John McGinn - signed (Captain)

[OCD]

It's ok, we've got a relatively easy start to the season away at West Ham and home to Arsenal.

[AV84]

Unless we're planning on making wholesale changes to the starting lineup and tactics for next season, he could probably have all of July off, assuming he does a little bit of exercise, and then come back into training in August, and still be ready to go for the start of the season.

Get some good rest SJM

[OCD]

He can have about 3 weeks off and come back when the other international players do.

[Richard]

4 weeks off i reckon, then come back in time for the US trip.

Already on the plane to Dublin

[Aldridge Villa]

And then onto Dubai to meet his chum Grealish.

[pauliewalnuts]

He usually goes to Benidorm I believe.

We should see him just before the season starts then, with his Spanish hat and donkey

Vegas baby .

He does so much running off the ball, he's not a natural athlete given his size (apart from the elite-level arse) and he's 30 in October.

In an era of 5 subs regularly being made, I think 90 minute games are probably a thing of the past for him now.

Still expect him to start the majority of our matches next season and to continue to be a key player for us.

I was wondering why aldridgeboy was there. Hotel's nice and there's no kids, so he should get some rest.

I'm wondering where is he fitting into the team ? Especially bringing in two or three more signings and probably a couple of those being big name players.
I tend to think he be club captain but not necessarily a guaranteed starter though will start initially
I think once squad is finalised can see what the approach will be.
