Villa belong in the premier league imo... Fulham with that new stand expansion are really consolidating themselves into if not a top 20 club, a top 30 club in England, that's an impressive project. My preference would be one of those two. Boro and the Rams are both decent clubs and an improvement over a Bournemouth but hard to get too excited about being in kind of random small cities and both have variations on those super bland erector set stadiums with no soul.
So Huddersfield stay up with a 1-1 against Chelsea.
Swansea are all but down. Mathematically, they can survive but it would require some large scorelines. So for instance if Southampton lost 5-0 to Man City (very possible) Swansea would need to beat Stoke by a similar scoreline (far less likely)
0 away points for Wenger in 2018. Nothing else to say really. And for Huddersfield to survive on the backs of draws against City and Chelsea is impressive.

That's a pretty terrible showing by Chelsea with CL on the line, Huddersfield were well organized but are one of the least talented teams I've ever seen stay up. Outside of that run Mounie had earlier in the year I don't remember seeing anybody there play at a level that would have them in the 11 for a top 10 side.
Gotta feel good for their fans though, regardless of talent supporting a team like that probably hasn't had a lot of glory. Imagine there were a more than a few pints sunk in Yorkshire earlier today.

Apparently Huddersfield cancelled their flight home so they could drink beer on the bus! That's awesome!
Pretty happy with the overall season for Spurs. I had hoped that we could get to the FA Cup final of course, and I think that trophies are coming. It kind of feels like we stayed the same as last year, albeit 3rd instead of 2nd. But at the outset of the season I think that we were pegged by quite a few to finish in 5th-7th because we had the season at Wembley. I'm glad that's over and now we move to our permanent home!
There were some highlights of course. Beating Madrid at Wembley was amazing, and even the draw with them in Madrid and in Turin were exciting. Before we knew how poor they were this year, beating Dortmund was a great win. We weren't expected to make it out of the "group of death" in the CL in general, so that was awesome!
I'm already looking forward to the next campaign and it will be interesting to see the comings and goings this summer.

So, in summary: you expected nothing and that's what you got. The life of a Spurs fan I guess.
