Ajax pretty much won the league today. Beat Utrecht 4-1 and PSV lost to AZ 1-0. So to somehow lose the league they'd have to lose to De Graafschap in the last match by about 10-0 and PSV win their match 5-0 (or anything else to flip a 14 goal advantage).

So despite losing that awful match, still the most successful year since the 90s by quite a big margin. They won the double under Frank de Boer, but failed hopelessly in Europe those years.

18-0-1 for the 2nd half of the season, Rafa should probably get the coach of the year for beating this city team.
I hope Liverpool don't regress next year, it is borderline unfair that this wasn't enough for the title.

Chelsea got 3rd im happy :D

We played a weakened team due to injuries/tiredness so that wasn't to bad because i think next season Leicester will be a real tough game under Rodgers. So i am happy there.

City and Scouse duel ends with City on top, next season going to be madness. Good luck to Yanited though boy oh boy they are going to need some help.

Also Utd: City Pl champion, Spurs and Liverpool CL final, Chelsea and Arsenal EL final - Utd lose to Cardiff at home XDDDDDDDDDDDDD
If Utd can seriously sell Pogba for good money they are the winners of the transfer window

Somehow the double doesn't feel so good though. Missing out on the finals still hurts.

I think that Liverpool will regress marginally, but I think Man City will probably stay as good or probably get even better.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if the EPL goes the way of other leagues and City starts running away with the title for several years in a row.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

why would/should Liverpool regress? If anything city will regress because Kompany/Aguero get older and their motivation after two titles in a row is lower

Liverpools team is fricking young

I doubt they will play as consistent next season and teams will be a bit more cautious vs them

City won't let up, 90+ points next season to be champion

Only Kompany/Fernandino/D.Silva are considered older for City I think. Aguero has at least another 1-2 good years left and the City team is pretty young as well. They will keep spending to remain on top while I'm not sure Liverpool will get that privilege. They only got Allison and VVD because of the Coutinho money.

because 97 points is the 3rd best season in pl history and it is insane to expect to improve on almost perfect. the luck with offside goals alone cannot be repeated because of var introduction

I'll glady take bets with anyone saying liverpool regressing and city playing the same consistency neyt season. It just wouldnt make sense. You need big motivation to win leagues and city players are all satisfied with Pl now. They will rather focus on CL. Liverpool on the other hand improved greatly afzer their shock defeat against city and became the strongest team in the world after that

You could have said exactly the same thing last year and you would have been wrong then, too.

The only problem I see with Liveroool is their depth. City's bench I feel is just as good as their starting 11, which is pretty much unheard of. Liverpool need at least 2 more top offensive players and possibly another defender to be able to compete with that I think.

This is so wrong, if anything players would be extra motivated to keep their title and create a legacy for themselves like what SAF teams did. You think Rooney Giggs Scholes were like "oh 2 titles is enough let's focus on CL now?"
