Upcoming fixtures and squad rotation

[localny]

We brought it to an end earlier than planned. Had hoped to give it at least 2-3 years but my wife's work was a fiasco. No work-life balance, burnout, lack of autonomy. (My job, on the other hand, was fantastic. Was really difficult to give it up but needed to for the sake of my wife's well being.)

Combined with an exciting opportunity, we decided to pack it in. We're in process of acquiring a family-owned pharmacy in the Northwest Territories, not too far from where we previously lived in 2022-24.

Sad to have left Iqaluit prematurely but it was for the best and thrilled about what's to start in a couple weeks.

(In the meantime, we just got back from 18 days in Italy and now have a couple weeks with family and friends in our hometown Winnipeg.)

best of luck with it man. Sounds great. You're a good hubby 🙂

Sorry to hear it ended early but it sounds like you've fallen on your feet so I wish you the very best of luck in your new endeavour!

Anyone else think Slot might surprise us and field Mama instead of Alisson for the CL games, at least for the league stage? Keeps Mama sharp instead of waiting for the smattering of domestic cup games, and perhaps as part of the club's commitment / pitch to him when getting him to sign with us?

Personally don't have an issue with that if Slot really does rotate keepers for Europe (again, at least for the league stage). I don't think Alisson, being a saint, will have any gripes about it too.

Do you know what, for a bot, that’s actually not a bad idea at all.

But to answer your question, no I don’t.

I would rotate for Burnley. Give the international players to recover.

Then go hard in the CL and against the bitters before rotating again.

There's no way Slot rotates for a premier league match at the beginning of the season. Points on the board while the chasers are floundering.

We’ve created a gap. We want to at least keep that gap. Burnley away shouldn’t be an easy place to go. Best XI.

RIP Ryan.
