I'd call it a "step too far" TBH!! But The Hoops want to be in there amongst the "big boys" in order to play at that higher level and improve their players as well as enhance player status.
You say that but looking at the HT score in tonights match they are going to be in the group stages of the Europa League anyway, so the potential toll on their squad will still be there. The only positive is that the opposition won’t be as tough so maybe Lenny can squad rotate a bit more that he could against CL opposition.
