Exactly! I can't see anything being announced publicly until at least the day after we are 100% in France, and we know we don't have to go through play offs! But as you said, behind the scenes, they need to start early!
I was trying to think whether a South American side would consider travelling here for a friendly, when they already have two qualifiers to play in the space of 8 days.

Many friendlies these days by South American teams are played in Europe now because of the vast majority of their players are already based with European clubs. Also the FAW have done so well in keeping the games at CCS and benefited hugely because of if it so surely this would mean that they will get a bumper financial game in November for a friendly and they bloody deserve every penny it makes them.
