Next season to start on 12th September

23rd August - UCL final
3rd-8th September - 2 International games each
12th September - Prem restarts
19th September - possible delayed start for teams playing in Europe in August

Fucking joke. Scrap those internationals for starters! They're not even qualifiers!
But are they not qualifiers for some teams?
 
They train the whole time even during a normal summer. They literally have diet and training plans.

Long gone are the days when footballers say around and put on 3 stone in 2 months.

Dunno about that. Gundogan definitely came back last summer with chippy tits.
 
'Season to start on 12th September nt.'

nt? Or am I being dense again?


When did you stop being dense

They really haven't. They've been training the whole time.

They haven’t, they kept fit for about 2 months with some light daily exercise that’s no different to what they’d do post season and they wouldn’t get that length of time off usually. The only issue is players wanting actual holidays but given the current climate I don’t think too many will be overly bothered about that. I’d fuck the final game off right now send whoever wants a break on holiday for a week now before getting a good 7-10 day’s training before Madrid.

Trying to jam the season in to a much condensed timeframe with a euros at the end of it too, they surely have to keep the 5 subs rule in place otherwise there’s going to be an unprecedented number of injuries in the coming 18 months

However, the start date for teams still playing in European competitions is still under discussion.

It remains possible they will be given a delayed start, given they could be playing well into August.

Last-16 ties in the Europa League - featuring Manchester United and Wolves - resume on 5 August, with the final scheduled to take place on 21 August.

Remaining Champions League last-16 ties resume from 7 August, with Manchester City and Chelsea still in the competition.

The final will take place on 23 August.
