EPL 16/17
-
For all the goals scored, that was a pretty ho-hum final day - the top 4 won with almost embarrassing ease (although Liverpool lucky there wasn't a penalty for the foul on Bamford at 0-0).
I'm still unsure about Kane in terms of him being "world-class". He hasn't done it an top international level or UCL yet and I'm not sure he has enough about him to be as successful at that level where defences are so much better. He is a great finisher though and Spurs are playing so well, he is getting lots of chances - often with huge amounts of space to operate in.
Terry being subbed at 26 minutes was awful and cringe-worthy and hopefully not a precedent.

Fucking Man U win the UEFA Cup, meaning despite being pretty ordinary all year, they actually end up with a better season than Liverpool. A couple of trophies and the Champs League next year beats 4th place any day of the week. Shit.
Not going to lie, I reeeaaalllly wanted them to lose this morning

So Arsenal does win some silverware afterall. The BFG has his first start in over a year and puts in a MOTM performance.
The best thing is that Wenger beats Whisky nose to become the most successful FA Cup manager of all time. I still think he should go though.
Edit: Wenger has beaten the record he shared with George Ramsay, the manager of the Aston Villa teams from the late 1800s to early 1900s. Ferguson has 5 wins. Arsenal now have won the FA Cup 13 times, one more than ManU.

There are rumours that suggest Wenger will receive a 2 year extension. Spurs fans will rejoice

As long as we continue to win more trophies than Spurs each season, I'm happy

Wenger stays and I will be doing a Crucial and switching allegiances.

We'll have an extra 30K seats in the new WHL mate!!!

That is quite possible as the owners are divided on whether Wenger should go.
However, as a Spurs fan you would be happy to make an FA Cup final, much less win one!
LOL. Yes indeed. Now we get to play at Wembley every other week!! Shame we can't win there...

@canefan Yeah, the CL record at Wembley was poor. West Ham struggled too at London Stadium.
I heard one of the comms mention the surface was a lot softer than WHL. The pitch is a bit bigger too. Better get the groundsman to mark out a smaller pitch. When we move into the new digs we will need to get used to a bigger pitch anyway. Part of Wenger's problem is that it is becoming increasingly difficult to get value in the players' market. You either have to spend like crazy (The Russian and the Sheik) or you build from within and look to buy up and comers (Spurs).

It looked ridiculously soft today, lots of slipping and sliding going on. Not sure whether they were watering it to make sure it will last the long weekend with 2 playoff games to come but it would be wearing to play a whole season on it.

@canefan They leaked nine against Fulham in two games FFS
Glad it was them not Reading but it could be a short sojourn for the Terriers
Still Jean-Luc will doubtless be very happy
It's quite an achievement to reach the EPL via the play-offs without scoring a goal in open play. And yes, raging favourites to come straight down but then again so were Bournemouth and they survived well.
Just saw that Wenger has 2 more years at the Arse .... any Arsenal fans pleased with that?
