They've got one or two players like Ciarán McIlroy, he's one of the best players in the league.

Harry Wood is there, thereabouts.

Paddy Barrett has done brilliant for him.

I think they've got the best goalkeeper in the league.

So therefore, you know, the there thereabouts, it's really, outside of the Shamrock Rovers, it feels like there's two, three teams that if they're good enough to knock them off the perch, there's an opportunity to do it this season.

Yeah, I think they are.

I think...

Because it's so competitive in the league, it's not like over the years we've often had two teams go head for head and we probably will this season.

But there's potential for Shell's Derry to go and win the league this season.

So I think Shell's squad is very, very good.

The challenge that everybody has is...

are you good enough to take it off Rovers?

I don't think Rovers have significantly improved.

I don't feel that they've sort of brought in three or four signings that are going to scare all of the other teams.

So therefore, the challenge for everybody else is, have you done enough to go and overtake them?

I think my concern is, I still think Rovers will win the league, but my concern is they've just stood still, but that doesn't mean others have done enough to overtake them.

Well, it finished at Villa Park this afternoon, Aston Villa 0, Everton 1.

In the build-up to the game, Vinnie, I was kind of looking at all the players' stats and recent form and that kind of thing.

It was actually hard to call a winner, but you kind of felt with their home record of late, how well they've been doing over the last number of weeks.

Aston Villa might just edge this against an Everton side that have been struggling without their AFCON players and also the injured players.
