Particularly interesting that Fred has not been included in the squad. Also, some of the times are annoying for us European viewers to watch the games.

Some big matches scheduled. Does anyone really care how we do? Promising pre-season does not always equal good start (reference: last season)

How important is it to have a striker signed ASAP to join on the tour?

Malacia missing a bigger question mark for me, Fred clearly about to be sold
 
Per usual, we don't want any injuries to any player or staff while on Tour, and that goes for both teams.

The most interesting thing is the overall player positioning and shape on and off the ball and then into transition.

Also, will we see anything close to a complete XI have any time together, which would include Onana in goal and presumably, Bruno as captain?

Results do not mean anything and having an out and out center forward/striker by the end of the transfer window is vital - short term pain for long term gain.
