Summary
Pre-season is here and Ruben Amorim has his work cut out after his disastrous first few months in charge, but what, precisely, does he need to achieve before the Premier League resumes in mid-August?
The training squad is five lighter after Rashford, Sancho, Garnacho, Antony, and Malacia were given extra time away to find new clubs, so where does new no. 10 Cunha fit and how strong is each department looking?
There's no doubting the anxiety after Bilbao and bust, so what are we hoping for this term? Is top half good enough, or is a higher target required? With no European football, what about the cups? And who, from our team, has the wildest take on the coming season?
