son signed a contract extension last fall, right? time to move harry on for a huge fee and re-invest in other positions since you have good cover for scoring goals?

congrats on a top-4 finish. the players were definitely challenged with firing a manager and hiring a new one mid-season. and we both finished above manchester united! maybe next season we can both finish above chelsea too.

ultimately, i'm happy where arsenal finished the season. beyond my expectations at the beginning of the season to be challenging for UCL on the last matchday. but it was clear this was such a young, inexperienced team with early exits in both national cups. hoping we can hold on to our current players (and somehow keep tierney healthy) so we can build for a better season next year.

After they lost at home to Crystal Palace back in late October, City only lost once more in their final 28 Premier League games this season.

It'll never happen, but Lewandowski. Oh, and of course, bring back my Danish son, Christan Eriksen.

According to 90 min, Tottenham Hotspur are one of the clubs who have been ‘advised’ about Robert Lewandowski’s availability by the Bayern Munich star’s representatives....

Also, no chance Harry goes anywhere. That window has closed. There's nowhere for him to go at this point. City has their striker. Pool won't pay his fees. Harry cares too much about his reputation to go to a London rival. He won't go to a side not in the Champions League, so United is out. And he wants the scoring record, so he isn't leaving the EPL. Plus, Son-Kane-Deki has been the best attacking band in the EPL since January. As long as Levy doesn't botch the off-season, Conte stays and so does Harry. Yeah, Spurs miss out on a huge payday, but they keep a player that will almost certainly go down as the greatest goal scorer in EPL history. COYS.

So happy that Jesse Marsch and Leeds stayed up. And right after the match, reports came out that Brenden Aaronson is joining Leeds. Would love to see him excel in the prem.

Potentially quite a fee Americans making moves this summer. Dest, McKennie, Pulisic, Antonee Robinson are all names I've seen in rumors.

lewa would be a dream for any club. but where would he fit? only chance would be kane leaving.

but you're right. i don't see harry leaving for any EPL club. and seems unlikely to leave for a foreign club.

With Champions League, Spurs will need much more squad depth than they currently have. They will bring in at least one top center half, which will push Davies to a reserve roll. Conte doesn't seem sold on any of the wing backs (though Doherty was playing great before he was injured), so I wouldn't be surprised to see Reguilon sold this summer and new faces brought in on both sides. One could be Ivan Perisic, who has played under Conte before and would slot right in on the left side. Speaking of players that have played for Conte, I'd love to see Christian Eriksen return. He looked good at Brentford and would be a creative spark they have been missing since he left. Beyond that, another box-to-box midfielder would be nice. I'd like to see someone like Weston McKennie added.
