Evanilson has final say as the double completed over the gunners. Europe still possible but stuffed up many of the easier games

The race for the conference league spot is all on, providing Palace don't win the FA Cup, otherwise it looks like Villa will end up there.

Trent Alexander- Arnold has confirmed that he is not signing a new contract with Liverpool and that he will leave the club after 20 years with them on 30th June.
Almost certainly the 26-year-old Right Back will sign with Real Madrid on July 1st.

20 years WTF

Sounds like it was a classic to befit the first leg

Inter were my pick to win in from the round of 16 onwards (said this to a couple of mates) and now they're making every post a winner.
Man U and Betis to win the Europa and Conference leagues are my other picks too.

It has become easier to win the Europa and Conference leagues if you qualify for them without the bumping down of failed UCL and Europa teams. Bodo-Glimt v Spurs second leg will be fascinating given the home record of the Norwegian team and Spurs being somewhat flaky.

Somewhat? We can't stop anyone

The game was mega.
Yamine Lamal is out of this world.
Shearer summed it up best:
We expected a good game, but this? Thank you Inter Milan, thank you Barcelona for providing us with incredible entertainment and two great football matches.
"What we have witnessed has been something very special. It's been a pleasure to be here." -

Yup i think people are sleeping on this 2nd leg. It's so bloody cold up in Bodo that it makes it tough for any traveling side up there. Like playing the Drua in Fiji in Super Rugby, but with completely opposite climates.

I think playing them in May shouldn't be too bad - better than February anyway. Bodo have lost all of the away games in their Europa League run - and won all of their home games. Interesting.
PSG v Inter final - should be a good one. Didn't see this morning's game, reports were that Arsenal channeled 1980s Wimbledon in their approach to get it in the mixer - that's one way to avoid the press.

Yeah should get to a high of about 5 for the Bodo Spurs game, warm up there haha.
The thing with PSG is that their last 3 ties have been against English opposition. Italian sides set up completely different, they'll find things harder in the middle of the park and Inzaghi sets up with a traditional 3-5-2 formation, where the front 2 don't tend to press, it tends to come from guys like Barella and Mhyikatarian/Calhangnolou. They'll happily play 2nd and aim to frustrate PSG for as long as they can, whilst still being a threat up front with Martinez and Thuram with Dumfries and DiMarco playing high.
I may be wrong, but the more I think about it, the more I've convinced myself that Inter win it.

@African-Monkey if Jebbison was actually premier league worthy I suspect we get a draw lol

Yeah, looked like a repeat of the first fixture when Evanilson scores right at the end with a near post header from a free kick, but Jebbison needed to throw himself at the ball after Emi saved the initial header, instead, he allowed Cash to come in and clear.
Huge result for Villa, keeping our champions league hopes alive, and a bit of a disaster day for Bournemouth, with their European hopes in jeopardy after Brighton and Brentford also won.

Villa have qualified for Europe for three seasons in a row which is a massive achievement given where the team were when Unai Emery took over (one point off the relegation zone) and before that when Dean Smith took over (middle of the Championship and facing problems with the tax man).
Tottenham at home just before the UEFA Cup final and ManUtd away just after the UEFA Cup final looks like a bit of a dream run-in. So it's whether the team can perform in those last two games and how the other clubs do (including Man City and Crystal Palace in the FA Cup Final) that determine which European Competition AVFC play in next year.

I remember reading that he scored against Wrexham in non-league play years ago. Not long after he began his climb to the top

This is an amazing achievement by Chris Wood. Only 52 players have scored 20 or more goals in a season. There are some well-known players who aren't on the list.
