Tottenham were close to getting relegated and I'm sure they will not take any chances next season, Roberto de zerbi is going to make sure of that because it would be an opportunity for him to prove himself. It is quite unfortunate that city had a bad run this season which made pep's stay come to an end.

Tottenham performed very badly last season and were very close to the relegation zone. They were in 17th place in the points table. But they are not facing a terrible situation like this season. Despite performing so badly last season, they have not been able to improve their performance this season.

If Tottenham want to perform well next season, they will have to make big changes in their squad. Tottenham's defense was atrocious this season. They conceded 57 goals. They need to improve their defense. If they don't do that, we will not see Tottenham in the top 10 of the table next season.

Last season, Tottenham escaped relegation by finishing in the 17th position and this season that just ended they also finished 17th position but if their performance keeps deteriorating next season they might actually get relegated which will be a very bad experience for them and their fans. If they had lost to Everton yesterday while Westham won their match it would have been another story for them but let's just say they are lucky for a second time. Tottenham started falling apart after the exit of Harry Kane and I understood their predicament because they have been unable to replace a striker who matches the energy and scoring prowess of Harry Kane so I don't really think they have a defensive problem alone, their attacking positions also lacks control and quality to achieve a good results because if they had good strikers, the lapses of the defense wouldn't have been noticeable.

They should be grateful for De Zerbi for accepting the offer to coach them when things got very rough, not every coach would accept to take such offer knowing that the team was a risk of being relegated but he accepted and even promised to stick with them eveb though they end up relegated.
 They tried to protect the goal the scored by stopping Everton from equalising or having a comeback else their hopes of remaining in the Premier League would've been in doubt. It's true that the attacking strength of Tottenham has not been same since Harry Kane left not only him, Son too and it's tough to find perfect replacement for those players especially Kane but I know that De Zerbi would recruit players that would help the team improve in the coming season.

Tottenham Hotspur really escaped this time and were very lucky. Westham had tough games that they couldn't win lately, and that saw them perfectly relagated. But Tottenham needs to buckle up. They aren't really doing well at all. This time, I mean last season and this one that just ended recently, it has been worse performances all day long. In seasons past, even though Tottenham maay not be at the top of the table or very close, but they were still regarded as a big team in England. When you have a game with them, you know you are playing with a big tea. Sometimes, they will stay at the top of the table, and then later they will drop. But this time is just too bad for them. The management of the club needs to do something's. What could be there problem? Coach or players or the board??

Lucky Tottenham escaping relegation, that would have made Arsenal fans very happy, winning the league, and then watching a top rival side go into relegation, after what happened in the journey for the title race.

Two seasons ago, Tottenham finished top 5, they never imagined where they have to fight to avoid relegation, same with Chelsea winning the Club World Cup, playing in the Champions League, and then finishing in a position where they won't be participating in any other competition, not even the Conference League.

I would never advise him to take a break; competition in the Premier League is fierce, and it’s quite possible that a team might go a whole year without winning – there are simply too many strong sides.
Perhaps it would be better for him to have a change of scenery and try something new, to prove to everyone that he’s still a winning manager; I could well see him coaching in Italy alongside Pep Guardiola.

He spends 9 years here at the fierce and challenging Premier League. Here, things have never been easy for anyone. Just because of this, he is feeling tired now. How things will go for him is going to be interesting because his statements show he needs rest, but outside the Premier League any job is surely going to be not challenging for him he can enjoy better.

Many new jobs could be available for him easily, but if he likes to have a rest like Jurgen Klopp and then have any job, this could always be better because just getting out of a stressful job surely needs some rest, and then having a new job will bring good things in his coming job. Currently, the Italian League surely needs a coach like him.

The way Arsenal held their own and kept their people motivated was really interesting and a testament to Arsenal's hard work. Tottenham are lucky enough not to have been in this predicament but they need to work hard to avoid this every day. It was a matter of time now and their hard work and success was what they achieved by playing badly. Chelsea played badly this time and it didn't impress me as I thought they could do it but they didn't pull themselves up by any means. Arsenal have done a very brave job for their people and will continue to do so and it is a challenge for everyone whether anyone can bring Arsenal down from the title or not.

I’m just thinking guys with what I’ve seen online and in my city. The way Arsenal fans have been celebrating the premier league win, it’s been party after party everywhere even some celebrities in my country are following the trend and hosting shows to celebrate the win.

I’m just wondering what will happen if Arsenal eventually wins the champions league, the noise is going to be mad. I used to think Chelsea fans are the only noise makers 😄😂 but now I’ve seen what one major trophy can do to Arsenal fans.

Those in North London how’s it over there?

[Felicity_Tide]

I am curious about Guardiola's replacement, his football philosophy is very beautiful and entertaining to watch. If Man City loses that, it might be a bit boring. But I believe Man City may adjust to the conditions of the team's coach.

Well, every good thing has to come to an end at some point. Pep is literally one of a kind, and finding a manager who can replicate his exact works at City or any other Club, is quite tough. We might get entertaining football from the next manager, but the results becomes a big question. Or we might also get the results, but with low entertainments. I just don't think we can get the exact pep that has managed so many big clubs.

Let's not forget that Liverpool has never been the same since the departure of Klopp. Same thing with Chelsea after losing Maresca. Money sometimes is never enough to get a top coach because there are only a very few.

What did you expect after been trophyless for 22 years? They really deserved this celebrations, people cannot understand their pains if they don't celebrate like this, but I just hate the unnecessary omparisons they are doing all over the social media comparing their players with legends players like Messi and Ronaldo, I think that's too much.

I know Arsenal is capable of winning the Champions League title because they have strong team as Paris Saint Germain, but honestly, I don't wish it for them, they were win premier league and everywhere is already flooded with noise by their fans, what if they also win champions league?

I could easily see him managing Inter if he decided to come and have a go in Serie A.
He had some kind words to say about Inter when they were managed by Simone Inzaghi, and he himself said that Inter were a very dangerous side.
That said, I fully understand that after nine long and intense years in the Premier League, he might want a break, but if you stop, you’re likely to fade into obscurity, so it’s better not to take that risk.

I can’t even blame them honestly. They’ve dreamed of winning it their whole lives and after coming close so many times without actually winning it you can’t expect them not to celebrate like this now that they've won it finally. If anything they still haven’t done enough yet.

It’s been a long time since they won the league so this kind of joy is completely normal. At least now they’re finally free from all the banter from rival fans about not winning trophies and if they’re celebrating this much over just a league title i can only imagine what will happen if they eventually win the Champions League. I just know rival fans will definitely have a rough time.

[FanEagle]

Congratulations to Tottenham on their hard work, which has paid off as hoped. If Tottenham manages to avoid relegation this season, the same thing must not happen again next season. They need to identify the weaknesses that need to be addressed.
I think all Spurs fans who were at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will remember how it all unfolded, because that goal is what kept Tottenham from playing in the Championship.

West Ham United were forced to play in the Championship, and I believe they’ll only spend one season there.
What I’m really looking forward to with the current West Ham United squad is seeing which players leave and which ones choose to stay.
Bowen. This is the player I’ll be keeping an eye on.

I am not %100 sure that West Ham will come back next season right away. Championship teams are pretty good and have deep pockets as well so it is not like they are going to play against weaker poorer teams all the time, yeah the bottom ones are like that but the ones who are trying to be champions are quite rich as well, some even have rich owners.

So I would say that it makes sense for this to be a bit longer than just one season. It could still be one season too we have no idea, like they could get back very quickly too if possible but it may not happen too. One big reason for why teams do not "usually" come back right away is because they end up losing bunch of players and need to build it back up again which is why it takes longer than just one summer to do that.

Not just that they're free from all the banters, they're also free from critics from the fans and they're also free from bottling the league. I know that a lot of people was expecting that Manchester City will still overtake Arsenal and win the league but Arsenal put them to shame.

It's good to keep on trying on achieving your dreams no matter how many times you have tried and fail because anyone that stops trying has already surrendered to failure. Arsenal proved that they're better than Manchester City this time.

Nobody knows how west ham are going to perform there, we should wait for next season to start, let’s see how they going to perform before we will conclude if they going to return to premier league. If they can work on their performance, then we going to see them in premier league soon, but if their is no improvement in their performance, then they will be staying longer their till when their performance improves. West ham had the opportunity to avoid relegation, but they didn’t play well in those matches, and they have been relegated now, they going to start fighting to come back to premier league again, they will have to rebuild the team.

Chelsea failed to win their final league match and squandered their chance. Had they beaten Sunderland, they would have at least secured a spot in European competition, but they couldn’t even manage that. With this loss, Chelsea has truly had a terrible season. Despite trailing 1-0 at halftime, they fell behind 2-0 early in the second half. Although they scored a goal to cut the deficit to 1-2 just six minutes after falling behind 2-0, receiving a red card and being reduced to 10 men made it extremely difficult for them to secure any points from the match.

If it is chelsea's performance this season i dont know what to say because the chelsea of before I know is no longer the chelsea I see in this present times. On that game, Sunderland gave them all the opportunities needed to transform there useful effort in to goal but because of the inconsistent performance of chelsea team that was why they went home with such result filled with regret that even shattered there hope of playing European football next season.

Not expecting Chelsea lose to Sunderland, my attention turned to Sunderland who returned to the Premier League this season & immediately made an achievement. They did what Como did, European competition without Chelsea & Tottenham Hotspur is really surprising, isn't it?

Chelsea must learn from what they experienced this season, many surprises occurred in the Premier League, starting from Arsenal who won the league, Chelsea who will not play in European competitions next season & Tottenham Hotspur who almost got relegated.

Arsenal is definitely a big club and you don't expect the celebration to be quiet after waiting for 22 years to win this trophy a s all the banter the fans have faced from rival fans, I think they really need to celebrate it in a big way. I have even heard English pundits saying that they have seen teams win the trophy over the years, but they have not seen a celebration like that of Arsenal,  which shows how massive a club they are in the footballing world. I am really happy for Arsenal and they truly deserve the trophy and I support them to celebrate it more.
Talking about the champions League,  if Arsenal eventually wins it on Saturday then we should expect a more wild celebration than what we are seeing right now.

[Volgastallion]

West Ham suffer another relegation and if im not mistaken this is the third one they suffer in this century which it could be considered as a really bad pace, if we thing they are one of the medium to big clubs of the Premier League you cant lose the category 3 times in 25 years is a lot, plus i was seeing their average position and is quite bad also, when they are not in relegation most of the time they sit between 16 to 10.

What do you mean celebrating their trophy an tittle win is noise?! They have every right to celebrate the way they like,there's nothing noisy about how they chose to celebrate, for goodness sake, they're champions of the Premier League Competition.

They should win the Champions League in my opinion come Saturday, it will be glad to finally see them lifting the Champions League trophy for the very first time same way other Premier League side has done that. Godspeed to them come Saturdays game.

Chelsea's performance this season was terrible, even with their lineup they still lost to Sunderland and I actually thought that they had a high chance of winning but it is quite disappointing that they didn't and they even ended up having a red card. After scoring their first goal o knew that it would not be possible for them to equalize because of the way they were performing, I hope they improve next season.
