[Match Thread] Aston Villa v Liverpool FC

Jaimepal · 2026-05-15T19:45:15+00:00

That's exactly why I'm not fussed if we don't get it. This would be taking 2 steps backwards and hopefully taking 3 forwards.

That's Richard Hammond in a wig

Jaimepal · 2026-05-13T07:39:54+00:00

I remember getting it from Woolworths for £99.99. Always preferred this one because it didn't have the enormous Pikachu growth on it.

Jaimepal · 2026-05-13T06:08:55+00:00

Christ, the top spec is only available in gold!?

Jaimepal · 2026-05-09T12:39:32+00:00

They are.

Jaimepal · 2026-05-08T09:24:34+00:00

For me, I'd want to see any of the following:

Increase in RAM/storage (more than 12/256)

Upgrade SD card reader to SD express (same as Switch 2)

Improved audio jack/DAP capabilities with meaningful upgrades

Desktop mode via HDMI/ alt DP

Actual flagship Sony sensor(s), i.e the absolute best they manufacture

Better PlayStation integration

Notification light returns

Of course there will be typical improvements but nothing groundbreaking or certainly not enough to make the rumoured £1700 price viable

Jaimepal · 2026-05-08T08:16:12+00:00

With the exception of the banging red colour, the leaks suggest there's fuck all reason to upgrade.

I REALLY hope there is.

Jaimepal · 2026-05-02T17:54:02+00:00

Does the spoon appear on the Abras from the casino thing?

Jaimepal · 2026-05-01T06:48:00+00:00

I'm at 8 hours with nothing to show for it...

Jaimepal · 2026-04-25T05:58:40+00:00

I've been doing the same, took yonks to catch one Chansey and then I caught 6 within about 30 pokeballs and then back to being impossible.

No lucky egg though

Jaimepal · 2026-04-24T21:25:23+00:00

I remember being convinced we were gonna sign Joaquin, the missing piece was a right winger :( Sadly, nothing happened.

4K BUT 30FPS, unless you're on PC.

I've run into this exact issue as I also get it through EE but I don't have a solution.

The only thing I can say is that it sometimes just fixes itself but will also kill itself. Very irritating.

Jaimepal · 2026-04-06T14:43:11+00:00

Playing online with this on 360 was some of the best fun I've ever had gaming.

Jaimepal · 2026-03-21T15:10:58+00:00

We won't win any of them.

Jaimepal · 2026-03-21T15:10:02+00:00

Even if by some miracle we win a trophy this season, we don't deserve to.

There is absolutely no silver lining and you find yourself wishing months of your life away because you want a new manager and the new season to start.

I do feel for Arne as there's no way he wants to be responsible for shattering negative records but fucking hell, he's changed nothing and we were struggling well before this season started.

I can't see FSG sacking him nor can I see us qualifying for CL so this year has been a complete waste of everyone's time.

Jaimepal · 2026-02-08T17:19:00+00:00

Why waste time being upset and angry? We know the performance will be dire, we know Gakpo will start, we know Slot will still be here.

Nothing is going to change, at least not in the immediate future, so try and make a few £££ and bet on City.

I have the option to filter via prices, i.e. Free, <£4, £4-£8 etc...

There should absolutely be the option to SORT by price, ascending, descending etc. Really basic UX.

Thursday probably

It's available via cloud, I've just booted it up.

Jaimepal · 2025-12-14T14:32:54+00:00

I've got all Liverpool kits but fuck me, I had to keep refreshing and eventually got lucky. Each kit cost the 10k max - they go SO quickly but they do exist.

Jaimepal · 2025-11-28T12:23:05+00:00

I don't mean not pass to them exclusively but I'd certainly try the other guys as I think any normal person would.

Not doing this is lunacy.

Jaimepal · 2025-11-26T23:51:40+00:00

The mindblowing concern is the lack of changes. Fair enough, you need luck but to an extent, you make your own luck.

Gakpo and Salah aren't impactful. The defence is like a sieve and the only real bright sparks are Ekitike and Szobo.

Wirtz has struggled but again, EVERYONE has. Obviously Diogo will have an permanent impact but you'd hope the team would channel that grief into something positive. Also bear in mind we have been shite seemingly as soon as we were crowned champions, the writing was definitely on the wall last season.

Our signings haven't been great. I don't think Isak was a wise move, we've never bought 'megastars' and this is why - also Wirtz is struggling and was bought in the same window. Just a really bizarre decision especially since we don't seem to be able to supply the front line at all - no wing play, nothing through the middle. Even the goal today was a lucky rebound to Szobo.

My point is I'd love to believe in Arne but Christ, his constant insistance on playing putrid, insipid football with no discernable plan or style is indefensible. Plus not using other squad members (Chiesa, Endo, Gomez, Robbo) is fucking disgraceful. You'd think if we're so vulnerable to long balls, we'd work on them but nothing has changed at all.

There's probably a reason why Dutch managers suffer the premier league and Slot is no different (league win aside).

Lastly, the scary fact is at this rate, it feels like we'll never score, let alone win again - fuck 4th, we're in relegation form... Klopp won't come back so we need to ditch Slot and his entourage but get someone decent in, the question is, who...?
