[Milan 17,887]

Mata with a free kick cracker winning it for United.

[Laylabelle 9,427]

Shame man u have scored.they'll go level with City.as poor as they've been still can get a champions league place

That and Liverpool winning but hey other results gone well :-D 

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Awesome results and thank you Petr Cech

If only we had sacked Mourinho earlier...

[Milan 17,887]

If Liverpool wins EL both will play in EL I think, assuming one finishes on 4th place.

[Pizy 18,538]

Oh fuck off you fucking lucky Manc cunts! 

The teams above them are so shit that United may actually squeak back up and finish in the top 4. They're bloody awful!

If Liverpool win EL it means only top 3 teams in EPL qualify next year in UCL? Would love to see City and United without UCL.

No, if Leicester, Spurs, Arsenal & City finish in top 4 and one of United/Liverpool win Europa League, then 4 English teams will automatically qualify for UCL group phase and one (4th spot) will play the qualifying play-off.

[Laylabelle 9,427]

Yep level with City.wonder if he'll still get the sack if they do get there.assume so.

I thought last year was the last one it was allowed 5 team in UCL.

Let this sink in....City 10 behind. We know we have been shit but fucking hell, that is quite laughable.

Imagine if we had taken that step up we all wanted and expected heading into this season. We would've pissed this league with ease with last season's Hazard, Matic, Cesc, and Costa from the start.

I really can't wait to be in the title race next season again.

[Tomo 21,741]

The quality of the teams make me even more convinced we will bounce back with a vengeance next season.

Leicester and Tottenham don't have the resources to sustain what they are doing, United and Liverpool need a massive reshuffle and Arsenal are just Arsenal.

We have the peices in place, a solid transfer window and hopefully a strong end to this season to help the momentum for next, I would strongly fancy us to get that title back.

And I thought seasons like 2012 and 2013 were bad..

Agreed. Think the title may be a step too far in our new managers first season with Pep and Mou to compete with (and their infinite budgets) but I definetly think we'll be right amongst them challenging for the league.

Think we'll 100% finish above Spuds and Leicester won't get remotely close to theses heights again.

What happens if we also won the CL? 6 PL teams next season in total?
