This was struck with authority!

Classic ManU. No lead is safe.

Holy shit!!!

Cold Fucking Palmer

I don't understand that last goal in terms of how much space he was given.

The announcer was freaking out (in an English way).

Shambolic.

Everton with a further 2 point deduction

I hope that the Quansah goof/ Bruno goal doesn't end up like the "Gerrard Slip" in Liverpool lore. What a disaster.

That was last day of the season, right?

No...3rd to last game.

As brutal as it was, the game the next week was even worse...against Crystal Palace, Liverpool was up 3-0, and managed to give up 2 goals in the last ten minutes to draw 3-3. They finished 2 points behind City.

And Liverpool is in danger of having another Crystal Palace disaster...

3-4 clean chances both ways last 3 min.

And three defensive subs come on at once

Guy whiffed one. And one on zero block. Then palace guy got robbed by possibly the most improbable save I've seen

Looks like the Klopp era is going to end a fizzle rather than a bang

...sigh....

Never change, Gunners.

Maybe the PL will deduct points from City hahahahahahahahaha

Why did I think this year would be any different than the last 20?

I’ve been consciously telling myself they won’t win, but deep down believing they can. I told my daughter and parents weeks ago that the AV game would be a loss, but they came out so strong, I thought they’d walk away with it. I rarely watch the halftime show, but the Robbies had me believing, saying Arsenal were in complete control and had no reason to worry. The past few weeks, Arsenal are wasting way too many chances. Both not finishing and missing the final pass. Just a hair off, but they’ve created so many chances and their defense has been so strong, they were pulling it off.

Cole Palmer is the most English looking bruv since Anthony Gordon.

And he's got a hat trick in 29 minutes.

Holy shit, Cole Palmer. Thank you, City!

And with his 4th goal, he's now tied with Haaland for first in the PL! Nobody would have guessed that anyone on Chelsea would be challenging for that. He's also one assist shy of tying the league lead there as well. Hell of a season for the Brit-looking lad!

Does anyone think that Southgate watched that game and thought "Pickford is our No 1?"...

Symbiotic. Never want to see a kid who won’t crack a CL level team waste years so selling at big money to a mid-table team is best for all parties.

Top pettiness from Chelsea

from the Men In Blazers feed:

That was ugly. The midfield trio of Enzo, Caicedo, and Gallagher has been soft defensively all year. When you pair them with Badiashile in the back, the sieve becomes a gaping wound. I told my son after the last game he played that he should never don a Chelsea shirt again. But then we started him on the road against a league leader. smh.

Gah....

Liverpool has completely fallen apart...

It'll just make the winner in the 37th minute of stoppage time that much sweeter.

Going out with a plopp.

That has to be the biggest win for Everton in a decade.

They had a 4 point win in February.

I think that gives Sheffield United the record for most goals conceded in a 38-game season. On track to hit the century mark!

I’d say this one gets added weight for being a devastating loss for their number one rival.

Too late to put the wheels back on

Liverpool reach agreement with Feyenoord for Slot compensation - sources

Liverpool have moved a step closer to appointing Arne Slot as manager at Anfield after reaching an agreement with Dutch club Feyenoord for the highly rated coach, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Slot, 45, confirmed on Thursday that he was keen to move to Liverpool after being identified as the Premier League team's preferred candidate to replace Jurgen Klopp, who is stepping down at the end of the season after 8½ years in charge.

Sheringham as Liam Gallagher is fucking hilarious.
