First a message from our editor, James Andrew
It’s almost like football has never been away – but for many, it can't return soon enough. Regardless, here we are with the start of a new season... so it’s time to start dreaming of what could be.
Of course, things will be different. For starters, we kick off a month later than normal and fans won’t be allowed into grounds for the early part. But some things never change, and as long as there’s a new season on the horizon, you can be sure that FFT will produce a bumper preview issue.
Flip the magazine over and you will be able to read our verdicts on each of the 92 Premier League and Football League teams, expertly reviewed and rated alongside previews for the WSL, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and Bundesliga. (For what to expect in the main magazine, meanwhile, read on.)
Good luck to all of your teams this season, and forgive my impartiality for a second: come on Fulham…
