Chris Wood just scored his 20th Premier League goal of the season. That’s 88 Premier League goals for him now.

If West Ham win today it'll secure Graham Potter's legacy of being one of the best managers in the Premier league!

He's made out to be a good manager, yet he's done nothing at this level to suggest he is.

To underline his achiement Chris Wood just moved ahead two goals ahead of Denis Bergkamp in the EPL all time goal scorers chart and is level with Rashford. A couple more needed to pass Giroud and level with OGS.

Right. He's just a capable Premier League manager, nothing more nothing less. I suspect the bigger problem is you just don't like him very much.

2-2 Forest Leicester. A blow to their CL hopes if it stays level.

Buonanotte for Leicester on loan from Brighton looks a handy player since he's been on.

Leicester competed really, really well at Forest today.

If they'd have played like that all year it would have been a hell of a lot closer. Some strange goings on there this season.

That Forest owner has absolutely no business being on a football pitch.

May have needed over 40 points to get 17th place this season

Leicester fans feel he's been underutilised for them, his stats are pretty decent.

Ha.. don’t start this again, I couldn’t get my head round the maths last time.

Would 23 points get you 17th place, or do you need 39?

I know it’s all over at the bottom but 38 points unlikely to have kept Ipswich or Leicester up this season

Technically he's not the Forest owner. He removed himself from ownership recently to comply with the rules of not owning multiple clubs who are playing in Europe.

I think we can see how that translates to reality.

Both - 'get' and 'need' are two different things. 23 points would get Spurs 17th, but Ipswich need 39 to get 17th, remaining games notwithstanding.

Has he removed himself from ownership or just from running the club?

It's now owned by a blind trust. He's likely the beneficial owner which means he's entitled to the assets but absolutely shouldn't have any say in the running of it or any control.

Half watching the Wycombe v Charlton play off.

Rubbish game with the potential to go off, handbags late in the half. Wycombe CF Kone committed horrible foul, could have gone, yellow card. Charlton are trying to get their own back or get him sent off.

The foul was far worse than the Notts County one last night.

All to get round UEFA rules. Will be interesting to see what action anyone might take given he has no authority to be on the pitch.

Ange has got to go now. That team are so bad. Palace should have won by about 4 or 5. How he can’t see that Munoz is in acres for virtually the whole game and get nobody near him. He makes so many changes so how can his young lads get into any kind of rhythm. There was essentially 4 games of a season left today and he makes 8 changes. As bad as Man U are at least Amorim has only had 2/3 of a season compared to 2 full ones.

Its an odd one - finished 5th last year - above Chelsea / Newcastle / Man Utd
And they've conceded fewer goals this season

It's been a boring end with everything already settled. When everything wasn't confirmed the relegation spots & title it offered some excitement. The gaps have been too large to bring last day drama or even going back weeks but throughout nothing but boring.
