The big curtain raiser to start the season, this game should give us an idea whether or not Ahmed can bounce back or if John can work his magic and be able to produce the goods when necessary.
Can Bayern win the quadruple ?
Should be a corker !

I appreciate your enthusiasm Gazza, but I think we all know this fixture won't tell us much!

Does it go with last season's treble, or are you already predicting Bayern for this season's treble?

This cup is always seen as a glorified friendly to us and I dare say Ahmed. Expect to see the 2 new signings make their debuts with a few reserves stepping up and all fringe players starting.
Would hate going into the start of the season with, injuries, suspensions and poor fitness.
It would be nice to have this as a show piece game with the above being reset for the start but hey ho until then expect us to turn up but not bother one bit of the outcome and take away what abs we can.

Goes with last seasons mate, Bayern for back to back trebles ?..... no way ! but I wrote them off last season and look what happened. Ahmed really should sweep the board with that amazing squad, his fringe team could win the league !

I see Ahmed going 4 up front, attacking.

Doubt it'll give you many pointers playing against 21 rated defenders and 22 rated midfielders.

I've actually won this cup many moons ago and despite all the BS, both managers will want to win this one.
Yeah the odd fringe player will feature at some point but their first 11 will be in that 16 man squad come game time!
As a rival manager this season, this game is of interest and I hope both keepers get injured for 12 weeks lmfao

Honestly this game means very little to me, and 2 players will very unlikely feature in the first 16 again this season.
I obviously wouldn't mind winning it, but he fore most important factors are abs points and no injuries or suspensions.
There is not win goal in winning this game, maybe if there was a prize pot for winning then it would change matters
