don’t forget, Everton just had their end of season, end of stadium party

This is the most difficult league in the world, underlined by the fact that two strugglers are in the Europa League final. the fact that we went into game 37 with second place in our hands and nearly won the game is incredible progress. This is the best season in my lifetime regardless of what happens against Everton.

Lineker forced to completely step down from BBC after final Match of the Day

yes due to the Forest vs City situation. But we will struggle to get it without Isak

We are finishing 7th with no Isak

Looking at Everton pre-match today, next week will be a bit anti-climatic for them won’t it?

Thought he died

He’d be perfect for Palace, West Ham or Spurs

When is the ‘No Arteta’ meltdown?

that’s not the point. We will play 50-60 games next season. Isak can’t play them all + what if he is properly injured? the fact that we’d rather play an injured Isak right now speaks volumes about the alternatives. there has to be a striker incoming

So much red

It really does underline that unless we believe Osula can start up to 20 games next season, a striker must be our number one priority this summer

Didn’t realise Tindall and Purches commute from Bournemouth

I have reminded myself that this is an Eddie Howe managed team. Whoever we sign the following players will be in Howe’s preferred first XI next season with anyone else getting bedded in: Tino Hall or Trippier Botman or Burn Tonali Joelinton Bruno Gordon Isak so that is eight first team places filled no matter what. Additionally it is going to take a bloody good player to replace the incumbents in the other three positions. i suspect we will only sign 1 player for those three semi vacant positions. Maybe 2 if value can be found. i therefore think we will mostly be looking at players that we believe can replicate the progress Tino has made over two seasons. in which case need to consider any positions where the cover is not quite at the standard we need (striker and CM)

What about Ian Rush? Or if we can’t get him, Callum Wilson?

Lineker in bother again over his social media

We should do this for our woman’s team

How can the be in better form when we have closed quite a gap?

Maybe add Nuno to the list of people that can now lead Spurs to Europa League glory

Nuno gone?

I think today highlights what we could do with Delap replacing Isak for the last 30 of these types of games
