What do Vissel Kobe get out of this? It doesn’t sound like V Sports has bought a stake in them like they did Vitoria. Sounds like it’s just a partnership, what do they gain from it aside from us stealing their talent?

Was thinking how many of our players would get into their team, shows how far we've come the last few years.
Ireland can bizarrely still qualify for the play-off by losing to Netherlands. If Netherlands qualify, then Ireland get a play-off spot through the Nations League. So, there is a possible scenario of losing to Netherlands and getting into the play-offs or beating Netherlands and not getting the play-offs.
There wasn't much to separate them last season both scored 14 non penalty league goals, and Ollie essentially missed 1/3 of the season playing under Slippy G.
It’s worked out for the best him leaving. If he had stayed, Smith probably wouldn’t have been sacked when he was, we wouldn’t have hired Gerrard when we did and we wouldn’t have hired Emery. I’ll take Emery over Jack any day.
I think it doesn't look like a foul because Ollie got the shot away, if he hadn't shot I think a pen is given. Another example of being punished for being honest.
Winning the CL or EL has no impact on league qualification. You could in theory have 7 English teams in the CL next season: Top 4 - Extra 5th Spot - CL Winners & EL winners provided the finish outside the top 5.
Possibly, but with also having to prepare for the Zrinjski game at the same time, we'd still be at a disadvantage compared to Wolves preparation and rest.
Not confident about this one. Won't have much time to prepare, and they'll have a full week of rest.
Our high line has been exposed away from home, and they have plenty of pace up front.
