Don't think they'll qualify for the CL anyway,Pool and City are a given for top 2 in any order,Leicester,Chelsea and Arsenal will be strong.

Assuming Spurs lose today they're already playing catch-up on the top 4/5,and their form since January doesn't suggest to me they're capable of stringing a decent number of wins together.

No guarantee anyway. 3 or 4 players who have all mentally checked out is too many.

I was thinking the league could be a lot closer this year, but looks like we may get the top 6 pulling away again. Only difference being Leicester in there instead of Man United.

Could do with Man United beating Norwich. But it's Man United, who would struggle to beat a drum.

Interestingly, when Leicester won the title in 2016, both Liverpool and Chelsea finished outside of the top six with Southampton and West Ham filling those two places.

2-0 United Rashford moments after missing a dodgy VAR pen.

2-1 Palace with a dodgy VAR pen,after Zaha intially booked for diving.

Another dodgy VAR pen for United given for handball despite hitting the defender's back.

Justice served as Krul saved again.

You'd think Manure would had solved their spot-kick woes by now,they get enough practice surely.

Arsenal thought they'd scored a late winner but ruled out by a dodgy VAR call.
