Who do we think will win the title? I'm still sticking to my pre season prediction of Liverpool winning it despite them doing their best recently to screw it up - my gut is telling me there are still some twists to come particularly with Man Utd meeting both Liverpool & Mancheating City over the next month and a bit  |

Well it's City's title to lose now and any flickering hopes Tottenham had are dead and buried. They were fortunate to get a point in the north London derby, Kane was clearly offside when he was fouled for the penalty and the Arsenal penalty should have been retaken because of encroachment by Vertongen, VAR can't come soon enough.

Cheers for sticking up for my team and well done for beating the old enemy 2-0 the other night, can't wait for VAR which should see Spurs drop down the table and see Man City brought back down to earth seeing as they get preferential treatment over everyone else. It's amazing how no action is taken against Kane for pushing his head into David Luiz face - usually a red card offence, we can't punish England's great hope  |

Very poor from the officials on both penalty's and I agree that Kane was lucky to escape punishment for the David Luiz incident. |

Congratulations Man City on winning a second successive Premier League title. Commiserations Liverpool fans but you do have the Champions League final to look forward to. It has been an incredible season

What a season it has been. Man City have got there hands on the title. Congratulations to them, fully deserved in my opinion although credit to Liverpool for pushing them all the way. The stand out score line for me is Manchester United losing 0-2 at home to Cardiff City, the wheel has well and truly come off since Ole got the job full time. Take nothing away from Cardiff though who I think are very unfortunate to be relegated. |

I wish them good luck for next season in the Championship and hope they return to the Premier League soon |

Commiserations to Liverpool, they thoroughly deserved to win the league IMO especially considering they lost just once and have now gone two seasons unbeaten at home - a great club with real fans & history. Hopefully, they'll pick up the Champions League and make it 6. As for my lot, lets lift that Europa League and turn a satisfactory season into a good one by winning a trophy and securing a place back in the Champions League.
Sad to see Huddersfield & Fulham, not fussed about Cardiff TBH. Looking forward to watching Norwich though next season - they play exhilarating football and hopefully Leeds join them via the playoffs with their own brand of excellent football

Such a shame to see Huddersfield go down especially now that I live there for half of the year. The only chance of me seeing a Chelsea match there next season is if they draw Huddersfield away in the Carabao Cup or FA Cup. Leeds however would be a good replacement for Huddersfield. |

Brighton owners must be Liverpool fans 😂 I’m surprised by this decision. I know that they have had a bad run once their survival status was confirmed, but this seems a little harsh. Interesting to read the comments from Brighton fans on the article. They seem to wish him all the best, but don’t seem to disagree with his sacking. The outrage seems to be from other fans. It could be down to the style of football as fans want to be entertained. Then again look at Fulham and Huddersfield who came into the league playing attractive football and went down. If the new manager gets Brighton playing more exciting football and can keep them up I think the fans would be happy. Anyhow, I’m surprised that OGS is still in the job. Seems like the decision to make his appointment permanent before the end of the season was a little hasty. If Ed Woodward wanted a blueprint on how to handle the situation, he had one ready made with Roberto DiMatteo at Chelsea. Perhaps he should take another look at Chelsea’s playbook and look at who they appointed on an interim basis when things went sour with DiMatteo. |

I've been speaking to a friend of mine who is a Brighton season ticket holder and he certainly agrees with the sacking although it's tinged with a bit of sadness as Chris is a nice bloke. I think the FA Cup run did them no favours and I think it was 3 wins out of 23 and only just escaped relegation. It's amazing how Man Utd fortunes have changed since OGS was made permanent manger, I can't help feeling he's a bit out of his depth. |

Brighton must be careful for what they wish for - Hughton kept them safe and got them to a FA Cup semi final. Realistically, what else were they really expecting? Absolutely moronic decision to sack someone who has taken them from the bottom regions of the Championship to two back to back seasons in the Premier League. Fans need to remember what happened to Stoke when they switched to attractive football - Huddersfields problem was more the quality of their squad wasn't up to it rather than their style of football. Burnley show why sticking by a manager is the correct way to build and improve a club. As for Utd, they should of swiped Pochettino from Spurs regardless of his cost - they like throwing money at the problem after all so it's only second nature to them except he could of been a good fit. Never mind, the last couple of months has given me laughs a minute lol. |
