How about us, he knows how to score and the finishing I saw was very good. Sir Les was 29 when he joined us and 37 when he left so age is not a deal breaker. Of course his value will rise now especially if he keeps scoring in the final. Put it another way, I didn't see anything to put us off.
He appears to be out of contract in the summer, so I'm sure he'll have options.
 
Ended up being a step too far for Villa this evening.

They've had a brilliant season overall though and Ebening deserves credit for turning it around so quickly.

I have a very funny feeling they will lose to both Liverpool and Palace and we will have to beat City to get top 4, handing Arsenal the title in the process.

The way I see it, the new WHL WUM on Pep can only be activated now if :

- Spurs beat Burnley
- Man Utd do not lose to them lot
- the Poool beat Villa


Which is a lot of ifs (especially #2)
 
So (barring a miracle), the three promoted teams are going straight back down - without much of a fight

I think many people said that those who came up this season were amongst the worst we’ve seen in yonks and would likely go back down. None of them showed any real ambition with signings, Sheffield even sold their two best players, one to bloody Burnley! Zero sympathy for clubs that just seemingly come up for that money grab and then get battered. The fact two other clubs have suffered points deductions this season and those three have still gone down really does make them one of, if not the worst trio to come up and go straight back down.

Honestly disappointed by Burnley, as I thought they'd at least go down fighting but instead basically stayed up so long due to all the points deductions ahead of them

Sheffield United can still get to ****, though

Burnley’s Championship winning team was better. They made wholesale changes, buying a lot of unproven players and changed their style after promotion. It was a mistake.
 
I hear "people" are very upset that some Spurs fans are hoping Man U get the lead out and bury Arsenal and City win the PL. Shame on them. Anybody would think Spurs fans still hold a grudge for kicking Spurs out of Div 1 and giving their spot to Arsenal (thanks to a Liverpool chairman maybe getting a backhander!?) Ok.Spurs finished last but they extended the first division and Arsenal had finished what? 6th? Long time ago but the stink still hovers over the Arsenal stadium............

Someone on the Arsenal board went to prison for that. Forget the details now.

If the Poool can not turn up tomorrow, that would make me sleep (a bit) better.
