I have not really gone on holiday until it is time to pick my team for europa and you need to sort all the need so many players trained by the club i cba sorting it out so i go on holiday for 1 day then come back so it picks it automatically
and friendlies why don't you just let your assitant take charge?
i go on holiday for international breaks (unless i'm an international manager), when i've finished my transfers i go on holiday til lthe season begins. and when i win the league i go on hols till July or whatever to start the next season
