He's got plenty of time to decide who his next whipping boy will be. After all, we don't know who is joining the club and Grendel's next victim may be one of the joiners.
Where he goes will be affected by the Governments 'traffic light' system for travel. In any case, I hope that he has a good relaxing time and that sun and salt water helps to cure any bumps and bruises he has.
It's a pity about the injury, but I'm glad that he will probably be getting a new contract. If he's fit at the end of pre season, he'll need time to catch up and just having recovered from a knee injury won't help him get ready for next season.
