Come on you Goonerz!!! Great win.

A week doesn't get better than beating both neighbors back to back. Lousy from Raya, but he picked himself up and played incredibly well after that. Whatever happens at the end of this season Arteta has set up a remarkable team with a great mentality.
Over to you Pep.

I am really impressed by Arsenal and this is a great win,they need to keep up winning all of their games and hoping that Manchester City makes a mistake,unfortunately this will be very difficult for them as they have a firepower team capable of winning against anyone,it will be only luck and God's decision if Arsenal manages to win the title this season,they have no one to blame except themselves for all their mistakes during this season which in the end as they say "experience is the sum of all errors" and Arsenal must have known this very well in these last seasons,they have got a lot of experience but not a trophy,I think it would have been better a trophy and less errors but that's just me.

That Pep felt stalked by Arteta.

Raya made a mistake that led to a goal but fortunately the mistake did not make the Gunners feel defeated despite a lot of pressure from Spurs at the end of the match.

This season Arteta is much more than last season to form his team to be great, the game is quite impressive that is displayed.

Ouhh I'm freefalling in this pool.

They're getting away at the moment. Forest have been the better side for me and created better chances, but when you switch off against this team like they did during that corner kick, you get punished. Still 45 minutes to go and then 4 extra matches to be played, I can just feel City will slip up in one of them, we just got to keep winning our side of the race.

What an intresting match between Chelsea and Tottenham. Chelsea finally looking good like in the old days and lately they have been playing really good. Big win for them 2-0 and sadly that Tottenham didnt score at least one in this match. But finally after a few weeks i am back at first place by just half a point,but it feels really good.

No doubt a good timely win for the Chelsea with this now they are in for the 6th spot and this could be interesting because all three teams are on same level of performance any team can go through for the 6th spot which could be created good fight.
For the pool I am having worst results in last few rounds so now out of the top 20 spots which is worst end for me but hopefully will try to have something better in coming season.

@Joca you are good, hopefully you will be able to stay here for the last few rounds as well, good luck.

Thanks,i have been trying really hard to keep my place in the top 2 and finally after a couple of weeks i needed to do something different to overtake Omikifuse and finally was able to. Was playing it safe last few weeks but now there is a complicated round and i think its gonna be hard to get points. Chelsea pushed me up pretty well so hopefully i get a few more good results in this upcoming round.

Great result for Arsenal, and great we extend the goal difference between us and City even further. If the do drop points it means there will be a match where they either don't gain any goal difference (a draw) or their goal difference drops (a loss). A draw is the best we can hope for at this time and if that happens there is almost no way they get a better GD than us in the other matches.

I was hoping Tottenham win against Chelsea, I need them to be strongly fighting for the UCL spot when they face City.

I wouldn't hold my breath, isn't Arsenal the arch nemesis of Tottenham? Even if they had it in their legs to win against City I am sort of expecting them to play it casually.

Nice start for me in the pool, 2 correct scores from first 2 games, time to start turning for the worse, I just know it

I'm gunning for Arsenal all the way here, now that my team found a way to bow out in unspectacular fashion. Gooners were objectively better all season long. More exciting (I'll pretend that 0-0 against City didn't happen, but that was the plan all along), more positive, and just well, not City.

Kane prevented plenty of St Totteringham days but yeah, it seems like Arsenal are back to toying with their big town rivals. What's your pick for the rest of the games? I should bet against it?

[un_rank]

Nah, this Tottenham will be doing Arsenal no favors and that will not be for want of trying cause they do not want their rivals to win the league but just that they're in too terrible a form and City and in too good a form. I'll hold out more hope for Fulham than the pair of Tottenham and WestHam.

Who saw the news some days back of clubs voting to put a cap on how much each club can spend in transfers and wages bases on their revenues, this is expected to take effect from 2025/26 season? I feel that will be one way to reduce the competitiveness of the league in Europe.

So how many lost games has Tottenham in a consecutive way as I cannot remember the last game that they have not lost as of lately,sure they had some pretty strong opponents one after another but going and losing all these games without even taking just a single point,I think in 4-5 games even a weak team could have gotten one point.This shows how unpredictable the Premier League is and the teams that are there can show us quite the opposite performance compared to what they did show in the first games of the season,we see how Tottenham is losing every game while we also see how Chelsea is winning every game and they are barely conceding goals while doing so.

Me neither. I got burned by them just too often to ever consider them again a while back. Bedshitters, and it's a shame because Ange was pretty decent I thought -- the curse of media fawning struck him (and Newcastle) this season.

Son cuts a frustrated figure, he's too good to remain down, but he really deserves better than this.

Liverpool weren't even that scary.

Now its a different story i guess since the first part of the season. Chelsea back then was really bad and was playing hot and cold and mostly losing the matches and now Tottenham that played well in the first part cant get a single point in the second part of the season. Pretty much some wierd stuff happening in the league. I think that Tottenham with this dosent have any hopes of reaching the champions league spot.

[swogerino]

I have made a side bet with someone so I want him to remember to me as I think I am losing this bet so I can start collecting some money to pay him when the Premier League season is over,most likely I will pay after June 5th when I hopefully will get a prize from the Champions League pool where it is a sure thing most likely I will get a good prize,I maybe pay him before depending on my budget but one sure thing is that on June 5th he will get his money or as soon as I will get the prize from the prediction pool.

As far as I remember it was aramall the username of the person who made a side bet with me this season or something along those lines,so that is why I want to bring this up again,so I know who I have to pay the money to  .I have to pay him 0.001 Bitcoin which is a much better value than when did the side bet.

Can this season end, please? I was 2nd 5 rounds ago, now I'm 5th and can't get a single thing right.
Next round is crucial with extra games added, I cannot be any worse than I've recently been I guess.

_____________________________

Finally a good LFC performance - shame that we couldn't push this title race to the end.
Palace and Everton - I still can't get over it. Those aren't the teams that should stop you in last Klopp's season.

I wanted the season to end for such a long time. Was chasing that first place the entire time and was 1st 2nd and 3rd the entire season and now im second again. I messed up on Luton and Everton match and lost some really big points that could have pushed me really up in the first place. Still two rounds to go and i think things will get intrested at the very top of the pool.

Too bad that Liverpool didnt win those last few matches to make the things intresting

Come on man, I am just hitting my stride. 3rd yellow cup in couple of weeks. This season must go for a bit longer for me to catch all of you guys.
Next week will be crucial one as you say.

They're a trash team and they don't frankly deserve to get into Europe. Aston Villa have had an amazing season so far with their limited budget and fully deserve that 4th spot.
Ange is a decent manager and they have some decent players but far off from a title challenging as they were posturing to be at the begining of the season.

I guess it's the Chelsea we knew before  ;Dbut now see Spurs as a team that has no motivation to win, they can only survive hoping to win with a relegation team ah this is not something challenging but like Spurs have a greater chance of qualifying for the Europa League.

Chelsea had another goal party, why at the end the Blues were so convincing. Try earlier maybe it will be something different.
