Arsenal fan here, not trolling. Just.... discussing.

I just want to say that I respect Tottenham a lot, I know we're rivals but that doesn't stop us from being friends. The top post in this subreddit seems to be the general consensus in here but... isn't it a bit much? I mean, as someone looking in from the outside, Spurs have made huge strides this season. Most of the talk over in r/gunners was about how Spurs were playing the football we used to, and doing it on a shoestring - while we were finally spending some money and going nowhere fast.

I mean, yeah today as an individual performance would have been a disgrace for any team in the top half of the table, but to be talking about clearing out a big old chunk of the team, and being embarrassed about a 3rd place finish, seems a bit much. Spurs' best season in a while - they understandably lost a massive amount of morale when the title run was confirmed as over, and obviously that huge loss of motivation impacted on the end of the season. That seems like all it is to me.

I mean, since when has 3rd place and guaranteed Champions League football been such a disaster?
