No Winter break

Post by Woodleyclaret » Thu Aug 13, 2020 4:09 pm

Never needed always a sop to foreign managers and caused unnecessary disruption to the season
We just need to scrap meaningless International friendlies now.

The Nation League imo is a big improvement, with reducing the number of friendlies.

But I would never want all friendlies to be scrapped, as they do serve their purpose in moderation.

I can see tantrums and tears from the likes of Moaninho, Arteta, OGS, Klopp and Lampard. Complaining again about needing a break and then complaining that the fixture schedule doesn't give them enough rest time. It must be difficult for the poor dears to get to the training grounds some days with all the toys thrown out of the pram.

The winter break for the Premier League for the last few years has been the FA Cup third round.
