    <p>He really has them playing the press these days - only managed to see the first half but they totally swamped Villarreal in their own half who continued to try to pass themselves out of trouble but kept on losing possession. Against better sides it might backfire and leave their dodgy defence exposed.</p>

      <p>Arsenal got the draw this morning against City so only need a point against Villa on the final day. If Man U win their game in hand they will be above City so have it in their hands.....</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>.... and then wouldn't it be delightful for Liverpool to win Eurpopa to then steal that final place away from United!  Oh how I would chuckle.  If we lose to Villa, I willl slap my own smile!</p>

            <p>I'm surprised there is no mention of today's game.  West Ham beats Man Utd to help Man City's chances of playing in the CL next year.  :)</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p>BUT, the big news is that the Hammer's winning goal was scored by Winston Reid, who has the honour of scoring the last ever goal at Upton Park. </p>

              <p>Leaves Man U with a chance of 4th but if results go a certain way, they could finish as low as 8th. Given Sunderland could end the relegation battle tomorrow morning, it could be the only excitement of final day.</p>
              <p>
              Meanwhile Burnley and Middlesborough into the Premier League, Burnley doing the bounce again and Middlesborough after lurking around promotion for a few seasons. Brighton v Sheff Wednesday and Hull v Derby in the play-offs, current form suggests it will be a Brighton v Hull final.</p>

                <p>and there goes the interest of the final day. Relegation confirmed for Norwich and Newcastle, with Sunderland surviving. Fuck. I wanted Rafa to pull it off, and Fat Sam to get relegated.</p>
                <p> </p>
                <p>The last day pretty much becomes a celebration, as i think only City and Man U have anything to play for. </p>

                  <p>No, thats not true.  There is everything to play for. If Chelsea beat Leicester, then it will prove that they are the better team, and in reality were the real winners.</p>
                  <p> </p>
                  <p>If that doesn't work, then John Terry will throw Vardy's shoe over the Harding stand to prove it.</p>

                            <p>Exactly!  As another long-suffering Arsenal fan we can console ourselves with the fact that Arsenal did beat Leicester City - twice (they've only lost 3 times to date).</p>
