WTF is up with Tottenham? Their chance to finish above Arsenal, which I'm sure their fans would have really loved, and they blow it so badly. Getting thrashed 5-1 against a relegated team? Seriously, WTF?

Oh, and glad to see we've secured Champions League football next year. Well... not quite, but Utd aren't going to beat Bournemouth 19-0 when they finally play their game, so yeah 4th is effectively ours

Congrats.

Curious if this will affect Van Gaal fate.

Leicester city scored 5 less goals than Chelsea did during the previous season. Not bad at all!

Tottenham thought they were close to winning the title.... yeah right. A draw plus 2 losses.

Good last win for saints, confirmed 6th or better.

Hmm, pie.

Can Man U pay Bournemouth to lose? They have nothing to gain from winning. Would that be legal?

Seriously? It was a fake device left over from a training exercise? Welp, somebody at the training company is gonna be feeling pretty stupid right now

Surely the company after doing the exercise said

"Hey, we bought 15 thingys with us and we've only got 14. Anyone know where it is?"

"No boss, but what's the worst that can happen?"

Hmm, pie.

England team is okay except for a few oddities in the midfield.

Plus, why didn't Schneiderlin get into the French team? Are they afraid of winning?

Well, Van Gaal was. :P

Hmm, pie.

May need to really go through that training a couple more times.

That moment when Wilshere and Delph get called up, but the same can't be said for Noble, Antonio and Cresswell.

well for a lot of countries there a lot of strange choices.. at England, France, Spain... at least Walcott didn't get the call so Hodgens did something right..

anyway when is van Gaal getting fired? right after the FA cup finale?
