GWT: PL Matchweek 38: Season Finale, Finally

[bleedblue1223]

What a season, a true roller-coaster, but got what we needed in the end.

 

[Evilo]

Good job !

 

[Chimaera]

Who talked about Lingard again?

haha, I had a big parlay based on every match going over 1.5 goals. At the death!

 

[kingsboy11]

Bruno was worth every penny. Turned the entire season around.

 

[hatterson]

So with everything settled.

Spurs take 6th place and a Europa league spot.

Wolves are in 7th. If Chelsea win the FA cup, Wolves get Europa league as well, if Arsenal win it, Arsenal takes the Europa spot.

Wolves can also still theoretically get CL football if they win the EL this year.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Remember that goal Villa didn't concede against Sheffield United? Yeah, that's the only reason they stay up.

Bournemouth fully relegated by goal line f***up. Absolutely brutal

 

[Chimaera]

As much as I rather Bournemouth than some of the teams that stayed up, they've been dodging bullets in going down for a couple of seasons now.

 

[ItsFineImFine]

Nice to see Villa stay up. No disrespect to Bournemouth but they're never going to be a mid-table to team fighting relegation at best. A team like Villa over time can build a squad that can compete for a Europa spot and possibly beat one of the bigger teams on their day.

 

[hatterson]

Watford firing their manager for the last two games looks brilliant right now....

 

[Halladay]

This was such a long and crazy season. It nearly started a year ago and there are matches that happened that I keep on remembering was from this season. Quick turnaround now.

 

[Jussi]

Now United can play the B-squad at EL.

 

[Blender]

True.
Not many saw Spurs and Arsenal being this bad though (especially Spurs).

Who other than Arsenal fans had Arsenal in a top 4 spot?

 

[Rob]

Aubameyang scores. Luiz concedes a penalty. Typical Arsenal match.

 

[koyvoo]

Top 4 next year will finish same as they finished this year with possible flipping being 1 and 2 and possible flipping between 3 and 4.

 

[Chimaera]

Looking at the table, it's crazy what clubs like Everton, West Ham and Villa have spent to get where they got.

 

[Chimaera]

I like Pepe Reina, so I'm ok with them staying.

 

[Jussi]

That (Slab)head is massive.

 

[Blender]

Looking at the table, it's crazy what clubs like Everton, West Ham and Villa have spent to get where they got.

So much money in the Premier League you can spend big on players but still be poorly run so you just tread water.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Feels harsh to have Schmeichel talk bout how successful OGS has been when United's success has been his son's loss

 

[Jussi]

United were unbeaten in the PL since Bruno's arrival.

 

[Jussi]

Feels harsh to have Schmeichel talk bout how successful OGS has been when United's success has been his son's loss

He's still a United man. It's been evident in recent interviews/appearances.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Dean Smith is a quality interview, funny guy.

 

[Savant]

I like Pepe Reina, so I'm ok with them staying.

I like Villa. They have a cool stadium and one of my friends is a fan.
I usually base who I want to stay up on who has the better stadium.

 

[koyvoo]

To me, teams like Villa, Wolves, Leeds look great in the top flight.

 

[Chimaera]

It should be interesting to see what they do this offseason. Their owners have suggested they'll back the club more. But I have to think the bids for Grealish might be too much to say no to at this point.
