I think the Americans are digging deep to save face and keep this team up. Having said that, none of the rumors/news about additions have been earth shattering.

It's really a catch-22, you want to spend money and get (the best) players, but who wants to start for a relegation team when they can just ride pine for a cup winner, looking at you john terry. They have to cruise the lower levels and hope for a diamond in the rough.

on the bright side, their U-23 team has done well this year

You've got an impossible schedule from here on out including away games against Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea over the next 5 weeks and only two games left against a potential relegation side (Hull in March; Sunderland, in May).

Barring a miracle, it looks like you're going to need a ton of luck to stay up Bri

Top 4:

Chelsea
Spurs
City
Liverpool

Arsenal get to play halfway around the world mid week and Sundays. Couldn't happen to a better side.

Swans avoid the drop zone in dramatic fashion, finding safety in the penultimate week of the season.

Spurs hang 13 points on opponents the final 2 weeks securing the Golden Boot for Kane and closing the Lane with a dominant performance over United.

Terrific season, particularly for the Northsiders who haven't finished this high since 1962. Would have been nice to close down the Lane as champs, but there was no embarrassment in finishing the season with the highest goal total in the league, best GD, all without Harry Kane for 3 months.

Looking forward to representing the PL in the Champions League with this squad.
