I told you earlier the title race was over.

I've seen it twice now with Liverpool. And both of those Liverpool teams not only lost by a single point but also had more points than Arsenal this season.

Not a Spurs fan but wish this narrative would stop. It does appear as if some, maybe many, Spurs fans wanted the club to lose against Manchester City, however, the players actually played about as well as they could. Manchester City is just better.

Seems to me you're just bitter Arsenal (March 31) was the last club to take points off of them.

EDIT: Even if Son scored that goal, there was no guarantee the match ends in a tie.

they have 115 charges over their heads , other PL teams took points deductions this year with charges levied after city's. They'll get off scot free.

Of course i'm bitter and a little emotional lol who wouldn't be. I have blamed my teams december form time and time again here over the past couple of weeks. Our inability to score in those games we dominated killed us off.

Heung Min Son did not want to score lol but yeah there was going to be at least 10ish minutes left and no guarantees it holds and Villa probably try today as well.

Next season, we go again!

On my wishlist: a striker, a dm, cb and a left back.
I expect Nketiah, Nelson, Partey, Elneny and Cedric to leave.
Maybe Ramsdale and Smith-Rowe if the right amount of money comes along with it.

Looks like Villa started holidays after Tuesday's CL news.....and who can blame them I suppose. Palace have been in red hot form , so would have been tough even with full team and max effort.

Going to be a very interesting transfer window for many clubs. FFP will continue to keep the Big 6 in place, as even though we have CL spot, we will have to offload players, and possibly big name to make sure we are inline with PSR/FFP.

Ridiculous situation that you make CL, but can't throw money at the squad (owners have plenty too), due to these "rules" ,but Manu/Chelsea who finished below and Manu out of Europe will no doubt spend 100's of Millions

Didn't watch today's matches. Not surprised at the result.

Men in Blazers guy said City has never lost when Rodri has played?

Foden has been brilliant this season, BUT Rodri is their most important player

what a farce lol this and the fact that the league has been dominated by cheats is bad for the PL brand makes me think they're getting away with it. I dream of their relegation but it's not gonna happen :(

Was a little surprised by this, as they had a very good finish to the season and he seemed to be getting on top of things.

Personally glad he's gone. His incessant whining and excuses in every press conference was terrible to listen too.

Would be funny to see Man City get relegated next year due to dropped points.

Does the PL have the balls to severely penalize the defending league champion, a team which has won 4 straight, probably going for a record?

Was a great cup. Even though I am happy. Man city should have won 3-1.

I will take these gifts and enjoy my weekend.
