🥀 The Tragedy of Romero...

IN-THE-INBOX: 2-MINS

Spurs are still alive, Cristian..!

Tottenham captain Romero has woken up to the fact his side haven’t yet been relegated and decided to fly back from Buenos Aires at the very last minute. But even his attendance could be too little too late. 🤦🏽

There could be a very weird scene in North London later with Spurs and Arsenal fans both on the streets — for very different reasons.


KEEP AN EYE ON…

+ Spurs going down IF they lose and West Ham win.

+ A 6th Champions League spot opening up IF both Liverpool win and Villa lose. Bournemouth or Brighton are the hopefuls.

+ Burnley finishing 20th IF they lose to Wolves, who have been bottom for 226 days.

All 10 games are televised with the KOs at 4pm! We’ll give The Gunners their flowers in next week’s Champions League Final newsletter.

THE BIG FACTS

Pub Ammo

🐓 If Spurs are relegated, it will be Tim Sherwood who had the highest win % of any Spurs manager in their Premier League era.

✍️ Pep Guardiola signed just ONE player from a ‘Big Six’ club in his 10 seasons as the Man City manager. Matteo Kovacic.

🐅 Hull City should’ve been relegated to League One based on xG, but instead they’ll be playing Premier League football next season.

🟥 Chelsea will finish in the bottom two of the Fair Play table for the the third consecutive season.

🎯 Bruno Fernandes has one game left to get ahead of Henry and De Bruyne’s 20 assists in a season record. Just 8 have come from open play, though.

🔝 Arsenal have won their final top-flight league game of the season 14 years in a row. Their streak started at the end of the 2011/12 season.

🆆 If West Ham are relegated, next season will be the first season since 1910-11 without a team beginning in ‘W’.

🤝 A Bournemouth draw would see them break a record for most draws (18) in a single Premier League season.

THE BIG TIPS

Guard of honour

3 points | Man City -1.75 Asian Handicap ☞ 1.875
💭 Aston Villa will potentially still be drunk after winning the Europa League Final, while Man City will want to send off Pep in style.

1 point | William Saliba over 65.5 passes ☞ 5/6
💭 There’s a big “if” question around this one. If he starts and plays 90 minutes, this is a dead cert. Will be interesting to see what Arteta does with his team selection. (NB Money back if he doesn’t play)
