I used to work with a girl who's boyfriends job was to buy fruit and veg for supermarkets.

She said the only difference between cheaper supermarkets are more expensive ones was the more expensive ones charter aircraft to deliver their produce, whereas cheaper markets produce came by boat.

Meaning, the more expensive stuff should last 3-4 days longer than the cheaper stuff.

I know anecdotally we'll all have instances where that isn't true, but then that would be an issue with that markets management not selling that produce quick enough, so the older stuff lingers around longer than it otherwise would. 

She said the suppliers would largely be the same, maybe the more expensive shops get first pick of the produce?  Not sure. 

But it was interesting all the same.

It’s honourable sha have put up that plaque, but trust a blues fan to tarnish it with “first club to honour in this way” nonsense. Just let the plaque serve its memorable purpose and try to leave the “haha this makes us better than villa!!1111” shit out of it? 

Yea, absolutely.

"YOU SHOULD DO THE SAME"

It's taken you 50 years to put that plaque up, dipshit.  Now's not the time to have a dig.

That said, I imagine they've been saving up the £30 it cost for the last 50 years the big bunch of dickheads.

Except they regularly played Raheem Stirling who ran up every blind alley known to man.

Hence selling him to Chelsea for 360 trillion pounds

I'd like to have him with a chant using Miss Dynamite's song because I want to hear the Holte sing in the Alto range.

Quality He does hate us doing well though. They were talking about Liverpools remains big games and he didn't mention the biggest one which by logic is obviously Villa.

I have a dirty feeling we'll beat them too 

Sell.

That's fair. I applaud you for giving him some credit something I struggle with

I do too usually! The goblin face shite hawk

Sorry I should have mentioned that you probably meant league. To be fair to Ollie though if he took penalties he would very close to 25+. 

I know what you mean though. He offers so much more than just goals. 12 assists is class for a centre forward.

Yea absolutely, he's a wonderful player. 

I think a part of me thinks that chance where he was 1 v 1 against his CB and he twisted and turned and couldn't get his shot off?  I think people like Kane and Haaland score that chance.  Tiny margins and he'll probably work on things like that to prove me wrong!  But right now, its just my opinion

He has 26 goals in all competitions. Could make it to 30 with games remaining.

Should have said league goals, sorry.

Made me laugh that sour faced helmet Danny Murphy accrediting Morgan Rogers (and other players) ability to Man City on MOTD2 last night. Didn't even mention the Unai Emery affect which is clearly the biggest factor at play here.

Think he was just saying that those youngsters who have been at the city academy all seem to have a great awareness of space, and to be honest I don't see a lot wrong with that. 

I don't think anyone really thinks he'll outscore Haaland or Kane, they are just naturally better finishers and hit the ball "cleaner" than Ollie does, more regularly.

But when it comes to "all round play" and "who does more for your team" (other than score shit loads of goals, which is pretty handy), then you'd choose Ollie. 

I don't think he'll ever be a 25+ season striker, but we don't need him to be.  15+ with 5-10 assists is more than good enough!

We'll be in 4 major tournaments next season, we need as many quality players as we can get to go deep into 3 tournaments. 

Grow up! 

Brilliant player, keep him at all costs.

He has to play a little more conservatively when Kamara is out, and that just means you take a little of his flair away. 

Still a good player, but he's not going to be able to affect attacking as much without his insurance policy behind him.  

We'll be in 4 major tournaments next season, we need as many quality players as we can get to go deep into 3 tournaments. 

One of Eze, Olise or Semenyo (from Bournemouth) please.

I think we're 4 good signings away from a title run, when you think we've got Emi B, Tyrone, Ramsey, Kamara coming back sometime next season.

A quality RB so we can keep Esri at CB and challenge Cashy. 

It would take another worldie season, against freak FC, but we'd be in the challenge.

Probably, and this depends on the sauce, 7-10 years. 

Those are rookie numbers.

Let me put it this way. If an away tie against Lille intimidates us, we have no business being in the Champions League.

How are we intimidated when we've been knocking it around the back for 30 mins?

Forward passes haven't presented themselves, so we've not taken chances.  We now have a half of football to play at 0-0.
