Peak of graph for cases anticipated June / July.
Time required for a mid season break, transfers, pre season training etc. Be lucky to start again before October.
I agree that they will still want a break. They are having an enforced break from matches right now, and would have another 2 week break between seasons. I take your point that they might NEED to train those breaks, but realistically, every team and every player would be in the same position whatever the NL decided was appropriate. So no real need for concern then.
