Only if we win our remaining games. Well played Everton nevertheless. Barry is so much better than Beto btw, no idea why Moyes doesn’t start him. 

I think you will .

 

And Man City lose points at Bournemouth a?

Made my peace with it when Porto gifted them the QF. Stars are aligning.

I see BBC are debating for Gibbs-White to go to the World Cup as No.10.

 

Cant see it personally. He's had a good season but there are at least 4 players ahead of him in the pecking order - Palmer, Bellingham, Foden and Rogers. 

 

Does he even make the squad given that level of competition?

It'll be similar to when Maddison went to (or at least, was due to go to) the 2022 World Cup.

 

Was comfortably the most in form English number 10 but there was no chance he was playing ahead of those who are more settled in the team.

 

If Bellingham is fit then he'll start in a 3 with Rice and Anderson IMO.

Genuinely think Arsenal will have the title wrapped up before the final day. I think Man City will drop points in one of their next three games and Arsenal's run-in is as kind as you could ask for at this stage.

That West Ham v Arsenal is almost a cup final, West Ham win it'll drag them out bottom three and dent in Arsenal's title race. win for Arsenal that's pretty much the title race decided and possibly Tottenham's chance to pull away leaving West Ham behind. Draw more of bad result for West Ham than Arsenal, especially with that West Ham goal difference.

Arsenal will see them off quite easily I’d imagine, as they will do Burnley. 
 

Crystal Palace might give them a game, however they should see this out to secure the title quite convincingly now really.

Bournemouth right back suspended accused of messaging a 15 year old. Every time I've seen him he's looked awful so doing them a favour.

I've just seen the text exchange. Absolutely sickening. He says he likes small girls and has never been with a 15 year old. Then he asks if she'd do 'grown up things'

Proper nonce behaviour if true 

[Jimothy]

Disgusting messages from Alex Jiminez. 

 

Bournemouth have reacted better than Sunderland did when Adam Johnson was in a similar situation, and have suspended him.

 

I expect him to be playing for Marsaille next season.

What the **** 

 

[foxfanazer]

What a wrong un. Genuinely, what the **** is wrong with people?

[foxfanazer]

Just had a look on Bournemouth's forum and they're justifying it by saying it was entrapment and his lack of English

Bruno Fernandes named FWA player of the season .

 

Certainly has had a fine season with loads of assists ( a record ?)

All the more impressive when for half the season he was being badly and obviously misused by Amorim. His chance creation numbers compared to everyone else in the league are ridiculous

Go Brentford  

[Nalis]

I dont care how well run Brighton, Brentford and Bournemouth are, they are still the three most bland clubs to have ever graced the premier league

[Corky]

No atmosphere with a team chasing a league title.

[davieG]

Just watching Brentford on the attack oh what joy it is to see passes put in front of an attacking winger instead of to their feet or as we do behind them. Such a simple thing to do. 

[Leicesterpool]

Keith Andrews done great job there, not bad for a manager i thought would be sacked first.

Define bland? All 3 are playing some attractive attacking football for years now.
