***Official*** English Football Season 2019-20

Apparently the justification is "he did things outside of football" but rather than explaining why that means that Rashford is the only realistic option full stop, they cited... him hugging his dad after the CL final.

Ah, English sports media, never change.

Do we know when the vote took place? Some of these votes are way in advance. It might pre-date Rashford.
I seem to remember that the players used to vote around February time so whether the press do the same or not I don't know. The thing is these days it could be done very late on as everyone has technology to do it easily in a short space of time.

Going to be a manic time for transfers in the next few weeks. Wonder when they will close the window this year?

May be a case to keep it open for sides below Championship to loan players from leagues above to help with clubs finances as a one off for the season.

Think Henderson is an okay choice TBH, Captain of the winning side, but hey I never care that much about these things.

He's certainly in interesting narrative, was considered a joke signing and on the outs, ends up a pivotal part of a League, Champions League, and the world thingy.

The new season starts on September 12th. Impossible to make predictions. It could be very messy in a number of ways.
Hope all the nasty fixtures are in those first few weeks before they let us in. Exeter away, someone dull like Southend at home. That sort of thing. But hey, no doubt it'll be Bolton, Oldham and Macc because this is the EFL after all.

This is the latest we've ever not had a footy thread for the next season btw, since I've been here anyway. Obviously that's because this farce of a season refuses to end, unless you're a non play off participating L1/2 club that is, but anyway what was I talking about? Oh yeah **** the EFL and most of the clubs in it.

I was totally convinced for most of the season that we would lose to them in the play-offs. Missed their absolutely ridiculous collapse at the time for obvious reasons.

They didn't have a transfer window and have improved from last season. For a young manager he has had a very good first season in the top flight.
