Darren Bent and David Bentley

• This is the most likely pair of PL footballers I can find with a combined total of 450 appearances. Bent has 276 appearances, and Bentley has 174. There are other possibilities, (see below), but based on the following evidence this pair are the most likely
• They're both have strong London connections. Bent is from Tooting and Tottenham was the last club Bentley played for.
• They were teammates at Tottenham - Max's second team - during the 2008–2009 season
• Their careers are right in the "Soccer AM glory years" wheelhouse, i.e. 2000s and 2010s, so more likely to be recognised by Max than a player that retired in the mid-90s
• They've worked in the media post-retirement. It's quite likely Max had either or both of them on his TalkSport or Soccer AM shows at some point
• They're of the right level (mid-ranking) to be recognised by Max and spotted in Teddington. Cristiano Ronaldo and Paolo DiCanio fit the bill in terms of era and PL appearances, but it's harder to imagine both of those checking out of a Teddington hotel.

Oops

The correct appearances figure for Bentley is 184 which means he and Bent have a combined total of 460

On Lidl's website, it says that this window vacuum cleaner will be available in store from 20 April.

How long do items typically last in Lidl's middle aisle? I appreciate that something very popular could sell out almost immediately, but do Lidl rotate the middle aisle stock every week, or just leave it there indefinitely until it sells out?

If anyone has seen this item recently in the middle aisle of a Dublin 8 Lidl, please let me know.
