    Well Spurs aren't going to win the title in the next couple of weeks so either way, it's definitely going to be true at some point.

    Pedri scored the second longest range goal at a Euros since 1980 (behind Schick's v Scotland).

    Same.  Or expecting a 4-2 with two own goals or something.

    So when Bournemouth went 1-0 up they scored the sixth goal of the season

    There have already been two EFL Cup games.

    Sheffield Wednesday 0-0 Huddersfield (decided on penalties)
    Bournemouth 5-0 Milton Keynes

    Hmmm, bit cheeky that one. Only if you count play-offs as actually winning something.

    Probably not. Even 'Forest' doesn't feel like it guarantees it being Nottingham
