In a similar fashion to last season, the games end with no winners after the Champions League final! First up was the Europa Conference League final which had a first goal in the 116th minute of Extra Time. No winners there either. The Champions League final had a late first goal, in the 74th minute, as Real Madrid ran out 2-0 winners. No winners there either. That means the winner of First Goal Season Five is... @6666! Final Rankings after Game 140 Congratulations to @6666 for hanging on to 1st place and securing his first win in this competition, taking the crown off @Viva la FCB! @Devil-Dick Willie came a close 2nd, finishing only 2 points behind the leader, whilst @Lucas hung on to 3rd place. I got the most exact scores, while @6666, @Bluewolf, @JoshBRFC & @Rucksackfranzose all amassed 3 Exacts. Thank you everyone for competing and participating - we'll be back for Season Six in August!

Hope they crash and burn after all this. Making a mockery of it all now.

I'm surprised PSG aren't giving him a go and seem intent on letting him go out on loan again.

Tottenham Home: Man Utd Third: Real Madrid Third: Juve Third: Stoke Home: Wolves Away:

Talk about falling upwards...

Good. Less chance of them nabbing Hermansen.

Something seemed up with him in the last few months of the season. Whether it was being played out of position or head was elsewhere, something was amiss. Reckon they'd do well to be shot of him while he still has some monetary value as opposed to leaving on a free, and re-invest in better players across the squad.

Bad week!

If Eze leaves the Eagles... https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/crystal-palace-transfer-news-leeds-32935637

Nope. Had one tooth removed a while back. It was that or root canal... When the dentist removed it it was so far stuck in she had to break it in 3 pieces just to dislodge it

Self-inflicted.

Further to the point then. Two northern teams got relegated last year. If they were so good and better, why didn't they stay up? Or maybe it's not actually to do with location or geography of the teams and there's differing reasons for the diminishing quality of the league.

The Northern teams shouldn't have got relegated then

@Dan scrap this. Decided to follow suit with you and go for broke on the final day instead

Good for Everton by the sounds of it. Dodged a bullet.

Envious of where Palace are heading right now under Glasner, even if they do lose one of Guehi/Eze/Olise this summer.
