Citeh win another title almost by default again - boring and annoying in equal measure - Villa can hopefully push on but think the Shit will be more a formidable proposition under Ratcliffe next season…….Klopp and Arteta serial bottlers - that said, Citeh due some major FFP sanctions surely……. You win the title by finishing top, not default Not been at their usual best but still a great side I know you're right of course - just feels like it's become almost a default run in to.the end.of the season and its somewhat tedious - indeed they ought to be a great side with the money that's been spent- that said I find the style of play mechanical and boring with only a flash of excitement and true flair coming to the fore - it is true that I've fallen out of love with the game in recent years and pine for another Leicester to happen - think it.may never happen again truth be.known

The teams with the best management are winning it. It’s no fluke

It’s no fluke I’d like to believe this is the case but can’t see beyond the Manchesters with Liverpool (who I think will struggle post- Klopp when a few of the remaining stars will also exit) and maybe perennial bottlers Arsenal - Chelsea are in a recovery that may take half a decade or more and Spurs haven’t replaced Kane …. Would love to see Villa continue to compete under Emre ……….or Brighton perhaps - but it will be as you were no doubt and the Leicester thing a once in a lifetime event….

According to their latest accounts Chelsea have spent £3/4 billion on transfers in the last 12 months or so. Presume they are following the Stoke template for a half decade long recovery programme.

Pivotal weekend in the Prem , Man City must be laughing. I'm sure they won't get ahead of themselves - Guardiola won't let them. Although their remaining fixtures look easy, that's probably exactly what Klopp and Arteta felt theirs did today. So what happened to them can happen to Citeh too. I wouldn't mind if it did, couldn't happen to nicer people.

I was a little reticent about Palmer going to the Euros as I’d not seen loads of him (not his better games anyway) but on this form he simply has to be on the plane or boat or whatever environmentally friendly mode of transport they decide to take

Palmer is superb. Cant believe citeh let him go. I didn't think he'd break into the team at Chelsea and thought 40m looked steep. Shows what I know.
3-0 Palmer, with the right peg. He's on the plane.

Do you think he should consider Jordan Henderson instead?

Do you think he should consider Jordan Henderson instead? No but Palmer isn't going to cover Declan Rice role Not sure anyone is Phillips won't be in the squad now and Henderson not doing great at Ajax It's a problem for Southgate as there is no one who plays that role at all anywhere near being in the squad If we had the CB's Stone would be the option but Stones has to play CB upside is think he will take Mainoo and Palmer now instead of Maddison
