What an enjoyable game it was at Everton, and if we can take advantage of it, City did us a favour with that late equaliser, and unless they lose their nerves, Everton have also handed Arsenal the Premier League title. West Ham, away, and Burnley at home, should be 6 points in the bag, finishing with Palace away on the 24th. An exiting finish to yet another season.

I hope the Arsenal team didn't pick up that bug?

Entertaining game to watch. Everton defended well City got very good goal . Then Everton lost composure. And Keane should have seen red for most dangerous tackle I’ve seen this season. Second half was like the 70s lots of fouls let go bad defending by City and some great goals. Do feel Everton bit lucky with there second pulled defender over before scoring, maybe I’m wrong allowed to grab pull now. It’s good tackling no longer allowed

Ideally, I'd like to see Spurs relegated and Arsenal end the season with no trophies. It would sadden me a club winning the premier league using dirty tactics, disgusting touch line antics, negative football and unbelievable arrogance in the manager. Arsenal used to be a well liked club (Howe and Wenger days) but Arteta has done what Trump has done to US. No, I don't like the fact the premier league won by clubs like Man City who manipulated the financial fair play but still prefer that to arrogance. As for Spurs, not quite sure they have turned the corner...so will see. Best result i could wish for is West Ham to beat Arsenal!!!

I'm sorry John C, but I'm the opposite to you entirely, as after three or more of running up's in the Premier League, Arsenal deserve to pick up the trophy, which looks pretty certain now, as surely th will not drop points against West Ham, Burnley and Palace. As far as Spurs are concerned, I really have no preferences out of either West Ham or Spurs, finish up down in the Championship, as it is not our worry, but saying that I will have a chuckle to myself, when we see the London Stadium half full, with the bubbles bursting. I go along with those fans, who think that getting rid of Moyes, was a huge mistake. As far as we are concerned, we still have an outside chance of European football, but we need to beat Bournemouth, which in the past, we have found very difficult to accomplish. Here is a real test for Marco Silva and his tactics, and at present I have little faith in them. Hopefully we will have a fully fit squad to give us a chance, but scoring those winning goals is going to be very hard, with no real strikers, which has been a complete failure this season.

Arsenal are entitled scum and deserve nothing.

John C, and George Graham, must be having a miserable night tonight with Arsenal winning. I feel really sorry for you.

"a club winning the premier league using dirty tactics" as opposed to a club continually getting away with abusing the FFP? I'll take Arsenal this time thanks.

Arsenal should be thanking us, for restoring their confidence, after gifting them 3 goals in the first half last Saturday. They looked inspired last night, after playing us. I hope that we can be inspired by our second half showing, plus a goal of course, and send Bournemouth packing on Saturday.

No problem with dirty tactics. Can’t get more British than sticking the boot in. What’s not British is squealing when you’re getting your shirt pulled then rolling round the pitch holding your face.

The very dramatic fall all player make when they are touched could result in the falling on their face, which is of course the fault of the player who touched them onto their mug.
