I know it’s Palace (spit) but Eze potentially out for 8 months after a serious injury in training is horrible. What an incredible talent. Impressive every time I’ve seen him. That’s a huge loss to them.

I'm sorry for the player, but hope Palace struggle without him...
So all the Anti Levy/ENIC banners were out of sight of the cameras.
Apparently the end of season lap of 'honour' was abandonned and the stewards were pushing people towardss the exits. Shameful. Proper toxic atmosphere 2nd half apparently. '£60...you're having a laugh', etc etc.
Most home teams benefited from the return of fans this week. In this case the hostile atmosphere would have helped Villa, maybe Leicester should offer to swap grounds for the game on Sunday!
Quite remarkable how in a season where Spurs were top in December and Arsenal have been absolutely awful and slumming it in mid-table for months, that we could end up with Arsenal finishing above them.
Leicester v Spurs Man city v Everton Arsenal v Brighton
A win for Arsenal and Spurs/Everton both failing to win will see Arsenal finish 7th and qualify for the new Europa conference league. Personally though looking at the other clubs who are in it, if i was a fan of any of those clubs i think i'd rather not qualify.
Chelsea will do well to beat Villa especially with the Champions League final upcoming. You have to assume Liverpool will beat Palace so i like Leicester to get back 4th place by beating Spurs.
looks as though Leicester will miss out on the Euro League .. might be fairer if the Cup winners had a place in the four rather than the fourth placed club, although that is probably against UEFA rules

I wonder if the Champions League places are up to the individual FA's
Seem to remember Peter Varney being an advocate for the FA Cup winners getting into the Champions League but didnt get enough interest - Even a Play-Off between FA Cup winner and 4th would make things interesting

I've always wanted the 4th place to go to the FA Cup winners as well, as teams should be rewarded more for winning things, not for being the 4th best team in the league

True but you could argue that in doing it by league placings you're rewarding a team for consistency over a 38 game season rather than one who might just get a favourable draw for 2-3 games.

That element of luck makes it more interesting. Indeed that's a major difference between the FA Cup and over competitions, the complete lack of seeding, other than when you enter the competition.
And smaller teams often end up sneaking into the semis and final because so many teams don't take it seriously. So many PL teams are just preoccupied with PL survival

Only 3 PL clubs will end the season having lost more games than they didn’t lose (win or draw) and that’s the 3 teams that are relegated. Not losing has probably never been so important since the points for a win was increased from 2 to 3

That’s a huge loss to them.
First time in a year that Spurs fans are allowed back into their stadium & they boo off the players at full time....😂😂😂
Quite possibly the most rank home performance we've wtinessed in years.
How about swapping places with us for a season......I'm sure you'll enjoy it a lot better....!!
