In the Belgian press there's rumours about Tielemans leaving if Leicester fails to qualify for the CL.

Nuno leaving Wolves and apparently a real chance he's going to Spuds.

Leaving at the end of the season. Not going to Spurs. Fonseca or Lago are the favourites for Wolves.

Bissouma to Arsenal. That'll be a very nice pickup Brecht. Exactly the sort of DM you need. Now a couple of AMs.

I would be very happy with that pickup!

Aouar is again on the radar apparently and there are going to be talks with Real about Odegaard.
I would prefer Odegaard, but he'll be more expensive probably.

So the final day of the season is here.

Can Leicester crack the big 4 or are they the 5th best club in the league?

Here's what I think.

Leicester v Spurs 60%W 30%D 10%L
Chelsea v Villa 50%W 30%D 20%L
Liverpool v Palace 87.5%W 10%D 2.5%L (Probably generous to Palace)

Therefore I think we have a maximum 30% chance of finishing above Chelsea and about a 7% chance of finishing above Liverpool. Best wishes to Stormi and the Liverpool guys even though I hope you get battered today :-)

Finish above Spuds, but not qualify for the Conference League.
That's the ideal situation I think.

They better go out with a bang in front of fans.

Fofana off injured in tears. Midfielder into CB. Evans already out.

Half time 1-1 Was pretty sure we'd win before the game but with Fofana going down and little Mendy replacing him whilst N'Didi goes into the CB position that looks unlikely now. We've lost the best DM and lost height towards our weakness of set pieces. It was bad news to not have Jonny Evans fit but now with Fofana out it's going to be all hands to the pump against a very good attack. Got to hope that our attack brings it on and outscores the Spurs.

I see Chelsea have gone 1 down. Will tuchel have to earn his money now or will Injuries decide the CL places?

Wow, wasn't expecting this but if current scores hold, Arsenal will finish in 7th and play in the Conference League. Go figure.

Thank the ref for not giving handball against Kane for the 3rd goal too.

How does it feel for a "chelsea" fan to have to count on Spurs in order to finish higher than Leicester?

I'm proud of my team again this season. We have had a fantastic season.

If Chelsea lose to Man City then they will have had a failure of a season.

See you all next season.

Good way to end a poor season, qualifying for the ill-fated conference league but still finishing above Arsenal. Sad that this is probably the last time we'll see Harry in a Spurs shirt. I feel very emotional.

Comiserations to Leicester for missing out on the CL, but like HIF said, it's still been a good season with the cup.
