Apparently United are the only side that has two 19 year olds. Read into that what you will.

Not true. Chelsea have two 19-year-olds on their roster. So do Brighton and Manchester City and Spurs and Palace and Wolves and Luton and West Ham and Newcastle and Burnley and Sheffield United and Bournemouth and Liverpool.

Fair enough, I didn't do the research. It was just what I'd seen on Twitter.

Wolves have denied it's their players.

Leicester City clinched promotion back to the Premier League after Leeds United lost at QPR today 4:0. Leeds only has one match remaining while Leicester has 2 and is up 4 points on Leeds. Ipswich Town is 5 points behind Leicester and has a match in hand but would only be able to top Leicester for the points title in the Championship.

From the BBC.

Quote

 

Premier League clubs have voted in favour of adopting an anchoring economic model, which will be linked to the earnings of the bottom club (tv and prize money).

The proposed system would operate like a spending cap.

The next stage is final analysis and drafting of rules, which will potentially be put to clubs at an AGM in June.

The model will be presented to clubs and - should clubs vote in favour then - it will replace the Profit and Sustainability Rules currently in place, from the 2025-26 season onwards.

Any new element of the financial system would come in shadow next season, to fully replace PSR in 2025-26.

“We will obviously wait to see further details of these specific proposals, but we have always been clear that we would oppose any measure that would place a ‘hard’ cap on player wages," said the PFA

“There is an established process in place to ensure that proposals like this, which would directly impact our members, have to be properly consulted on.”

Aston Villa, Manchester City and Manchester United opposed the vote, with Chelsea abstaining.

Saturday is the final day of the regular season in the Championship. 

Leicester City has already clinched the points title in the Championship. It's down to Ipswich Town and Leeds United for the 2nd automatic promotion spot. Ipswich Town is ahead of Leeds United by 3 points and would only need a draw vs. Huddersfield Town to get the 2nd spot. Leeds United would have to defeat Southampton and hope Ipswich Town loses as Leeds would have the tiebreaker on goal difference. 

Southampton is 4th in the table and have already qualified for the playoff. It's down to Norwich City, West Brom, and Hull City for the final 2 playoff spots. Norwich City has all but clinched a spot as they are 3 points ahead of Hull City would only need a draw away at Birmingham City to get one of the remaining playoff spots. West Brom is only 2 points ahead of Hull City so Hull City would get the final playoff spot if they win away at Plymouth Argyle and West Brom loses at home to Preston North End. If Hull City wins and West Brom draws, then Hull City would have to make up a +11 goal difference that West Brom currently has.

Ipswich Town defeats Huddersfield Town 2:0 and clinch the 2nd automatic promotion spot to the Premier League. 2nd straight season Ipswich Town has been promoted and first time since the 2001-02 season they'll be playing in the Premier League. Hull City lost at Plymouth Argyle so West Brom and Norwich City get the final two playoff spots. 

Playoff matchups will be Leeds United-Norwich City and Southampton-West Brom with the first legs of the playoff matches played next Sunday.

I’d like West Brom to come up.
