Alm reflected on an intense pre-season in which the team played nine friendlies and rotated minutes across the squad. The performances, he admitted, have been inconsistent. Strong at times, but also showing areas that still need improvement.

With the league about to begin, the focus now shifts from experimentation to competition. It’s time to select the strongest XI, build rhythm, and grow through real matches, including domestic fixtures, the cup, and European ties.
The message is clear: friendlies are over. Now the real work begins.
