Tottenham Hotspur lost to West Ham this weekend. Arsenal lost to Wolves midweek. Chelsea drew to Burnley last weekend. Manchester United lost to Manchester City midweek, having lost 4-0 to Everton a few days before.

"Yo, Premier League, if none of your teams want 4th place could you just give it to us? Would make life easier," the club's English account tweeted.
