Bologna FC 1909 v Aston Villa Pre-Match

[Olneythelonely]

Word of warning: take your own pineapple.

Some of their pizzerias don't stock it. Twats.

I had apple on a pizza in Italy. They’re not as fussy as they’d have you believe.

Melon and ham is a classic as well. The hypocritical freaks.

(I Hate pineapple on pizza - when it's a tomato pizza. Name one other time you'd have tomato and pineapple, it's ungodly. But pineapple with prosciutto and maybe smoked cheese? focking lovely.)

Bologna playing today. A few injuries to key players would be useful.

Martinez

Cash
Konsa
Torres
Maatsen

Onana
Tielemans

McGinn
Bailey (God help us)

Rogers
Watkins

Not sure at all about Bailey away from home. Not sure about him at Villa Park either but that's besides the point. Rogers to the left,  McGinn right Tielemans at 10 and Luiz into midfield. Bit more secure but still very strong.

Tammy might be in the reckoning for a start after the training trip, hopefully bit more in tune with his teammates. Ollie to start at Forest on Sunday. Emerys going to rotate a bit I reckon. Digne/Maatsen. Lindelof/Konsa, Tammy/Ollie. Luiz/Barkley

That's never worked out well for us and in any case when they walk out in front of my eyes on Thursday I want see their best XI.

Who are their star players? I'm only afraid of Beppe Signori.

If all our travelling brethren could remember that ragù bolognese is a meat, rather than a tomato-based sauce, that'd save a whole bucket load of cringe back here at Glynn's Trattoria & Shaved Meat Parlour, Codsall. We live and die on authenticity.

Eating is cheating.

I often make a pear and Gorgonzola pizza with walnuts. A mint pesto rather than tomato sauce is the way to go.

Think Castro is dangerous and Englishman Rowe seems to be doing well.

That sounds awesome!

Surely somewhere will sell a traditional full English breakfast .

[eye digress]

Squeaked past lowly Cremonese today, albeit away.

Rowe scored again, so maybe he's their danger man.

I'm struggling to take them that seriously, actually. They were so ineffective in the three ties we've had with them these past few years. No doubt Unai has everyone on their toes, though.

Only two isnt it?

[Halfway to Moseley]

When we played them in the champions league I think their big danger man was Dan Ndoye who then went to Forest.

I went to the group fixture against them earlier this season and I couldn’t tell you a single thing about them or what happened in the game.

Well I certainly can't remember a third.
