Were the spurs fans booing Ederson?

It's so weird - has the odd moment where he looks brilliant, but too often looks weak and off the pace.
Hopefully he'll be on it on Thursday and after a good preseason be up to Bailey's level next year.

Perhaps this is an unrealistically large overhaul of the squad, but strength in depth has clearly been a challenge this year - despite the absolutely brilliant season. I would be expecting Monchi and co will be looking to move 8 out (including loans finishing) and bring 8 in - something like the below. This feels like almost the minimum to compete in league and Europe next season.
OUT
Olsson
Carlos (if it makes financial sense)
1 of Moreno/Digne (if it makes financial sense)
Chambers
Lenglet
Hause (is he still here?)
Tim (loan)
Zaniolo
Total out of playing squad - 8
IN
2nd/3rd choice keeper depending on Gauci
4th choice CB in for Carlos
Kosta in as 2nd choice RB - or Kosta out on loan and BIG signing of 1st choice RB with Cash as backup
LB signing for Moreno/Digne
Back up DM much closer in quality to Kamara
Extra CM
Attacking Midfielder/winger extra body
Archer back
Total in - 8

I've absolutely geeked out and made an excel spreadsheet for our fixtures vs spurs ones. If we get through vs Lille then after this weekend's match vs Bournemouth both us and Spurs have 6 games in 22/23 days from 27/28th April through to 19th May - but two of ours are Conference League games. I.e. our fixture congestion is pretty similar.
I think a mid-low case prediction for us is to get to 70 points, picking up 2 wins and a draw from our remaining prem fixtures - this would be a big drop off in form for us (1.4 PPG), 73 points is probably more of a proper mid case prediction (2 PPG).
Unless Spurs can get some points off City, Arsenal or Liverpool (who will all still be fighting for the title...) they can only get 69 points, and that involves beating Chelsea at Stamford bridge.
Anything could happen of course, but it's ours to lose.

That was the least up for a villa match I’ve been all season. What a result, brilliant.

Wasn’t expecting Pau, Bailey and Tielemans to start on the bench. Big game for Tim.
