And next season...City unlikely to challenge and unless other teams make up the gap its theirs again. Hopefully less of a run away lead though!

Yes most likley its theirs again but it wont as easy. Injuries could mount, teams getting better and hopefuly the FA wont keep giving that vital helping hand every damn game.

Always find a way. Norwich had their chances, so they can only look at themselves.

that fucked up weak pass to Pukki when Pukki was clear around Alisson and letting Alisson swat it back was a bad fluff

And I highly doubt they will allow best players to leave. 

Easier said than done. If City were really to be found guilty of cheating the system and banned from Europe for 2 seasons, would the players really want to continue playing for them, for a club with tarnished reputation? Do the best players really want to waste 2 years of their career not being able to challenge for the Champions League trophy? Plus if City were banned from Europe, they would stand to lose about 300 million across 2 seasons and without that CL money, they would need to cut back on their expenditure on players (e.g. wages, bonuses) as Gab Marcotti explained it here from 8:55 onwards.

5 more wins and league title is done

If I was a Liverpool fan I would have at least liked to have seen some kind of challenge to overcome. It's all been way to easy with them hardly needing to get out of second gear for most of the season.  They'll be Champs with months of meaningless games ahead..zzzzzzz

.

Imho, Liverpool aside, the quality at the top end of the league has been as poor as I can remember.

Totally agree and I mentioned it before but we could quite easily get into a Scottish league scenario where one team dominates or for old geezers like me back to Liverpool in the 70's -80's. Fair play to both clubs and I don't want to sound condescending but Wolves and especially Sheffield United can get promoted and thrive in the league it's part talent and good coaching and part it's a piss poor massively overrated league.

That's it. They're only going to get better where the rest of the league are playing catch up really.
