If this is true. How quickly could they realistically play 9/10 games without FA cup or Europe. At a real push 5 weeks every Saturday/Wednesday gives you 11 slots so teams could have 1 or 2 midweek rests. I’d say absolute minimum between ending 19/20 and starting 20/21 is 3 weeks. And players need now minimum 3 weeks mini pre season. So pushing things to limit working backwards.
September 4th 20/21 starts
August 12th 19/20 ends
July 7th 19/20 resumes
June 16th players back training
In theory I think this TL is possible. However any outbreak at a club during this 2 month period and it’s basically all screwed.
