    Mitrovic is a really good player, but boy does he need to calm down a bit.

    In the Villa v Arse game, Arsenal are really bad. Playing a Villa team which has to resort to bringing on Micah Rchards, and they just can’t score. Really don’t deserve 2nd.

    Edit: Spurs really don’t want this do they?

    Edit: Turns out Arsenal do want this.

    If this, from the start of the Chelski game, is how Spurs respond to pressure, then they’ll never win owt.

    Even Arsenal would have to take their hat off to this display of bottlin’ it

    Think since the Chelsea game Spurs have had nothing to play for, so maybe it’s a motivational issue?!

    Spurs. The new Arsenal. 😀

    Surely finishing above your arch rivals should be motivation enough? At least to beat an already relegated side with 10 men.

    So if you Utd want 4th, they’ll need to beat Bournemouth 19-0… Have they managed 19 shots all season?!

    I knew we didn’t want to rely on beating Stoke. Last week v Swansea and many dropped points for draws throughout the season did for us (I won’t blame 8 points dropped due to dodgy refereeing).

    I’d have thought that Bournemouth could just find a hotel and play it tomorrow, behind closed doors if necessary to avoid a policing issue? Does anyone care apart from the prize money situation, and they can surely sort that out in some way?

    robbie savage summed it up best [ and i hate him]
    Spurs managed to finish third in a two horse race

    He also pointed ut Sunderland scored more goals than Man U though

    Still we might put 19 past Bournemouth and get a CL place 😉

    Not sure if second or third makes any difference to CL seeding but its extra prize money and its the principal of fighting to the end of the season and yes of course the relative position to Arsenal matters particularly this year.

    Once again Chapeau to Leicester who won the league by 10 points, a proper spanking !

    Police at ManU said device was not viable – I assume that means it was a poorly made bomb rather than not a bomb

    Indeed, now it’s all over and you look at the table to see Leicester winning by TEN points…..its just incredible!

    Where on earth will they finish next year?

    Just looked at the table – how on earth did they even get in with a shout of Champions League scoring so few goals? Mind you – how did West Brom not get relegated only scoring 34?

    Football’s a funny old game. Sad I know but I’ll probably never get the opportunity to use this useless football statistic again but Man City were top scorers this season as they were in 1937 but that year they got relegated though.After being champions the year before. 😯

    As an ex-GK, and knowing how much everyone loves goals I’m tempting a flaming here, but a goal prevented is just as valuable in the final count as one scored at the other end.

    Bottom half.

    That’s the sort of thing (and worse) they said about Southampton after they lost so many players.

    I’ve no doubt CL football will stretch them fixture wise and be a distraction but my prediction … top half at least and qualify from their CL group

    Yes but GKs are notoriously mad and therefore say mad things so you are excused, no flaming.

    Might win one CL game but will be humiliated in a few as well. – did you see how long Man City took to adapt and look what they spent

    I think they will be lucky to make Europa from League

    Its a big ask this season.

    I think United have kept more clean sheets than anyone this season?

    It’s a kind of torture devised by LVG for people watching MOTD. Not only will you fail to see United have more than one shot on target, you’ll not see the opposition score either. So it’s actually even less fun than watching Villa!

    Anyway…. he’ll play De Gea up front for the Bournmouth match, who will score 20, thus getting us into the CL. You heard it here first! 😀

    Time for MOTD folks! And seeing Spurs get absolutely spanked by a ten man, already relegated team 😆

    OT device was a training device left by a private firm after a sniffer dog exercise, according to the BBC.

    “Following today’s controlled explosion, we have since found out that the item was a training device which had accidentally been left by a private company following a training exercise involving explosive search dogs.

    “While this item did not turn out to be a viable explosive, on appearance this device was as real as could be, and the decision to evacuate the stadium was the right thing to do, until we could be sure that people were not at risk.”

    I hope they have the budget to reimburse fans for their travelling and ticket costs 😯
