Since joining Arsenal has Welbeck done anything except scoring against United?

Poor performance, very lethargic. Tuanzebe was our best player which was quite worrying. Jones and Smalling should leave in the summer. Rooney as well obviously, and we need to replace Carrick.

I can understand why you'd want those players out, but has Smalling really been that bad? Only ask because I haven't really watched Man Utd this year and he was one of the best in the league last season.

Mourinho has now never won at the Emirates in the League and his team's have only scored 1 goal at the ground. His side now has also not won away against the top 6, and has failed to score a single goal in them matches

Worrying for United fans

Yeah that will most likely change on Sunday. Hope we murder them though, don't think I could stand the sight of that smug little wanker leaving the last ever game at WHL with a win.

You know you played like shit when you can't even score against West Ham, it was almost like they used all their motivation in the Arsenal game. CL football is pretty much there due to our goal difference over Man Utd and one more point will get us 2nd. I honestly didn't expect us to be up there again this season so i'll take 2nd and hope Liverpool and Man City can hang on to 3rd and 4th.

Just seen the new Dirt 4 trailer, looks very good indeed, hope its not as stupidly hard as Dirt Rally proved to be. By the looks of things they've gone back to their routes of the likes of dirt 2 which I thought was a thoroughly enjoyable game.

https://youtu.be/-wtIjcKwdr8

Dirt 2 & 3 were both the best for me. As for Dirt Rally I didn't find the actual rally stages that hard but the rallycross events were ridiculous at times, it felt like the AI cars were on rails. Also I hope they keep the hillclimb mode and add more tracks for it, would be amazing if they could somehow get the Goodwood hillclimb course in there!

Some Arsenal fans are hilarious, apparently that result means nothing because we won't win the league and finishing top 4 is nothing special.

Get fucked.

I'm going for either 1-1 or 2-2 but it would just be typical Spurs to let Arsenal win the last ever derby at WHL. Going to be shit playing at Wembley, but at least that means the new stadium should be ready on time.

Winning successively at Fiorentina and Milan (Juve for example lost both of these fixtures!) is some going for Empoli, considering before these two games they could barely score a goal.

The Milan clubs, though......you think they might be getting a bit better and then they have results like they both have this weekend (and recent games too) to remind you how poor they really are. Would like to see Milan become a great team again, not too bothered about Inter haha.

Imagine how the Crotone players feel, they win at Samp and probably head off the pitch thinking they've closed the gap to Empoli only to see that they actually won at Milan.

Believe it or not I actually used to like Inter when I was a kid, mainly just because of their kit and the fact they had some of my all time favourite players in their squad. Not too bothered now, as long as Napoli stay up there I'm not that worried who finishes where. If I had to pick one of the other clubs to stay up there it would probably be Roma to be honest.

It's almost like Empoli and Crotone have just realised that getting relegated would be a bad idea.

An attacker playing left back, what a surprise that has gone wrong. Also if we could stop gifting them goals that would be great.

PFA Team of The Year.

De Gea
Walker - Luiz - Cahill - Rose
Hazard - Kante - Alli - Mane
Kane - Lukaku


Would've had Courtois over De Gea, Sanchez over Mane and Alderweireld over either Luiz or Cahill. Really don't get how De Gea is in there though, Courtois, Heaton and Lloris all been better this season.

I just have a feeling we are going to screw this up.

Costa is just back to his shitty behaviour, which is really annoying becasue he played very well in the first half of the season and now he is only concerned about being a cunt. Would rather see Willian or Michy in the squad ahead of him right now.

Doubt it, even if you don't win all your games there is no way we're winning all of ours. 3 London derbies, Man Utd, Leicester away and Hull away on the final day whereas Chelsea have a piss easy last 4 games against shit like Sunderland and Middlesbrough. Probably be the biggest bottle job in PL history if Chelsea did throw it away though, we were something like 13 points behind them at one point.

Just me or does Bellerin look like a dodgy samurai with that hair? You know you're playing like shit when fans of teams managed by Pulis and Allardyce are giving it the Olé because it's so easy.

Dele Alli is now the 5th top scorer in the league level with Ibrahimovic. Son scoring today also means we have 3 players in double figures just in the league and Eriksen could join them if he scores 3 more. Not bad for a team that apparently relies so much on Kane to do everything.

That's crazy. Empoli meanwhile have only scored 17 goals all season in Serie A yet will almost certainly stay up.

What did you make of the two Napoli v Juve games this week? I watched the one on Sunday and Napoli were really impressive. They might not have created many clear chances but it's extremely hard to do that against a defensive Juve. Then I know they got knocked out last night but it was another positive result.

I'm not so sure about Empoli to be honest. They've only got 1 point in the last 9 games and if they keep that up and Crotone can get another win from somewhere then the gap will be down to 2 points.

For the first game I felt the chances were there to beat them, maybe not clear cut chances but still chances which is about as good as it gets against Juve these days. I think Mertens hit the post and had a shot straight at Buffon from inside the box and on another day Hamsik probably puts one of those sliced shots from the edge of the box in the bottom corner. Obviously he made up for it with the goal but in the end a draw only really suited Juve. Overall a decent performance but just didn't have enough to win.

I didn't watch the second game I only saw a few highlights but it's nice to know we can still beat Juve, even if Neto played a large part in that and that they still went through. Just the league to focus on now and hopefully 2nd place

So Jesse Lingard is apparently getting £100k per week now, that's definitely not crazy at all. Looks like those 5 star dabbing skills have really worked out for him and Pogba.

Classic Gennaro Gattuso in Serie B this season. He's manager of Pisa who could get relegated despite having the best defence in the entire league.

I see lumping it in the box over and over again still works. Lukaku acting like a little bitch was hilarious, maybe he should focus on learning how to control and pass a ball before moaning at others.

Nice one Palace, it'll make no difference to the title race but it's always great to see that lot lose. Also please can West Ham get dragged right into the relegation fight and fuck off to the Championship. Seeing a half empty Olympic Stadium in the second division would be hilarious.

I haven't seen it but I was thinking recently if I should go back and see what the game is like after the patches. But now I don't think I'll bother.

It's such a shame as the game had huge potential. But yeah, Ubisoft, I shouldn't have been surprised.

Obviously I don't know what it was like when you last played, but they have added some stuff recently. New incursion, bigger dark zone, better exotic/named weapons and a new legendary difficulty which gives you an exotic weapon and a shit load more rewards compared to the other difficulties. It's still playable with things to do, i'm just pissed off with the way they are letting a game with such a huge potential die out and aren't really giving us anything to look forward to in year 2.

Anyone see the pathetic The Division stream they did a few days ago where they talked about year 2 of the game? Fucking unreal, they should've just stood there pointing their middle fingers up at the camera while shouting "FUCK YOU". Basically confirmed the game is dying and aren't going to do anything about it. All they are going to do is add pointless shit that nobody cares about and a create a class system that should've been in the game at launch. Oh and microtransactions as well which confirms they are desperate to rinse as much money as possible from the game before they abandon it. Can't believe I spent £70 on the game and season pass (which gave us nothing useful).

I just don't see any reason for him to want to leave Tottenham and go anywhere else in England. Tottenham are a better side than Man Utd at the moment with a very good up and coming squad who should only get better. He always seems very happy there and certainly doesn't come across as the kind of player that would move on at the first opportunity either. Plus other than funding for the new stadium i see absolutely no reason why they would have to sell him, clubs in the Premier League nowadays don't have to sell their best players (thanks to the massive tv money) especially to a rival in the same league.

Its logical from Man Utd's point of view but certainly not from Tottenham's or Harry Kane's.

Isn't the potential to win multiple trophies at the most popular club in the world a reason? We're most likely not going to win anything anytime soon so if Man Utd had a bid accepted for him I don't see why he'd turn it down, unfortunately for us.


Add to that that this is arguably the strongest period Spurs have ever gone through as a club, against one of the weakest we have for over 20 years, and the fact that even despite their new stadium their capacity is lower than Old Trafford, and they pay their players a relative pittance compared to the other top clubs (which won't change over the coming few years due to the construction of said stadium), nor can they afford to compete for players at the top end of the market, it would hardly be unbelievable to think there might be attractions to moving across.

What exactly are you basing that on? This is our strongest period in the PL era sure, but I don't see how this is our strongest period ever.

I'm pleased Gabbiadini seems to have settled quickly. I always liked him at Napoli, it just didn't ever look like it was going to work out for him no matter what he did. Still has so much potential and if he can stay confident and in the team then Southapton will have one hell of a bargain buy there.
