don’t see us performing much better next season regardless of transfers and manager thanks to things like this.

    BlueCo should arrange friendlies in Tehran, Moscow and Kyiv but let’s make sure to send our sporting directors and owners first

  4. I remember when our pre season tours were about match fitness rather than money. I swear only 10 years ago it was still in Austria or things like that.

    You can’t walk outdoors for fear of heat stroke from the heat and humidity in HK in August….are they trying to cripple the squad before the season has even started??
