Is there not some form of wildcard in which we can name a couple of new players up until the day of the game? Seen that bandied around with regards to Vertainen - may have just been for the first leg though…
If Booth is fully fit I’d go with him just for experience, harsh to drop Devine after his performance on Saturday mind you…
Glad I’m not the one making the call
Only seen him once, can vaguely remember him being decent with the ball but that’s about as much as I can give
Not that that’s much to go off, of course
I’d still put us as massive underdogs if LASK are indeed the team we end up facing. Look a very handy team. Best chance we’ll ever get at group stage football, but if there’s ever a Saints team to upset the odds, it’s this one!
If memory serves correctly, do Rennes not spend quite a bit of money now and are a very decent team? Pretty sure they’ve got Doku, who looked really good in the Euros for Belgium, and a young lad Camavinga in central midfield. Although, sure the latter is touted for a big move so might not be there by the time the ties come around.
Vaguely remember there being a bit of panic from Celtic fans when they were drawn in the same Europa group.
