We didn’t bottle it. What a stupid thing to say! We had a bad spell. Nothing more and what every team goes through. If we bottled those games what did City do against Palace and Leicester? Stupid comment that and shows a lack of understanding.

Bit harsh to say we bottled it.

We'd have won the league I think every other season bar last season.

We've been amazing. Man City have been better. No shame in that.

Never bottled anything. We’ve lost one game all season. 94 possibly 97 points. There isn’t much more you can ask. The fact that mancity can better us is just insane. You have to just hold your hands up and accept it. But if we take home the CL we’ll have won something city, with all of their billions, and all their world class players have yet to even have the chance to get. And we’ll have it 6 times over them.

Maybe not, but to be honest how many of you who is attacking me now were thinking the same thing when we could've gone 7 or even 10 points clear at the time. The last few weeks those same results keep getting mentioned. Also had we dropped down to down to 3rd or 4th at this stage, "bottling" or "couda" "shouda"would've come to mind. This is just my opinion.

At the time, getting draws away at Utd & Everton felt good results, they are our biggest rivals over the years, so getting anything from them is good, we could not have predicted that City and Liverpool would go on the runs where they did not drop points.

94 (probably 97) points is a great season, usually you are winning the PL in April with that total as 2nd place has around 80 points, we have improved and turned round a 25 point deficit, playing some great football, we can now defend!!!! the belief and mental strength of the team to keep going is unbelievable.

This team will only get better, Fabinho looks settled now, Keita should be firing next season, OX & Gomez will be 100%, no doubt we will add some reinforcements over the summer and we have a few young exciting players coming through like Wilson & Brewster, so things are looking great.

An early goal would be good against Wolves, put the pressure on City, Pep has looked worried/stressed the last few games, they have just won games 1-0 with an amazing goal from Kompany that would go in the stand 9 out of 10 times, they had the Aguero goal that just crossed the line, they are not hammering teams like they were, so this not a done deal yet.

City have raised the bar these last 2 seasons. The fact we are talking about bottling it for getting 29 wins, 7 draws & 1 loss from 37 games is delusional. Then you add in how hard it has been with a CL run to The Final.

Prior to 2019 we hadn’t won silverware for 7 years by the end of 2019 we could have:
The European Champions League
The Super Cup
The World Club Championship

And not out the realms of possibility yet...The Premier League

Think about that...

Well whatever it was that caused us to drop those points, we've recovered and made up for it since. If we can get over the heroics and euphoria of liquidating Barca on Tuesday night last, and beat Wolves on Sunday we'll have 97 points, that's amazing, and it'll be unprecedented if we don't win the league with that score. I think we can be proud of our run in the PL this season regardless of the outcome, and we've brought it to the last day and game of the season. I'm delighted with the progress under Klopp, whom I've Ben critical of on occasion, but he's done a wonderful job, as have his brilliant squad of players, hats off to them all. And of course there's the small factor of a second successive Champions league final on 1st June to look forward to as well....it's just been brilliant.
