The worst player I've ever seen. Arsenal 5 - Villa 0. Genuinely, never seen anyone worse.

I saw him walking down the high street with his entourage one Sunday night while I was out walking the dog . There must have been about 30 of them, agents , flunkies , women , kids , it was quite a sight .

Probably diverts into a question of have we ever had a good player called Carlos?

I was going to say 'Carlos Gill' but wasn't that Carles or summat? It's close enough.

Carlos Cuellar. Not that great but better than Diego.

Not sure he crosses the threshold of “good”.

He certainly doesn't, all fart and no shit as he was aptly described at the time. Cuellar was shite too, Konsa playing at RB bring back memories of Cuellar's struggles with the ball at his feet.

A YT video of Carles Gil would be good fun. He only scored three goals for us, but they were all absolute belters!

Win. I fancy Malan to start, think Buendia will get a start too, maybe even Bogarde replacing Tileman's to give him a breather.

Keep your eyes on the trains on Sunday. Overhead wires are down in Four Oaks. Will be quite the job to have the Cross City North back up and running for the game.

Just checked and trains are running today but planned engineering work means nothing running on the cross city line south of the city tomorrow.
