Was a hell of a spectacle for the neutral I must say.

Can’t say I’m surprised by the result.

Still both clubs have it in their hands. Win out and the title likely awaits as I doubt both teams will do so.

Arsenal do have the easier draw but will have half the break time for at least the next 2 weeks.

PSG vs Bayern Munich was an absolute belter

Hard to see Arsenal or Atletico winning the final if that form keeps up

In a 1 off game anything could happen.

Wouldn’t mind seeing athletico win personally.

Good game between Everton and City
Shame they didnt hang on, but Arsenal will take it.

Beat West Ham and it’s over I reckon.

Last big hurdle. Hammers playing reasonably and fighting for their life.

If City lose to Brentford
Maybe we rest the entire first team against West Ham to spite Tottenham ???

Was done as soon as the whistle blew vs west ham. Burnley and Palace have nothing to play for and Palace have a European cup final a week later that they’ll want to protect their players for.

Couldn’t even keep it interesting until final day of the season. Oh well at least we’ve got the final relegation spot up for grabs.

See ya pep don’t let the door hit ya on the door on your way out.

Arsenal should win the title anyway barring a bad injury run.
:thumbsup

To be fair not a hard prediction. There were only two contenders with Arsenal ahead of Man City. The rest were just making up the numbers.

8 English clubs qualified for Europe. Must be close to a record number.

CL: Arsenal, Man City, Man Utd, Villa, Liverpool.
EC: Bournemouth, Sunderland
EL: Brighton

At the other end of the table, Spurs survived by beating Everton 1-0. West Ham, Burnley & Wolves are relegated. Coventry, Ipswich & Hull to replace them next season.

Arsenal is going to be hard to beat again for the title. And they no longer have the pressure of not winning one anymore.

Well done to young Aussie Lucas Herrington on his EPL debut. Hull knocked off Man Utd 2-0 too lol.
