You know what else is great? Koscielny is suspended for the FA Cup final!

 

[Modric THFC]

Their 2nd best points total for 9 seasons and they can't even get top 4.

Surely that shows how competitive the top 6 clubs have been this season and underlines how good we have been.

 

[Bullet]

Indeed Rob. There is such a gulf between the top teams and the rest.

 

[Nifel]

I just noticed.

Which points lost were the final points that sent Arsenal out of a top four finish?

Answer: The points Arsenal dropped at White Hart Lane.

Arsenal won all 5 last matches in their traditional end of season dash to top four.

It does, but it also shows how brick the rest of the teams are. The Prem lge is not as strong overall has it once was.

 

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

Heard Le Prof say if he can keep this group of players for next season they can win the league.

I wonder if some of the top players are now looking for an easier gig like China, France and Spain?

Oh and Scotland!

 

[7percent]

Didn't he say something like 'this group of player needs to be kept together.." rather than "I need to keep this group together?'

The way he spoke made me think he's going (or thinks he is)

i am still good enough to play in Scotland.

Not for Celtic, they're PL material according to Brenda

Good point Nigel Nifel. If only the Goons had got a 'good point' at the Lane! Arf arf

They might've stood a chance if they'd finished 9th, the Europa is going to screw them

Green is not my colour anyway.

Had two different arsenal fans tell me today that they will show spurs what the Europa league is all about by winning it and doing better then us in the league. Really hope I am still around them this time next year.

Amazingly they both backed Wenger and were disgusted when I told them that if they had sacked him last summer and got Conte they would have won the league this season.

 

[Gilzeantoscore]

Actually I think they are a pretty good bet to win the Europa league.

Please GHod let Big Fat Sam have resigned from Palace to take over from Wenger.

More likely Allegri.........

 

[Kandi1977]

Allegri at Palace would be fun

 

[StephenH]

Allegri will only leave Juve for a big club.
Arsenal is just about big enough IMHO
