So, you know, there's plenty of things there.
The Etihad Stadium, they've relayed the pitch there.
They were going to do some massive work over the summer.
They brought that forward.
So the service, I'm told, is absolutely fantastic.
And I think it will just be really interesting to see how everyone,
kind of contends with this behind closed doors thing.
Cause if it goes like Germany, the first set of fixtures will, will probably look more like a kind of practice match type thing with, with, with players kind of getting into their stride.
And I think that's what this kind of last couple of weeks has been really important for.
We saw Manchester United at Old Trafford.
I think it's trying to get to grips with that atmosphere, with those huge stadiums.
I mean, I've played in a couple of charity games at Old Trafford and it's intimidating when no one's there, but it's a really eerie thing.
All those red seats, um,
you know, all the eyes of the world in TV terms on you, but no one there.
And I think that's going to be a real challenge.
And we've seen, again, in Germany, the home rule really isn't anything important anymore.
The kind of home advantage that you get from being in these big stadiums full of fans is something that based on
on German football isn't something that either Manchester United or Manchester City can look with any great confidence upon.
But I think both of them are united in the fact that they want to get going very quickly.
