Yes, and no. Amazingly, through some weird divine intervention, West Ham top the Fair Play league.

Lovren is so, so, so soooo bad. I can't believe we actually used to rate him??? Maybe the formidable 3 of Fonte, Wanyama and Morgan made him look like a world beater, when he was only ever an average player. He'd struggle to get another big club in his career now. No composure, no ability on the ball, no leadership, no positional sense, no pace...so basically, he has nothing. £20m thank you very, very much.

Somehow Newcastle have equalized.

So is Rogers still an incredible tactician? He is a clown who will hopefully be shown the door soon, cannot stand the bloke. The way he's used Lambert this season is nothing short of a disgrace. We just need to make sure we finish 5th or 6th, sod sitting through the final supporting Arsenal.

Well Spurs have won that one then, just a case of by how many now.

Not sure you can include the likes of TDD in that, as he just had his account closed and setup a new one. He didn't post on the other one at the same time. Dubai? Nah. But there are a few clear multiples on here, and you just have to ask yourself....how do they have time? There's a world out there, sun, air....women.....but no, let's stay in with 3 different login's and WUM my way through the day. Sometimes it can be a funny, but most of the time it's damn annoying and ruins any decent debates.

Swansea have grown, you cannot deny that. Bar this season, Everton have been a top 6 club most years - still very well placed and able to spunk £28m on a player. Wigan are a bit of a non-example really, they got into Europe through a cup final but they were **** - and that's why they fell away anyway If you look at Fulham from the moment they qualified for Europe, they pushed on the next season and if I remember right - didn't they lose in the final of it? They had one of their most successful years on the back of getting into Europe. It's not a jolly. Like a lot of fans, I'm not going to afford to going to every away game - but surly, you'd take pride in seeing us against the likes of Fiorentina, Sevila, Valencia, maybe Milan, Bayer etc. I would. Or, we could hope that we finish 8th so we don't have Europe to distract us next year, so we can...umm, avoid Europe again. Genius. The CL expectiations are a little scewed in some fans eyes, even though we had somewhat of a chance early on...the squads were always going to Evan themselves out. Top 6 and Europa league is a MASSIVE achievement for our club, huge. With continued good management on and off the pitch it raises our profile all over the world.

But what about Ings and Pelle? How are they going to work together FFS? He's not even suited to our play! Koeman out!

They focus on the games worth focusing on for the general masses, and spend time on that as to appeal to a general audience. As Saints fans, of course we want to see our game discussed in detail - but who else generally gives a damn? It wasn't a great game really and wasn't worthy of much of a debate.

Aren't Silva or Cazorla too small for the PL, going by that logic? Leon Britton also had a massive few years in this league with Swansea in CM. Being ''too small'' is made too much of. There are plenty of ''small'' players who have been/are top players at this level.

If we create as many clear chances as we do now for Pelle (i.e 1 every 2000000 minutes), then I doubt it.

I cannot understand how anyone can be torn on this? And how is it just a nice holiday for the fans? This is an opportunity to progress the club, have some growth, attract some better players and improve the level of football we play at. I don't know why anyone would give that up just to see 3 players, who were once here, fail at their current club. Who cares now? They've had **** seasons, it's fun watching them suffer (2 in particular), but not at the expense of us jacking in an opportunity - and that's what this is. Anyway, it's kind of irrelevant now as Arsenal are in the final.

13 goals, or 8 assists. I'd take that. Poor 2nd halves from both of them, but enough of an impact in the first half of the season to shape our season.

But as we know from experience, it's pretty much done. The fee's will get agreed in the end as it's very much in the interest of all parties. This day and age you often get the players terms sorted out long before the clubs.

It's an in-game replay shot.

Is this another example of a player who is suddenly so much better, as he doesn't play? He's a good player, but he's not the answer to everything as some seem to think.

He's injured. And he hasn't shown anything to suggest he's a better option than anyone, to be honest. I think, hope, that both loanies are sent back pretty sharpish once the season ends.

Just feels that today is such a missed opportunity, I thought we played really well - but the same old problems haunted us up top, and we had some new problems haunting us at the back - not exactly a winning combination. Steven Davis has been really, really poor for weeks now. Seems off the pace, slow to react, his passing has been simply atrocious and he looks like he's lumbering around most weeks. I don't think Pelle played too badly today, despite what some say - Tadic was again frustrating, just flits in and out these days, teams easily contain him. Mane caused problems with his pace, a little bit erratic as he always will be, but our only real potent threat up top it has to be said. It looks to be a battle between ourselves and Spurs for 6th, no higher than that now. Thankfully we also can't finish lower than 7th, so barring a set of amazing results in league and cup over the next few weeks, we are looking at being in Europe next season which is a great achievement. Let's prioritize a goal keeper in the summer though...

This has been such a wasted opportunity, we have played well and should win - we don't usually lose games in this manner. But it's what you get when you have a bog-**** player in a critical position in the side. What I'd give for our L1 standard GK back. Toby's looks bad. Season killer without question. Who knows how long beyond that, looks like he's taking Oxygen as well.

Going by football manager ( ) he is on around 35k p/w. The new contract was meant to double his wages so he'd probably be on about 60k p/w. Can imagine any new club signing him would look to pay him upwards of 80k, huge pay rise.

I really feel for the Blackpool fans. They don't deserve all this, the club will just fall away into the distance now.

He'll probably be shipped out on loan, I don't think Van Gal fancies him a single bit. He seems to prefer Rojo, Blind or Young in that position before he considers Shaw. In hindsight, he shouldn't have moved. But the $$$$$ floated in front of his eyes, and his father - who by all accounts is a little bit annoying, pushed for the move. And £32m was just too good for anyone to turn down, really. Man Utd had their pants pulled down a bit with that deal. I think he's a good player, but I never saw him in the same class as Bale - which he was being compared to in some places. I think the fact we haven't missed him a great deal says a lot. Bertrand doesn't look any less of a player to me - a little more experienced in some situations you'd have to say. If he can sort his fitness out the injuries will dry up as well, although at the moment I don't think he has an injury - he's just not being selected. And Lallana? Couldn't give a toss. Hope he carries on struggling there. The Liverpool fans are incredibly underwhelmed.

Interesting that it mentions Elia is returning to Bremen. I wouldn't be fussed if that was true tbh.
