Presumably we will get to know who makes the plane and more importantly who does not. I would imagine Bailey will meet them there

Bailey only finished his season on Thursday last. I wouldn't expect to see him with the team until they're back home for the Lazio/Valencia games.

The only time I’ve heard Penerol mentioned anywhere is in relation to that game so I was a bit surprised, via Wiki, to find that they are the 3rd most successful side in the Copa Libertadores with 5 wins.

Most successful team I Uruguay and Nacional their only real rivals there.

No Feeney either. Signed a new deal yesterday, wonder if he is off on loan?

Also 12 midfielders and 3 strikers, one of whom is Bailey, and another untried at top level shows how short we are of attacking options.

Kellyman and Philogene listed as midfielders though and both generally play higher than that.

There's no Feeney listed, but I thought I saw a pic of him on the official page?  Or is it Marschall?  The gingery one on their own?

Just wondering what airline are they flying with? Doesn't look like BA business class seats so might be a charter.

I'm disappointed not to see trays of cocaine, a la Motley Crue.

My first thoughts too. Tommy O’REILY stood out at Walsall I thought too. Disappointed if Tim isn’t involved around first team this year given that we need to list homegrown talent for europa squads
