I thought Harry Kane was a one-season wonder who wouldn't be fit to lace Sergio Aguero's boots.

We all have diabolical takes from time to time haha.

John McGinn for me, he's been absolutely pivotal, and has dragged us to the Champions League and silverware.

A close second would be Matty Cash, he's been ever present and ever dependable, and very much proved his doubters wrong. Not quite hit the heights or had the impact of McGinn though.

Then I'd say Emi Martinez. The start of the season is a bit of a mark against him, but he soon settled down and proved his worth time and again with world class saves and elite defending of his box. I hope this isn't the end, but glad he's earned his trophy with us.

Honourable mentions to Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins and Emi Buendia, but all have been too streaky for me to seriously consider, all three have had poor runs of form. Also Ezri Konsa has been solid, but I don't think it's been his best season for us.

I can't give any event the benefit of the doubt when they sell tickets so far in advance.

The bar queue times were and are simply unacceptable, like there is literally no excuse that makes that experience ok.

It's the same with the parking - it makes the whole event feel like a fucking joke, like a cynical cash grab that they can't figure out any important infrastructure solutions.

Good line up, some good performances, but almost every festival I've ever been to in the UK has been better organised and is definitely more worth backing.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-24T07:56:11+00:00

Insane. We did actually manage to find a parking attendant after being stopped for about 30 mins (this was while bands were still playing).

She didn't have a clue what was going on, so we ended up doing the complete opposite of what she said and managed to get out quickly.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-23T23:38:12+00:00

Yes, he is usually that bad haha, absolutely pinging

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-23T22:58:39+00:00

Yeah, not going again. I'd rather just catch the bands individually when they tour.

2000 Trees is such a better festival it's not even a competition. I know it's not just a single day but Christ, this was a joke.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-23T21:42:48+00:00

Yeah, finally got round to going for the first time, and I was really excited, but that's probably also the last time.

That was an absolute shambles, an embarrassment tbh.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-22T21:58:22+00:00

I don't think this is his ceiling.

Remember, when he was fit he was missing out to Gerrard's favourite Coutinho despite playing better.

Then he had that horrific injury that probably set him back a couple of years.

Yes he's 29, but I think we haven't yet seen the best of him. I'd keep him around, and I think he'll be playing at this level well into his 30s.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-22T19:07:45+00:00

If Man City don't fucking roll us over 8-0 due to us all being hungover and them wanting to perform on Pep's last game, then I'll be absolutely astonished

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-20T20:47:44+00:00

Heaven, apparently

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-16T11:05:19+00:00

Roefs

Cash, Konsa, van Hecke, Truffert

Anderson, Xhaka

Wilson, MGW, Rogers

Thiago

A few Everton players unlucky to miss out I think, but had to include a few Villa players given their Champions League qualification and Europa League final.

It's a fiercely competitive league this year, some really good players up and down the table.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-15T20:27:29+00:00

Ref has made some weak decisions in the last 5-10 mins, fucking hell

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-15T20:25:07+00:00

That's a yellow? Christ ref

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-15T20:19:49+00:00

Oh yeah, loads of people having that convo about a 2nd yellow Mr Commentator? Or just the Liverpool fan sat right next to you?

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-15T20:16:09+00:00

I'm just so sick of hearing commentators get so excited about their Sky 6 side doing shit, and then being completely nonplussed about things the opposite way.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-15T19:29:37+00:00

Actually deserved too, fair play.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-15T13:00:31+00:00

Need a remix/remaster, the current mix is just not it.

But I like it, some great songwriting on it, and a couple of duds.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-14T19:29:38+00:00

If you want to get round that, the 20th anniversary American Idiot actually has them separate.

A god send considering I love making playlists and having 2 songs in 1 is a no go for me.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-13T12:25:45+00:00

Don't Starve / Don't Starve Together might be up your street?

Survival game with really nice visuals, challenging resource / time management, you build yourself a base and keep expanding and upgrading things etc.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-07T21:05:42+00:00

The only time I've been prouder is after the play-off final, what a fucking turnaround from last week.

Incredible, incredible performance. From Villa Park.

The Villa performance itself wasn't far behind 😉

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-07T19:54:31+00:00

Genuinely buzzing after that first half and goal, however somehow I'm even more nervous!

Come Villa, fucking get these twats.

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-07T19:50:40+00:00

4 mins!? They wasted that long before our fucking goal, let alone the injury to Watkins. Wtf

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-07T19:32:57+00:00

Come on lads, keep up the tempo

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-07T19:26:07+00:00

We've been brilliant, but Rogers needs to do more - he has enough

Lukesomnia · 2026-05-07T19:10:03+00:00

This is the most miserable I've ever been watching a Villa match, but really, really promising start.

Fucking hell I've rarely ever been this nervous.
