FILTHY @ FIVE (FILTHY FELLAS)

FILTHY FELLAS SEASON 12 IS UPON US!THE FIRST AND ONLY HURDLE STANDING IN OUR WAY IS THE COMMUNITY SHIELD, AKA THE ENGLISH SUPER DISH.ARGUABLY THE TWO BEST TEAMS IN THE COUNTRY GO HEAD-TO-HEAD TO SET THE TONE FOR THE NEW PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON.ALTHOUGH HISTORY SUGGESTS THAT WINNING IT ISN’T ALWAYS A GOOD THING.ASIDE FROM PREVIEWING THE SUPER DISH, WE’VE DECIDED TO ASSIGN OURSELVES SQUAD NUMBERS, AS WELL AS GOING OFF-PISTE AND CHATTING A WHOLE LOAD OF INTERESTING NOTHING.

PRE-SEASON IS ABOUT TO END AND THE FOOTBALL SEASON IS ABOUT TO KICK OFF.WE STILL NEED A FEW GAMES TO GET OUR GROOVE BACK, BUT WE’RE FILTHY, SO THAT’S NORMAL. BUT THE TEAMS LOOKING TO CHALLENGE FOR THE TITLE, OR RETAIN IT, AREN’T NECESSARILY LOOKING RECOGNISABLE AND, FOR SOME, DON’T SEEM TO HAVE THE ENERGY…BUT, IT WAS A WORLD CUP YEAR, PRE-SEASON IS ALL OVER THE PLACE, THERE ARE STILL TRANSFERS TO BE MADE AND FUTURES TO BE BUILT.SO MAYBE WE SHOULDN’T BE READING TOO MUCH INTO IT JUST YET.

THE PREMIER LEAGUE IS ENTERING ONE OF ITS BIGGEST MANAGERIAL SHAKE-UPS EVER.PEP'S GONE. KLOPP'S GONE. THE TOUCHLINE HAS SUDDENLY GOT A LOT LESS FAMILIAR.HAS THE LEAGUE GOT WEAKER... OR JUST A LOT MORE UNPREDICTABLE?THIS SEASON, 11 MANAGERS HAVE TAKEN CHARGE OF THEIR CLUBS SINCE 2026, AND ONLY FIVE HAVE BEEN IN THE JOB FOR MORE THAN TWO YEARS. THE OLD GUARD HAS ALMOST COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED.PREVIOUS SEASONS LIKE 2013/14, 2018/19 AND 2021/22 SAW PLENTY OF MANAGERIAL CHANGES, BUT THERE WAS ALWAYS A STRONG CORE OF EXPERIENCED BOSSES. THIS TIME? NOT SO MUCH.WITH MIKEL ARTETA NOW THE ONLY CURRENT PREMIER LEAGUE-WINNING MANAGER IN THE LEAGUE, COULD WE EVEN SEE ANOTHER FIRST-SEASON TITLE WINNER?CHAOS OR A NEW GOLDEN ERA? EITHER WAY, THIS SEASON SHOULD BE ANYTHING BUT BORING.

THE SEASON IS FAST APPROACHING AND HERE AT FILTHY WE’RE STILL VERY MUCH IN PRE-SEASON… MORE TRANSFER UPDATES FOR THE EVER-EVOLVING VINÍ JR. TO ARSENAL SAGA, AS THE DEAL REMAINS VERY MUCH ALIVE. WHILE THERE'S STILL A SENSE OF UNCERTAINTY SURROUNDING IT, THERE'S DEFINITELY MORE REASON FOR OPTIMISM WHEN IT COMES TO BRUNO GUIMARÃES' POTENTIAL MOVE TO ARSENAL, WITH NEWCASTLE LOOKING SET TO LOSE YET ANOTHER KEY PLAYER. THEY'RE PLAYING A DANGEROUS GAME—THE AMOUNT OF TOP TALENT THEY'VE LOST OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF SEASONS IS BECOMING A REAL CONCERN.CHELSEA HAVE MADE EVEN MORE SIGNINGS, INCLUDING FOOTBALLING FAN FAVOURITE DAT GUY WELBZ. ON TOP OF THAT, CHELSEA CONTINUE TO DO WHAT THEY DO BEST: SEEMINGLY BREAKING THE RULES AND SOMEHOW GETTING AWAY WITH IT. DOES THAT GIVE MANCHESTER CITY AND THEIR 115 CHARGES A REASON TO FEEL OPTIMISTIC?

WE TAKE A LITTLE NOSTALGIA TRIP TO KICK THINGS OFF, HEADING BACK TO AROUND 725–675 BCE AS WE TALK THE ODYSSEY (WHICH STEVO KNOWS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT!). FROM THERE, WE DIVE INTO ALL KINDS OF MYTHICAL CREATURES BEFORE FINISHING WITH THE MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS...BEFORE WE EVENTUALLY GET ROUND TO THE FOOTBALL AND DISCUSS THE LIKELY CONTENDERS TO TOPPLE ARSENAL'S PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE DEFENCE. NEW MANAGERS, NEW SQUADS, NEW METAL, IT'S ALL HERE!

BIG L REST IN PEACE. BASKETBALL IS OUR FAVOURITE SPORT… AFTER FOOTBALL. THINGS COULD BE ABOUT TO GET A WHOLE LOT WORSE FOR MANCHESTER CITY. WITH PEP GUARDIOLA SET TO LEAVE, THE 115 CHARGES STILL LOOMING AND THE POSSIBILITY OF LOSING RODRI, HOW WILL CITY MOUNT A TITLE CHALLENGE AGAINST THE CURRENT CHAMPIONS, ARSENAL?MEANWHILE, ARSENAL COULD BE ON THE VERGE OF MAKING ARGUABLY ONE OF THE BIGGEST SIGNINGS IN PREMIER LEAGUE HISTORY BY LANDING VINICIUS JR... BUT THE BIGGEST QUESTION IS: WOULD IT ACTUALLY WORK AT ARSENAL?!

THE WORLD CUP IS OVER AND, WITH INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL FINALLY TAKING A BREAK, WE CAN ALL CATCH OUR BREATH... ALTHOUGH ONLY UNTIL 21ST SEPTEMBER, WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS IN ITSELF.THIS WEEK, WE BAND TOGETHER TO TAKE A LONG, HARD LOOK AT OURSELVES AND REALISE WE DESPERATELY NEED A PRE-SEASON OF OUR OWN, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO OUR ETIQUETTE. CAN WE TURN THINGS AROUND FOR THE NEW SEASON? ONLY TIME WILL TELL.WE ALSO COVER A HOST OF MAJOR TRANSFER STORIES THAT HAVE DOMINATED THE HEADLINES SINCE THE WORLD CUP, INCLUDING CHELSEA HIJACKING ARSENAL'S MOVE FOR MORGAN ROGERS.

AS SOME OF THE BOYS ARE HEADING BACK OUT TO THE USA.WE SAY GOODBYE TO CRISTIANO RONALDO AND PORTUGAL IN WHAT IS LIKELY TO BE HIS LAST WORLD CUP, HAVING SCORED JUST ONE KNOCKOUT GOAL ACROSS SIX WORLD CUPS. STINKY.MESSI AND ARGENTINA PULL OFF AN INCREDIBLE COMEBACK AGAINST AN EGYPT SIDE THAT HAD ONLY EVER WON ONE WORLD CUP MATCH, DOING SO IN SOMEWHAT "CONTROVERSIAL" FASHION.MBAPPÉ HAS THE WORLD TALKING AS FRANCE FACE OFF AGAINST RIGHT-WING POLITICIAN CELESTE AMARILLA. FRANCE ALSO DRAW LEVEL WITH MESSI AS THE TOURNAMENT'S JOINT TOP GOALSCORERS AND BECOME THE FIRST TEAM TO REACH THE SEMI-FINALS.AND FINALLY, ENGLAND AND KANE FACE OFF AGAINST NORWAY AND HAALAND IN WHAT'S SET TO BE AN ALL-TIMER... WHO WILL COME OUT VICTORIOUS IN THE ANGLO-NORDIC DERBY?!

WAS A LITTLE BLUE PILL THE REASON BEHIND ENGLAND'S SUCCESS?!THIS WORLD CUP HAS BEEN FUELLED BY CONTROVERSY, AND THE US OF A DIDN'T HELP ITSELF ANY FURTHER AS TRUMP PULLED THE TRUMP CARD TO ALLOW BALOGUN TO PLAY AGAINST BELGIUM.IS LIONEL MESSI A GENIUS?

THEY STILL LOOK FLAT, BUT THEY'VE PROGRESSED. NOW COMES A DAUNTING TASK: A LAST-16 CLASH AGAINST CO-HOSTS MEXICO AT THE AZTECA STADIUM.HARRY KANE STILL SEEMS TO BE ENGLAND'S ANSWER TO EVERY PROBLEM AT THE MINUTE, ALTHOUGH MEXICO'S HEIGHT AND EXPANSIVE STYLE MIGHT ACTUALLY WORK IN ENGLAND'S FAVOUR...OH, AND THE PREMIER LEAGUE IS NEARLY BACK...

WILL HE BE AT THE NEXT WORLD CUP?! ENGLAND HAVE HAD TO ADAPT TO PLAYING “SMALLER TEAMS” WITHOUT THEIR USUAL CREATORS, SO ARE WE ABOUT TO SEE THE SAME AGAIN FROM ENGLAND AS THEY PREPARE TO FACE OFF AGAINST DR CONGO? AND SHOULD THEY MAKE IT THROUGH, IS THE ENGLAND SETUP BETTER SUITED TO TAKE ON MORE EXPANSIVE FOOTBALLING TEAMS?! AND IT’S NEVER HAPPENED IN 96 YEARS OF THE COMPETITION, BUT DO WE THINK A TEAM OUTSIDE OF EUROPE OR SOUTH AMERICA CAN WIN THE WORLD CUP? THE GAME IS FORVER EVOLVING BUT TWO HOUSEHOLDS NAMES ARE STILL COMPETITING ON THE WORLDS BIGGGEST STAGE ONE IS TOP GOALSCOEREr AND THE OTHER HAS MANAGED A BRACE AGAINST A PLUMBER, DOES THE GOAT DEBATE HAVE TO BE PUT TO BED? AND ELLIOT ANDERSON BECOMES THE MOST EXPENSIVE ENGLISH PLAYER AND SECOND HIHHEST PL SIGNING OF ALL-TIME… CAN HE LIVE UP TO THE PRICE TAG?! ALL THIS AND MORE ON THIS WEEKS FILTHY @ FIVE.

NAMELY, COUGH MESSI BECOMING THE ALL-TIME TOP SCORER AT WORLD CUPS.MBAPPÉ HAS ALREADY EQUALLED KLOSE’S RECORD, AND THE ALL-TIME GOALSCORING RECORD COULD BE BROKEN AT ANY MOMENT. OWEN GOAL HAS FEATURED PROMINENTLY THIS WORLD CUP, ALREADY HITTING DOUBLE FIGURES TO LEAD THE GOALSCORING CHARTS, AND IS LIKELY TO BREAK THE RECORD OF 12 GOALS IN A SINGLE TOURNAMENT.WE CATCH UP WITH THE EN-GER-LAND LOT AND ASK WHY THEY’RE NOT TICKING AND WHAT THEY NEED TO DO TO FIX IT.AND REMEMBER, IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT THE WORLD CUP. FOOTBALL MUST GO ON… SO WE RUN DOWN THE LATEST TRANSFER NEWS EMERGING FROM THE PREMIER LEAGUE.LAST THING… WHY ON EARTH IS THE TEAMS’ ENTRANCE MUSIC DIDDY MUSIC?

THE TRUE UNDERDOGS OF THIS WORLD CUP. CAN THEY MAKE THE KNOCKOUTS?!THERE HAVE BEEN LOTS OF GOALS THIS TOURNAMENT, BUT IT'S JUST NOT CLICKING FOR THE LAST OF BELGIUM'S GOLDEN GENERATION.AND CRISTIANO RONALDO AND PORTUGAL NEED A WIN TONIGHT AGAINST UZBEKISTAN... BUT IS REMOVING RONALDO FROM THE EQUATION THE ANSWER TO THE PROBLEM?!

HE'S NOT FAR OFF THE WORLD CUP GOALSCORING RECORD EITHER... BUT IT LOOKS LIKE MESSI WILL BREAK THAT, AS HE EQUALS KLOSE'S RECORD OF 16 WITH A HAT-TRICK AGAINST ALGERIA...AND IT LOOKS LIKE PORTUGAL MIGHT HAVE A PROBLEM... AND IT MIGHT BE CRISTIANO RONALDO.

WELL MOST OF THEM, BUT WE’VE GOT A BUNCH OF THE MANDEM HOLDING DOWN THE FORT. A LOT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE START OF THE WORLD CUP SO THE BOYS DO THEIR BEST TO RUN THROUGH ALL THE CONTROVERSY (ALREADY) ENGLAND GETTING ROBBED AND THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ‘DEAR ENGLAND’, PLAYERS LIGHTING UP THE FIELD AND HERITAGE. THERE’S A LOT TO GET THROUGH, LIKE WE AFIRMENTIONED, SO HOLD TIGHT AND ENJOY… THE BLISSFUL SILENCE AND UNINTERUPTED EPISODE.

THE WORLD CUP KICKS OFF IN 2 DAYS AND TEMPERATURES ARE RISING ACROSS THE USA. COULD THE HEAT BECOME A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR FANS AND PLAYERS?COLE PALMER IS IN THE NIKE WORLD CUP ADVERT... BUT NOT THE SQUAD. WHAT DOES THAT DO FOR HIS BRAND? PEREZ HAS WON THE REAL MADRID PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AGAIN, MEANING MOURINHO'S RETURN LOOKS ALL BUT CONFIRMED. CAN HE TAKE REAL MADRID BACK TO THE TOP OF SPAIN AND EUROPE?FOREST HAVE MADE THEIR STANCE CLEAR.

THE BOYS SIT DOWN AND PREDICT WHO THEY THINK WILL WIN THE 2026 WORLD CUP, AS WELL AS DISCUSSIONS AROUND NEW RULES BEING IMPLEMENTED, POTENTIAL DARK HORSES AND WHO WILL BE THE TOP SCORER AT THE TOURNAMENT!

THEY SAID ARSENAL WOULD BOTTLE THE LEAGUE, BUT ARSENAL PUT THE DOUBTERS IN THEIR PLACE.THE NEXT BIG QUESTION WAS WHETHER THEY COULD WIN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. UNFORTUNATELY FOR THEM, THEY COULD NOT.IN THE END, THE NOW, BACK-TO-BACK EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS PSG CAME OUT ON TOP, ALBEIT VIA A PENALTY SHOOTOUT AFTER ARSENAL MISSED TWO SPOT KICKS.WHATEVER WILL BE, WILL BE.THIS WEEK, SLIM JOINS THE PANEL AS THE BOYS TRY TO ANALYSE THE FINAL AND DISCUSS WHETHER THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT FOR ARSENAL AND ITS CURRENT SQUAD.OH, AND LIVERPOOL LOOK TO BE IN EVEN MORE MUD.

ARSENAL ARE ON THE BRINK OF A HISTORIC PREMIER LEAGUE AND CHAMPIONS LEAGUE DOUBLE… THE ONLY THING IN THEIR WAY IS A FREEFLOWING FREESCORING PSG SIDE. THE BOYS SIT DOWN AND ARGUE THE FOR’S AND AGAINST’S WE HEAR THE ARSENAL SIDE AND WE HEAR THE MAN UTD/ LIVERPOOL SIDE. 🚨 DON’T MISS THE FILTHY FELLAS ‘UNITE THE KINGDOM’ UK TOUR — GET YOUR TICKETS NOW! 🎟️LIVERPOOL 11/08https://gotobeat.com/gig/filthy-fellas-unite-the-kingdom-uk-tour-live-in-liverpool-TP/MANCHESTER 13/08https://gotobeat.com/gig/filthy-fellas-unite-the-kingdom-uk-tour-live-in-manchester-lB/LONDON 20/08https://gotobeat.com/gig/filthy-fellas-unite-the-kingdom-uk-tour-live-in-london-vD/

IT’S BEEN A WEEK SINCE ARSENAL WON THE LEAGUE, AND THE ARSENAL FANS HAVE MADE IT VERY APPARENT. SOME HAVEN’T SLEPT, AND SOME HAVEN’T LEFT THE EMIRATES AND ARE NOW HOMELESS, ACCORDING TO MARGS.THIS WEEK, WE LOOSELY BREAK DOWN THE SEASON AND LOOK AT THE POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES. WE EVEN BROUGHT DOWN FILTHY FAMILY’S MICHAIL ANTONIO TO DISCUSS WEST HAM’S RELEGATION, JARROD BOWEN’S OMISSION FROM THE WORLD CUP SQUAD, AND SHARE SOME STORIES FROM HIS NEW BOOK, ‘HUMANS NOT ROBOTS’.WE LOOK AT THE ENGLAND WORLD CUP SQUAD, AND THE HOT WEATHER HAS GOT EVERYONE FIRING STRAYS. THIS ONE’S SUMMER MADNESS.

CONGRATULATIONS… ARSENAL ARE PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS!THAT’S RIGHT! YOU READ IT RIGHT, AND NO DOUBT YOU’VE HEARD IT… ARSENAL ARE PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS!ARSENAL FANS ON THIS SHOW HAVE BEEN THROUGH A LOT SINCE THE SHOW’S INCEPTION.HERE’S AN EPISODE OF FILTHY FELLAS WHERE THE PANEL IS ARSENAL MAJORITY (AND TWO MAN UTD FANS).CONGRATS TO VILLA AND UNAI EMERY AS WELL!OH, AND I THINK WE’RE ALL HOPING SPURS GO DOWN ON THE FINAL DAY TOO…

IT MUST HAVE FELT LIKE A LIFETIME FOR THAT FINAL WHISTLE TO BLOW FOR ARSENAL LAST NIGHT. A NERVY 90 MINUTES, WITH POTENTIAL RED CARDS, PENALTIES AND CHEEKS, BUT ALAS, A WIN’S A WIN, AND IT PUTS ARSENAL WITHIN TOUCHING DISTANCE. THEY COULD WIN IT TONIGHT IF THE UNBEATEN-IN-16-GAMES BOURNEMOUTH CAN STOP MAN CITY FROM WINNING AT THE VITALITY TONIGHT!THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN A LOT OF MANAGERIAL SHIFTS IN THE LAST FEW DAYS. PEP IS LEAVING CITY, WITH HIS LIKELY REPLACEMENT BEING MARESCA. MOURINHO’S BACK AT REAL MADRID, AND XABI ALONSO HAS GONE TO CHELSEA.A SAD ANNOUNCEMENT THE OTHER DAY… SEAMUS COLEMAN IS SET TO LEAVE EVERTON AFTER 17 YEARS. SO VERY SAD.WE ALSO LOOK AT BRUNO FERNANDES EQUALLING THE ASSISTS-IN-A-PREMIER-LEAGUE-SEASON RECORD, AND WHY IT’S BECOME SO IMPORTANT TO SOCIAL MEDIA. AND LIVERPOOL HAVE 12 LOSSES IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE THIS SEASON, WHILE CONCEDING 52 GOALS, THAT TITLE DEFENCE GETS WORSE EVERY WEEK.OH, AND STEVO HAS A RECOMMENDATION FOR A BARBER IN JAMESTOWN… IF YOU’RE EVER THERE?

WHAT A CRAZY WEEKEND FOR THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE PREMIER LEAGUE! MAN CITY SCORED ANOTHER 3 GOALS TO UP THE PRESSURE ON LEADERS ARSENAL.ARSENAL WENT TO WEST HAM ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND THOUGHT THEY’D WON IT WITH A LATE TROSSARD GOAL, BUT WILSON HAD OTHER IDEAS, SMASHING IN AN EQUALISER IN THE 95TH MINUTE… BUT VAR HAD OTHER IDEAS AND DENIED WEST HAM THE EQUALISER, SO ARSENAL GOT THE WIN AND ONLY NEED 2 MORE WINS TO SECURE THEIR FIRST PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE IN 22 YEARS!VILLA DROPPED MORE POINTS, SO THEY REALLY NEED TO WIN THIS MIDWEEK BEFORE THE PREMIER LEAGUE ENDS. EUROPA LEAGUE FINALISTS BOURNEMOUTH ARE ONLY 4 POINTS AWAY, SO CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FOOTBALL NEXT SEASON ISN’T GUARANTEED YET!CHELSEA AND LIVERPOOL HAVE HAD HORRIFIC DEFENSIVE DISPLAYS THIS SEASON, AND BOTH SET NEW PREMIER LEAGUE RECORDS FOR THEMSELVES.AND THE MBAPPÉ / REAL MADRID SAGA IS REALLLLLY HEATING UP!

IT’S BEEN A LONG ROAD OVER THE LAST TWO DECADES, BUT THEY’VE DONE IT IN STYLE, MUCH LIKE THE ARSENAL TEAM OF 05/06, WHO FAILED AT THE LAST HURDLE. CAN THE 25/26 TEAM MAKE THE DREAM A REALITY? ONLY PSG STAND IN THEIR WAY.LET’S NOT FORGET THIS ARSENAL TEAM ARE ALSO 3 WINS AWAY FROM A PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE, AND RELEGATION-PLACED WEST HAM STAND IN THEIR WAY THIS SUNDAY.MAN CITY FACE OFF AGAINST A BRENTFORD TEAM LOOKING TO SECURE EUROPE AFTER MOST WROTE THEM OFF. AND CAN CHELSEA LIFT THE CURSE THAT TRUMP LEFT ON THEM IN AMERICA? WE’VE CONCLUDED THAT CHELSEA WERE CURSED, IN CASE YOU MISSED THAT.AND FINALLY WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE PETITION BY REAL MADRID FANS TO GET MBAPPE OUT THE CLUB... 27 MILLION SIGNATURES AND COUNTING! 

#ad Check for FREE if you are due a refund in 60 seconds at: https://refundclub.co.uk/filthyARSENAL THUMPED FULHAM, AND MAN CITY COULD ONLY SALVAGE A DRAW AT THE HILL DICKINSON… CAN ARSENAL WIN THEIR REMAINING THREE PREMIER LEAGUE GAMES AND BE CROWNED PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS?! ONLY THE NEXT THREE GAMES WILL TELL.LOONS MADE A BET AND HAS BASICALLY LOST IT, BECAUSE UNITED’S WIN OVER THEM PUTS MAN UTD 6 PTS CLEAR OF LIVERPOOL.CHELSEA CONTINUE TO BE A MESS, AS SAVAGE DAN TRIES TO CLEAR THINGS UP FROM A GEO-POLITICAL STANDPOINT AND COULD UNAI EMERY MISS OUT ON THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE?!

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON THE CHAMPIONS (LIVERPOOL, IN CASE YOU’D FORGOTTEN) HAD WON 5 GAMES AND MANCHESTER UNITED HAD ONLY WON 2. IT’S NOW GAMEWEEK 35 AND SINCE THEN MANCHESTER UNITED HAVE REPLACED RUBEN AMORIM WITH EX-MANCHESTER UNITED LEGEND MICHAEL CARRICK AND UNITED HAVE THE CHANCE TO GO 6 POINTS AHEAD OF LIVERPOOL.THE QUESTION IS, IF MANCHESTER UNITED FINISH THE SEASON ON A HIGH, DO THEY STICK OR TWIST WITH MICHAEL CARRICK?THE RELEGATION BATTLE GOES ON AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE DECIDED ON THE LAST DAY OF THE SEASON, EVEN THOUGH BOTH SPURS AND WEST HAM HAVE TOUGH AWAY TRIPS THIS WEEKEND.AND ARSENAL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO 6 POINTS CLEAR AT THE TOP OF THE PREMIER LEAGUE (NOT FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS SEASON) WHICH WOULD MAYBE ADD A LITTLE BIT OF PRESSURE TO THE INFORM CHASING TEAM MANCHESTER CITY WHO TRAVEL TO EVERTON… IS THERE ANOTHER TWIST IN THIS TITLE CHALLENGE?!OH AND KAYODE DAMALI FOR MAYOR OF LEWISHAM IS IN THE BUILDING.

ARSENAL WON THEIR FIRST PREMIER LEAGUE GAME SINCE MARCH 14TH… SOME WOULD SAY IT WAS ANOTHER TENSE AFFAIR, BUT IT’S PUT THE GUNNERS 3 PTS CLEAR OF MAN CITY (WHO HAVE A GAME IN HAND). MAN CITY ADDED ANOTHER FINAL TO THEIR CALENDAR AS THEY NARROWLY BRUSHED AWAY SOUTHAMPTON AT WEMBLEY. COULD PEP REALLY MANAGE TO ACHIEVE ANOTHER DOMESTIC TREBLE?!IN THE LONDON RELEGATION BATTLE… IT TOOK THEM 115 DAYS, BUT SPURS FINALLY MANAGED TO WIN A GAME, AND THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO LEAPFROG WEST HAM, BUT CALLUM WILSON FOUND A DRAMATIC WINNER. MONUMENTAL STUFF!IT’S THE FIRST LEG OF THE ‘HARAM BALL’ FINAL TOMORROW. A WIN HERE FOR ARSENAL WOULD REALLY MAKE THEM BELIEVE A PREMIER LEAGUE & CHAMPIONS LEAGUE DOUBLE COULD HAPPEN!AND UNFORTUNATELY, MO SALAH GOT INJURED IN LIVERPOOL’S WIN OVER PALACE, WHICH MEANS THAT MIGHT BE THE LAST TIME THE ANFIELD FAITHFUL SEE HIM… SAD STUFF…
