Forest 2-0 up after two quickfire goals.

And Southampton pull one back.

No surprise. The midfield think they are god's gift (madders, Youri and Soumaré) so they don't have to defend. There was no cover for our defence at all. No heart. At least 14 players are leaving at the end of the season and they're playing like it.

Terrible day for HIF and Leicester's survival hopes so far. We'll have to see whether Brighton can come back, and the outcome of the Forest vs. Southampton game later.


I said after the Everton debacle when we allowed them a point (and lost 2) that they'd finish above us. They have fight in them and know that's what is needed. Forest should beat Southampton but we shouldn't have put ourselves in this position. The table doesn't lie, we are ****.

Even our saints let us down.

Liverpool then Newcastle with a final day match against West Ham. We know that if we don't beat 1 of them we're definitely down. Of course it could be signed and sealed before the West Ham match. Rotherham next year.

Southampton officially relegated.

Where does Ward-Prowse go? You'd think he'd be on the move this summer.

I think he is sheer class. He should be in a top 4 team and playing champion's league football. Liverpool would suit him down to the ground. I'd say that I'd choose him over Maddison any day of the week.

There are a few decent young players at Southampton. That defender is one of the best too.

There's talk of Romeo Lavia going to basically all of the top teams. In terms of fit he'd probably be best at Liverpool, as they're going to need a successor to Fabinho.

JWP, I could see him at Newcastle or Villa.

2-0. Absolutely horrible from Arsenal there, the defence was caught sleeping. Brilliant performance from Brighton, completely deserve their European place.

Mitoma and Mac Allister are fantastic. If Mitoma improved his finishing he'd be the complete winger.

Now it's 3-0.

Arsenal were up 8 points to now down 4. Quite the downfall.

He's too good for Villa. Really a big 4 talent.

If Leicester weren't going down, I'd have to laugh.

What a bottle job.

And Brighton hammered by Everton for them to go above us. Beaten by Forest for them to go above us yet beating Arsenal and Man U.

Big blow for Brentford as Toney gets suspended for 8 month. But I think we all saw it coming. Brilliant season otherwise for both him and Brentford. Frank must be in the running for manager of the year, top 10 finish while on low budget, big wins vs Man City, Liverpool, Man United and Brighton.

Wolves beating Everton. It's the hope that kills.

Away from home they get given 10 minutes of injury time and score in the last seconds.

Football!!!!

Forest beat Arsenal to stay up and hand City the league in the process, even if it was just a formality at this point.

Looking ominous for Leicester and Everton since Leeds have Spurs final day, and will likely win.
