Think that's it now and city have done it. Can see them absolutely slamming Man U who are back to looking poor.
Brilliant for Liverpool to take it to the wire and it's been a great journey. Hope we can clinch the champions League as a softener.

I can see City winning all their remaining games - yesterday was the only real hurdle they had to get past. I think Leicester may give them a good scrap though.
Liverpool could slip up against any of the remaining teams...even the last game against Wolves will be really tough, considering how well Wolves have played this season and beaten Liverpool in the FA Cup. Barca will be a really tough match - not being beaten at the Nou Camp would be a great result.
Before this match started, I thought When Will Solskjaer Get The Sack? would make for an amusing thread - virtually every manager gets sacked eventually - but now it seems less of a joke.
Honeymoon period over. Feelgood factor from Jose leaving now gone.
Ole was totally clueless at Cardiff so im not too suprised
Maybe Jose was doing a good good job considering g what he had to work with? Hope utd bounce back against city.
Cannot believe how we played in the last 4 games against the top six Liverpool Chelsea Arsenal Man Utd 10 points and no goals conceded, yet the same players get turned over without a wimper at Fulham. That’s football
Yes, and C Palace next week will be a real test for Silva after the Fulham debacle.
I have to say I thought Solskjær was classy in his post-match interview. Genuinely nice guy.

What a pile of ^}$~!|*].
Man U lost we had huge chance to get into 3rd and he plays a weak team!!!! We have about 5 matches left until the end and need top 4, WTF are you resting people for!
As i have said before on this thread a truly entertaining and interesting end to the season given yesterday’s and today’s results now for me it’s what will we do against Burnley and really looking forward to the Manchester derby.
Targeting winning Europa League?
Arsenal can certainly up their game when needed. Very strong against Spurs. Controlled vs Napoli.
Agree that 3rd/4th in PL would give the comfort, but it seems that the focus is elsewhere, and Dick has previous experience in winning the Europa.
Arsenal's problem will be beating Chelsea in the Europa (Going by the bookies and likely outcomes). Chelsea may pip them to both the PL spot and the cup.
Dam,dam,dam i really thought that Brighton would get the draw we threw away a win against Burnley who i must say did what Burnley do so well.Hopefully City will do the business but maybe United will react to the Everton defeat.
All to play for.
Just back too.
Note to self. Do not go to Brighton games as inevitably they park the bus and make for a dull anti-football match. Ryan started wasting time from the 9th minute.
Spurs need to hit more on target too. 29 shots with 5 on target is poor. Son should have been playing through the middle instead of Llorente. The squad is threadbare with no options to change the game from the bench.
Agree, send the big man on as an impact sub. We can't treat him as the main man for 90 minutes. Harry Kane he is not.
Yes, Janssen could have been started earlier. Even Skipp could have given us something. We lacked directness and Sissoko is a big loss as we missed his running and overlaps.
I wouldn't say he is poor as such .. but he was up against two central defenders who gave nothing away in Duffy and Dunk ... Son should have been played down the middle
It is always difficult to carve out space and chances when you have a team sit so far back and defend for their life .. it was always going to either take a good shot or a lucky bounce somewhere
It was one of the most frustrating games i've watched in a while ... Next 3 should be a little more open
Well, I think we may have to agree to differ... he’s not shown anything of quality that I’ve seen (and I’ve watched every match) and pretty much all his goals have either had an element of luck or have been the result of mistimed deflections off various parts of his body. He always looks like a rabbit caught in the headlights to me.
Anyway, a tough one on Saturday, and West Ham are always well up for it when they play us. Given that Everton will be no pushover on the last day we really need to win it.
Also went last night and couldn't believe how hard we made it top break down Brighton, who fair play came with a game plan and nearly came away with a point.
The 2 CB for brighton I thought was outstanding, just a shame we couldn't get a break much earlier to amke it a more entertaining game. 11 men behind the ball and non stop time waisting from Brighton.
Thought Danny Rose was outstanding again last night, possibly the only stand out performance in a Spurs shirt, hope everyone lifts there game for Saturday. Can't see llorente starting that game.
What a stadium we now have, luckily enough to have a bit of corprate, in the Galvins resturant. Unbelivable.
Apparently 85% of United fans want them to loose tonight. Any points tonight gets them a lot closer to champs football. Would imagine if they do not there will be quite a few leaving united and If De gea goes they will plummet down that league.
Van Dijk wins player of the year and rightly so he's been absolutely superb.
Sterling has had a great season but VVD has transformed Liverpool from a defensive nightmare Into the best defence in the league.
On a recent discussion on a large United forum, way over half of long standing members and match going fans said they’d prefer City to win the league over Liverpool. Their reasons were varied, not many were actually too worried about Liverpool catching the league title record but more the media love in that would follow a Liverpool title.
There won’t be any of that fanfare if City go on to win (which I fully expect they will)
In my experience, there's lots of bitterness and hatred between the 2 clubs, certainly from my era and beyond. Liverpool supporters I know wont be shouting a man u win from the rafters but quietly hoping for at least a draw. If the boot was on the other foot I would want Everton to win over any man u result/title and just to be clear I have many friends who follow the Manchester clubs - should be a good game anyway as stakes are high for both teams, roll on 8 o'clock
C’mon City!
Fantastic performance from Nuno’s boys.
COYW
Good evening for me a CFC supporter just watched the derby not a great game but the right result.
Last night's derby went pretty much as expected.
I expected us to show a hell of a lot more desire than the previous few games, and we did, but ultimately the better team will usually conquer.
And so it was.
What about Silva though? Probably my favourite PL player of the past 4/5 years.
