Nike…Pep inherited a good team but not a great team. Half the team moved on.The buys were mostly good value, a few mistakes but, hey-ho, where is Mr Perfect?

OK. Nine….the wrong shade of blue for you this season but we need Chelsea challenging stronger next season. Hope you are on the mend and having a chuckle on recent events and posts, some are funnier than Morecambe and Wise!!!! Get well soon and back to us

Pundits….it is necessary for them to be idiots to make a headline for whoever is paying them
That is my description, 3/4 of them around a table for a game I am watching, why do we need so many? They get paid a lot of money for an opinion and that is all it is and generally without value
The media just write a headline that will shock…..somebody…they hope, enough of them, to buy the chip paper

Blueson…not for me, if I am honest….First Villa goal..bad defensive play, same for second, at that moment and into the second half my head dropped, Gundogan came on, who I thought should have been on from the start, changed the game and as soon as we scored the first, then, I knew we would win. Villa not great at the back , took us too long to work it out though. happy days!!!!!

Tower. it has been a great finish for the EPL. Before the game I would have had Gungdogan on and Fernandinho would have been a Sub. game over, look forward to next season now as Champions again but Liverpool deserve great credit for there effort.

Appreciate your comments Nike and Sean but the game is not over yet. Saw the fat lady walking down the street but she was walking the wrong way!!!!!! We have lost three games with those players you mention on the pitch and drawn too many for my liking, The Draws being the worst. We should win but a goalkeeper playing the game of his life, a red card, another injury etc that is why it is not over for me. I think Villa will give us a tough match but if we do not win, it is our fault nobody else and I will not be looking for excuses. I will be interested to see if he plays Grealish from the start, he is improving and I do not think he has had a bad game just not a price tag game but getting closer. The player for me to do it will be Gungdogan .For Villa we just have to close out Coutinho I would also like to see Fernandinho on the pitch for his last match, brilliant player for us over the years Ake and Laporte as CBs to day

That’s it Nike, like I have always said…enjoy the game not the occasion. It has been a good season for both our clubs and I am already looking forward to next season, God willing!!!

Mikus…I can see the logic in that but a bit unfair on Leeds, Everton. I cannot believe Everton are in this position, I had backed them at the start of the season for a top 6 finish…I am hopeless at predictions but wish them best of luck. Been there , experienced that!!!!

It took me a long time to get over the QPR match, I was there, which went from despair to elation. I am not sure my heart could stand it again and may not even watch or listen until its over!!!!!! Unusual for me, I am generally very passive but this has been an extraordinary season for both teams, we may finish with nothing but playing well most of the time. I have to believe that City can do it but they need early goals, not just one either. In such games even 2-0 is never enough

My point about other teams was without them we would not have a league and to be top would be “top of what” They all contributed

Thanks for good response Nike. All we want now for both sets of fans is a good game, good Ref, No VAR,no cards no injuries for last game. Whatever happens, I hope you smash Real Madrid

Nike…same could be said about Wolves scoring to quieten Anfield. The fact is they are both winnable matches but I suspect Villa will try just that bit harder than Wolves. I do not think nerves will play a part because all players are well experienced in these kinds of situations, thank goodness penalties are not involved in the end game. Whoever wins deserve it, for me, it is not a case of wishing City winning because of Liverpool loosing…that is the reality of the score line. I want City to win because they have more points, be it one or 2/3 etc makes no difference. We have finished one point off before so we know how that feels but you just move on and look forward to next season. The one thing both teams can be proud of is the way they have played football and entertained. Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal Wesst Ham have all entertained but just need consistency.I also think teams at the bottom have also had short periods of playing really good football, in my view it is a strong league. The league does need a mixture of styles though or it would become a bore to watch and I think we are a long way from that. I also, as a fan, appreciation must be acknowledged more to team trying to maintain a standard but do not have resources of the few. The differences in spending between top clubs isdoes not compare to the spending of the the lower clubs. City, Utd, Liverpool Chelsea fans may argue about wealth but have no idea of what it is like to exist down the leagues, although in City’s defence, they have had this experience and older fans like me the memories are still clear, the new generation of City fans do not know this. Sorry for the ramble Nike…just putting a few discussion points down

Nike…do not worry, I think Southampton have only won 9 matches all season and you should breeze past Wolves at Anfield. The only question is…will it be enough? We will know soon enough.

Good post Mikus. You only have to look at some of the countries who are so called Republic…I would not want us to be like that. The US President probably cost more than the whole Monarchy!!! However, I do think the Monarchy does need to keep up with times and certainly dispense with most of the “hanger-ons” and Courtiers, self serving people. When I served in the RAF I was proud to serve Queen and Country, although it was King the year I joined. If we had to go to war to day I would hate to think of the Woke Warriors in uniform

Giblues…I will not be there in person this time, you are right, once in a lifetime is all my heart could stand!!!! I am confident we can do it though, they key thing is get early goals plus Liverpool could also drop points, do not think so but it is possible, it would have to be Southampton though playing there best because cannot see Wolves winning at Anfield. Whatever happens, I think we have played well enough this season and have entertained most games. I think we will improve again next season

The last game of the season next week against Villa will be some match. The excitement about this game far me, outweighs anything the CL can offer, in my opinion. British teams in the best league of the world and you have to be good to win it, whoever it is I have always considered the CL Cup as a Vanity Cup, the EPL and FA Cup are far more important. The Europeans look forward to it because there is not that much excitement in there own leagues and I am sure Players of British teams would like the medal for there collection but to go through the 38 league games and the rounds on the FA Cup where they also have to face potential giant killing games is where, for me, the excitement and value to fans are. I do hope we never see Super league though, because it would destroy our foundations of supporting leagues.
