It's a curious one. Beyond the points you made, there is the relationship with Pep Lijnders (and Vitor Matos) from Liverpool. I wonder if that will be the main focus of his role - ie, more focussed on Salzburg.

What do you think about his potential influence in New York and Bragantino?

Finally, thanks for the inclusion in the directory. Very kind. These directories were very well received in the fiction community from my time over there.

Yeah, interesting. Despite the relative success of Leipzig, my sense has always been that Salzburg is the centre of it. I wonder if they see it the same way.

Not sure where Bragantino sits, quite honestly. It's an almost entirely Brazilian squad. I suppose the plan is to move some of them to Europe eventually. New York, to me, feels increasingly like a branding necessity and less like a part of the player machine. Maybe CFG being there has changed some thinking.
