Catholics get a confirmation name to add to the list.

Barnabas for me.

Barrabas for me.

Jokes I was never baptised, getting flung into Hell when I pop off the mortal.

You can keep me company then

It is easier for a Bailey Pegasus Grande to pass through the eye of a needle than for a slum landlord to enter the Kingdom of Wem.

I'm all in favour of anyone who is Spanish and goes by three names.

He sounds like a Jesuit. I know nothing about the guys mentioned but surely it indicates that Unai isn't planning on leaving B6 in the foreseeable future. It also bodes well for NSWE backing him with the resources he requires.

Martin for me, after St. Martin de Porres. I'm sure Risso will agree it was a fine choice.

From Peru, he was from Africa I think. My oldest went to St. Martin de Porres primary school in Moseley

FT: Brentford 1-1 Aston Villa

Villa have scored in all 19 Premier League matches under Unai Emery.

This is the longest Premier League scoring streak by a club under a new manager, surpassing the 18 by Mike Walker's Norwich City in 1992 and Carlo Ancelotti's Chelsea in 2009.

He was waiting to bring them on before they scored.

I know but it had been one way traffic for 20 minutes. Appreciate it's small margins but who knows what might have happened if he had made them a few minutes earlier.

I'm being a bit facetious but with the standards Emery sets, it wouldn't surprise me if he was annoyed at himself for not doing it sooner.

First ever manager in the Premier League to see his side score in every one of his first 19 games.
