To be fair the only way to succeed these days is with a chequebook. Now, I personally don't like that, but Gerrard being a "chequebook manager" means he's an ideal fit because the only teams winning the league are those with massive bank accounts. Does Guardiola improve players? Not directly, no. I mean if you stick 30-40 world class players in training sessions together then they will improve, but that's not Guardiola doing anything special, that's just a side effect of spending £1 billion on players. I think people look at Leicester winning the league and believe that is still possible, but it's not. That was a fluke, a one off, and Leicester will never win the league again unless they break out the chequebook. If you want Villa to be the team that improves players, then you're also wanting a Villa team that will never win anything again because that model is dead. Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs are not improving players, they are buying world class players and doing the bare minimum to keep them world class.

Not to mention I think the score line flattered us a bit. We might have been 2 goals up, but we had still spent 75 minutes chasing the ball. You cannot chase the ball for 75 minutes, have 30% possession for most of the game and not tire massively heading into the final 15 minutes of the game. People might have been surprised by our "collapse", but it wasn't surprising at all. This is what Man City do. If they don't play you off the park by scoring 6 goals, they'll wear you out until you can't defend their attacks anymore. This is what they do, I don't know why people are surprised.

I'm pretty chill about this game. I would love to see us win, but it's the last 37 games that have dictated our current league position so this match feels like a nothing game. We can't finish lower than 14th (even if Southampton win today), and we can climb as high as 10th today if we win and results go in our favour, but this is about as chill as I've been on the final day in years.

Ubisoft+ Classics is available for both the PS+ Extra and PS+ Premium tiers, so people don't need to pay for Premium to get access to those games if they don't want to. Which given how lacking the "classic games" line up is for PS+ Premium is a good thing. I'll be going PS+ Extra when it launches. I don't see anything in the list of "classic games" that makes Premium worth playing for.

According to everything I've seen online, we're one of the favourites to win. We'll see how that goes.

FilmSaw #6 - https://filmsaw.com I'll probably do terribly at these as I don't watch many movies anymore, but todays just so happened to be a movie I watch pretty much once a month.

I don't like that UK's entry is getting so much hype, praise and media attention in the rest of Europe. I mean on paper it's a good thing as it should mean that we won't finish last, but I don't think can stomach my expectations being raised only for them to be trashed later tonight when it still finishes bottom three.
