So should be a cracking last day. Fully expect City to get the necessary win. But as an Arsenal supporter I’m constantly switching between an inevitable City win and it’s football so you never know.

But it’s been a great season and we’ve come a long way since Arteta took over. Future looking bright as we’re a young side that will only get better

Foden best player in the league.

Said last season that it was Arsenal's best chance and they bottled it... AFTV will be funny again after another trophy less season.
City will no doubt go on to win the double again

Alternatively, the best team oil money can buy. That's why I follow rugby.

To be fair, Man City win the title all the time, Klopp only leaves Liverpool once presumably! 😂😂

Didn’t actually bottle it though, beaten by a better more experienced team, no shame in that.

I’m assuming that you then agree that L’pool also bottled it all those years they finished runners up to City.

I might be wrong, but I think Coggie meant that Arsenal bottled it last season, I think the pressure last season got too much - this season they were under less pressure because this year as it got to the ‘business end’ it was more City’s to lose, and Arsenal lasted well right through tothe final day - but Man City once De Bruyne came back have been excellent - yes it certainly appears that they have broken rules to get there, but they are a joy to watch and I agree with how good Phil Foden is - in my eyes there is no one anywhere better than him right now and I really hope he can show that it the Euros 👍

I really cannot see how they ‘bottled it’ given that they took 18 points out of a possible last 18.
In the last 18 league games, they dropped just 5 points, 2 of them in a draw with City and thus, that day, City dropped two as well.

They were simply beaten to it by the best Premier side since the inception of the Premier League, by ‘fair’ means or otherwise.

Arsenal have had a magnificent season to even be in contention on the last day.
No sign of Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs etc. ‘Bottlers’ they most certainly are not.

Congrats to the Villa and a superb fourth.
