Arsenal did the double over Chelsea this season - home and away
Quite amazing given they are the in form side and Champions League finalists
Smith-Rowe and Saka are the players Arsenal need to build around
Chelsea vs Arsenal (0-1) | Premier League - 12 May 2021

Possibly a hangover from beating City.

Nice finish for Brighton at their last home game. City down to ten men so early on gave them the upper hand. I thought Foden had sealed it with his wonder goal but Trossard went one better and eventually the extra man and the fans (remember them) turned it around. A dead rubber really but will still go down as one of the best games of the season.

Looks like Nuno Santo's odds on for the Everton job.Was hoping Ancelotti would stick around for a bit longer. Knew he'd go back to one of the big guns eventually but thought he'd give it another season.

The merry go round is revolving again
Toffees should get Moyes back but as its now a step down from Hammers he probably can't be tempted

Yeah, was studying the fixtures yesterday
Just hope we can have full grounds again
Another season of empty or even partially full grounds would be really disappointing

If you haven't been contacted by Daniel Levy about the Spurs job yet please don't worry. New slots are opening up all the time

Kieran Tierney has signed a new long term deal with Arsenal
Tierney - I love it here, it's an absolute joy
"The way the club is run from the inside is amazing. I love everyone. I love all of the staff, I love all of the players, I love the manager and just working with them is an absolute joy. Being happy in life speaks for a lot and I am happy, so I was more than happy to commit my future to the club."

Good bit of business by the Gunners
Tierney is a great player
"Absolute joy" is a ringing endorsement of Arteta

I’m pretty happy to have Benitez,there are a lot worse managers around.He’s got some balls to come to us though.If he doesn’t start well the pressure will be horrendous
