    <p>So now we have to look forward to Gary Lineker hosting Match of the Day in his undies.  Every silver lining has its cloud</p>

    <p>Has Lineker ever apologised to Ranieri after his scathing comments when he was appointed the new Leicester City manager?</p>

    <p>The funny thing is that none of us are Leicester City supporters but we are all celebrating their success. </p>

    <p>I did a piece two years ago trying to decide which EPL team I should support. I got my shortlist down to Leicester City, Stoke City and Southampton.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I went with the Saints, which looked like a good decision last season . . . (and this season too, kind of!)</p>

    <p>Southampton are a good shout. Good side, good manager, play a good brand, and do well even though they are a "selling" club. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Picking Leicester would have been folly. And then this season happened</p>

    <p>Liverpool into final of Europa Cup and will win it which means they will take one of the Champions league places off either Man City or Arsenal.</p>

    <p>That's a big call against a Sevilla side going for a 3 peat</p>

    <p>Sevilla will be a tough nut to crack, they seem to have this comp wired. But we're a shout, especially is Sturridge is fit (and that's a big if). </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Two cup finals in a year isn't too bad. Kopp seems to be going well. </p>

    <p>He really has them playing the press these days - only managed to see the first half but they totally swamped Villarreal in their own half who continued to try to pass themselves out of trouble but kept on losing possession. Against better sides it might backfire and leave their dodgy defence exposed.</p>

    <p>Arsenal got the draw this morning against City so only need a point against Villa on the final day. If Man U win their game in hand they will be above City so have it in their hands.....</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>.... and then wouldn't it be delightful for Liverpool to win Eurpopa to then steal that final place away from United!  Oh how I would chuckle.  If we lose to Villa, I willl slap my own smile!</p>

    <p>I'm surprised there is no mention of today's game.  West Ham beats Man Utd to help Man City's chances of playing in the CL next year.  :)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>BUT, the big news is that the Hammer's winning goal was scored by Winston Reid, who has the honour of scoring the last ever goal at Upton Park. </p>

    <p>Leaves Man U with a chance of 4th but if results go a certain way, they could finish as low as 8th. Given Sunderland could end the relegation battle tomorrow morning, it could be the only excitement of final day.</p>
    <p>
    Meanwhile Burnley and Middlesborough into the Premier League, Burnley doing the bounce again and Middlesborough after lurking around promotion for a few seasons. Brighton v Sheff Wednesday and Hull v Derby in the play-offs, current form suggests it will be a Brighton v Hull final.</p>

    <p>and there goes the interest of the final day. Relegation confirmed for Norwich and Newcastle, with Sunderland surviving. Fuck. I wanted Rafa to pull it off, and Fat Sam to get relegated.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The last day pretty much becomes a celebration, as i think only City and Man U have anything to play for. </p>

    <p>No, thats not true.  There is everything to play for. If Chelsea beat Leicester, then it will prove that they are the better team, and in reality were the real winners.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>If that doesn't work, then John Terry will throw Vardy's shoe over the Harding stand to prove it.</p>

    <p>If Arsenal lose to Villa and City win then Arsenal come fourth and could lose out to the scousers if they win Europa!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Also if Arsenal win and Spurs lose, we come second and all ir right within the Arsenal World</p>

    <p>I don't like John Terry, i think he's a fluffybunny. But even i think it's a bit sad that an absolute club legend like Terry finishes his career with the club he absolutely loves by being sent off and missing the last game. </p>

    <p> If Arsenal lose to a Villa side that only have 17 points from 37 games and one from their last 10, I fully expect to see Arsene's head on a pike outside Holloway Road Station</p>
