What the fuck was that Swansea player doing there? lol

Well, fuck them. They can't have both, Bazoer & Gündogan!
They can have both, can't they? 
Yeah it's really close provided Spurs win tomorrow. Anything other than a win makes things a hell of a lot easier for Leicester. Put it this way, if Spurs draw tomorrow, Leicester just need a single win to guarantee the title.

I have a feeling City will spend about £200m +. Sell Yaya to China for £30m-40m.

Yeah Swansea looked the definition of nothing to play for but credit Leicester for going in for the kill. Title winning mentality that.

Eintracht 2:1 Mainz, still alive.
Yeah, looks pretty interesting down there. I'd still like Hoffenheim to go down, but that's unrealistic at this point. I won't cry if either Bremen or Stuttgart go down either, they're long overdue imho.
I'd start with
a) I don't tihnk Gaal will be there next season anyway,
b) If he is, unless he fixes whatever the fuck it is that kills players 2 years running, we won't do shit
c) The only people to blame for Memphis being sub par for the majority of the year are Memphis or Gaal. Gaal at least would play him in his natural position unlike everyone else. Hasn't helped that he's looked like a greedy bugger in front of goal.
IF we were able to have a solid back 4 of Shaw, Blind, Smalling and Varela (or some other recognised right back)
IF he were to keep playing Schneiderlin
IF he stopped playing Mata on the right hand side
Maybe we can win the league. Maybe.
While we play better football than we did under Moyes, that was about the lowest bar you could set for success.
I have to say however, he did the clearout that was dearly needed for years. The only players that left that I wish we still had are Rafael and Chica.

Timely reminder yesterday that we're still mentally atrocious when ahead.
He should give Ward the rest of the season, he looked good in the Bournemouth game, we most likely aren't going to finish above West Ham or United, so there's nothing to lose if he's just as poor.

Yep. It's happened far too many times this season. In total control one minute, total capitulation the next.

Definitely in the Premier League. But I doubt he wants to try out a relatively unproven goalkeeper in the remaining Europa League games.

If Alli didn't win young player I'd have called fix
Kane deserved the big boy award, I know as a clearly un-biased judge. Fair play to Mahrez
Apart from watching the gooners continue to go out in a blaze of glory today has been bad. So annoyed at Swansea.

I remember being annoyed at Everton when they faced Man City like a week or so after that infamous Chelsea game in the 2013/2014 season. Barkley gave Everton the lead and then Everton just fell over like a sack of shit. Had Everton took points off Man City that day, Liverpool would still have their destiny in their own hands going into THAT Crystal Palace game :/
That freaking season man...
Eintracht 2:1 Mainz, still alive.
with an own goal lol
They don't deserve to stay up, in all fairness. But I would prefer Stuttgart to go down.
Spurs better pray that they're ahead of Leciester on the last match day, because Chelsea are going to try their hardest to throw their game against Leceister to prevent Spurs winning the league. Expect to see Mikel upfront and Pedro in goal on that day, count on maybe one or two own "accidental" own goals from Chelsea as well.

I'm not going to be that mad if we lose to Leicester, we play better football and we have more potential to be in the same place next year. I can't wait to go to some CL games and see where we go with this spectacular team
Wouldn't surprise me, fucking snakes.

Seems very harsh. Admittedly they've struggled with scoring goals recently, but they're 12th in the table! They would have taken that at the start of the season.
Plus he doesn't have a say on transfers.

Dont agree tbh
Was surprised by how much effort Everton put in that match. Didn't look devastated to lose, but didn't make it easy for City. May well have got something out of it if not for a brilliant save by Hart as well.

Lolol, maybe you should've been better than Leicester this season rather than looking for others to do you a favour hint:
we won't

Why does he wear the mask!?
Very stupid of them, if true.

We'll need every penny for Gündogan replacement...and maybe even more replacements ;(
Yeah, wouldn't risk him in the Europa (well the first leg at least), but give him the rest of the Prem games to see how good he is, if he impresses, might save us a good bit when the transfer window opens, if he disappoints loan him out again, and make replacing Mignolet with someone decent, a top priority.
Stupid if true, isn't it their first season since coming back up? If so, 12th is a pretty solid position for your first season. Can see that blowing up in their face if they sack him.

Im not sure of the circumstances but Flores didn't get them promoted either, Slavisa Jokanovic (now Fulham manager, via Maccabi Tel Aviv) did so it seems they definitely have high standards...
Idiotic if they go through with it. What were they expecting this season? Europe?
you're like bizarro milch. pure negativity
own goal is a bit harsh, I guess vidals goal was also an own goal?
Jokanovic was their fourth manager last season, although one left for health reasons.
yeah. they have been pure shit for a while now.
Freiburg will replace them, what a time. Wonder whose place will RB Leipzig take.

You lot have actually got to play chelsea before Leicester play then so I'd worry about that first if I were you.
Also as for whether you'll have a chance like this again, don't bank on it. All the big boys will be back again next season so it will be a mighty battle to even get in the top 4 again, nevermind win the thing.
I dont even think arsenal will finish in the top 4 again next season if wenger is still here. It would be bloody typical if he fucks off the one season we dont get top 4 and then leaves us in tatters.
