Why the King Power, why not Villa Park.

Exactly, or elland rd.

It's the fans using trains again that will suffer, I wouldn't mind but direct trains run later and at as little as £15 rtn to either birmingham or leeds.

Unless it was a case these clubs said no to hosting it is probabaly as a bad place to hold it as making up schlepp to london

Better than Wembley but, since they already know the participants, it shouldn't have been beyond the wit of man (and even the FA!!) to arrange/negotiate a venue that is mutually convenient to both sets of supporters, including the use of direct trains!
Leicester is a piece of cake from London, but not (by rail) from the northwest... potential for train clashes is also far too great...

Something feels a bit off about having this in July. Appreciate the reasons why, but it hardly helps the prestige of the occasion. Wonder how many we'll have back by then.

Still, excited to see Haaland get a start hopefully.

Should have all the squad by then, its over 6 weeks between the last international competitive game and this one.
