A lovely end to the season. 8th an haven't scored at home in like 6 games or something. But seriously, 8th in the prem. Another good season even though some may say we did badly. We finished in the exact spot we should have done.

Well last season you finished above Chelsea. Should have done that again really...

Let's look at it differently shall we. Last season we finished above the defending champions... this year we did the same.

Now on to the summer to speculation of how many of our players are leaving, for silly amounts of money and how we 'can't cope' with all the changes. etc etc



Hmm, pie.

Over half the league finished above the defending champions this year though Try and do it 3 years in a row!

As for summer speculation, I'm just hoping they'll be plenty about who will be the top south coast club. Bournemouth were very close to usurping that title this season, perhaps they'll take it next time!

Don't belittle our achievement.

 

Bournemouth do, well run and a good team. I hope King stays and continues this impressive run of form. Brighton coming up as well, although think they'll struggle. 

My main question at the moment is how long Spurs keep Kane.  Spurs have money sure but can you see them winning anything? Really? A big boy might come sniffing.



Hmm, pie.

Hard to really imagine Kane leaving though. Even if he did want to go somewhere else either for more money than Spurs were willing to offer or better chances of trophies I can't see them being willing to sell him to one of the other English clubs. And English players rarely move abroad so... where could he go?

If they are that good, if they are the best. Real and/or Barca (see Bale, Beckham, Lineker and Owen... McManaman too I guess... oh and Jonathon Woodgate).

It's rare but if you are the best of the best, you go to the best clubs. Tottenham are good but the best?



Hmm, pie.

so Chelsea's victory parade has been cancelled

remember though guys, terrorists totally aren't winning



Ajax might be missing goalkeeper Onana today, Dutch media is reporting he has a bit of a fever per "reliable sources", although he still was at the training today. IF he misses the game that's a huge loss for Ajax because their back-up goalie is significantly worse.
