With just a handful of fixtures left in the Premier League season, it's crunch time on many fronts for the London clubs in the competition.
Arsenal are chasing the title with Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United and West Ham vying for European spots. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace and Brentford look to stay away from a relegation scrap as Chelsea and Fulham chase the top half.
Away from the pitch, clubs will be preparing for the summer transfer window. As well as incomings, teams will be managing their wage bills and outgoings with several stars set to leave their clubs come the end of the campaign. That loss can be a gain for other sides, who may set about courting stars with expiring contracts already.
