Looks like we've got the beating of most of the CL teams, lads.

Just for the record:

I don't fancy Meslier at all, but the other two would be canny. I liked the idea of Jack Harrison 6 months ago, but I'm not sure whether he wasn't just in a mad run of form, standing out in a bad side.

Harry Kane Declan Rice Jude Bellingham

As funny as it would be for Liverpool to still pip Man United to CL, the fact is Man United are a club that will always have money to spend cos they're such a massive global brand. If you can keep Liverpool out of the CL for a couple of seasons though, they'll start to go backwards. Even the one season will hurt them a bit.

I'm just not arsed about buying big stars. Rice would be incredible but he's not coming here. Same goes for Bellingham. I think we're about two years early for big star signing conversations. I'll be happy for us to continue to sign people I've barely heard of who turn out to be absolutely class. You buy these big lads as final jigsaw pieces. You don't start off with them when you've still got work to do on the foundations. OK PIGTAILS!?

He's drawn his last Rolfaroo. Rolf Harris, sex offender, dead at 93.

Dr Fucking Brains.

Yeah I would avoid them. We need a team not individuals that turn us into a circus.

We're behind Chelsea in the "to win the PL" odds for next season. New manager and no Europe to contend with, it probably makes sense. They're 12s and we're 14s BTW.

It's difficult to say Man United have been shit when they'll probably finish above us, but I'm fucking sick of hearing Ten Hag talked about in manager of the season conversations. Simple logic dictates that if you think Ten Hag has had an outstanding season, then you have to think that Eddie Howe has fucking pissed all over what that bald cunt has managed.

I see that fucking spenk Jonathan Liew has written an article entitled "Perhaps one day this whole age of football will require an asterisk". Write about something else mate, if it's so fucking painful for you. Us, City and PSG are referenced as the baddies, but I'm sure Mr Liew spent a good decade blowing smoke up Abramovic's Chelsea team's arse.

Ah that's even better, that this club that is so fucking blinded by its victimhood that it can't see just how easy a ride it gets from officials. Please spend your summer writing Points of View letters to the authorities while we get on with planning for the Champions League.

Aye he was in Rome. Really sad, sounds like it came out of the blue.

On the relegation picture, Leeds look fucked. Have to get a better result than both Leicester and Everton to stay up. Worth remembering that they weren't in the relegation zone when Allardyce turned up too. Three games worth of Big Sam Ball, they've been overtaken by Everton and Forest, picked up one point, and look near enough down with a game to go.

Howe and Bruno interviews on here.

19 from 24. Unmatched success. You are Dead Rubber Jonny.

Typical of the man. Wants it when there's nothing on the line. Good idea to keep my skills fresh for when it actually matters and let a BORN LOSER take this one.

Joelinton's gonna be Bruno's best man when he gets married in the summer apparently. Best midfield bromance ever.

He seems like such a canny kid.

Maybe Dean Smith just wanted Leicester to be able to get relegated in front of their own fans.

I hope Bruno responded with his high pitched laugh.
