Totally agree i feel happy about it but sad about it at the same time it's a weird feeling if you know what i mean.
So question for you guys did there title win come to early after just 31 games i will say a straight forward NO because they deserve to win the title as soon as possible after waiting 30 years for it even know it was really late in the end because of Coronavirus.
It's a shame they can't lift the title in front of the fans 30 years of waiting and they can't lift it in front of the fans it's sad.
No it didn't come too early, we smashed the league. TBH looking back as soon as we got over 15 points clear and kept it growing it was won, just more of a case of mathematically securing it. I think had the last 3 months not of happened I would have said there would have been an even bigger out pour of emotions, now at least for me its more a feeling of relief we actually did it.
There's going to be an open top bus tour I read at some point, not sure when though. I'm guessing when gatherings can occur.
It was the Leicester away game that ended the race for me. Coming back from Qatar and then just annihilating a very good Leicester team who were in fine form. I think psychologically from a city view it probably made them think, "yeah we can't catch them this time". Game could have ended 7-0 and it wouldn't have flattered liverpool too, probably the best performance of the season.
Setting fire to the Liver Building with fireworks, what a crowd.
^it's a metaphor for the whole season!
I think they can dominate for a few seasons

It will be tough.
Winning is hard, defending is always harder.
Chelsea are making strides with their transfer business, City are always going to be around (transfer/CL ban or not)
I am slightly worried we won't buy much this summer.
Klopp will be out by Christmas curse of winning managers apart from Pep all have been sacked after winning

Yeah the Leicester game is when I pick out that won us it, because it was 3 days after the world club cup and Leicester were the team in 2nd. I was expecting a tough game but we just smashed them. Also I think it was our best performance of the season until Palace. City 3-1 at home broke them, like really broke them. The moment they kinda knew it would be there year. I only really started to believe after we beat Utd 2-0 in January but was convinced by Mid February.
More chance of Pep leaving then there is of Klopp getting sacked.

City had a lot of injuries this year mainly in the defence area if they can get them all back and fit and keep most of the stars which i think they will
United finally getting themselves together and if its true and sancho is on his way there as well they wont be far off esp if they can sort out the defence
then you got teams like Wolves and leicster if they can string a long run of wins and maybe take points of the big boys when they come to town they wont be far off
not sure about Spurs or Arsenal
hopefully my rovers will get up via the playoffs we not that far off with about half a dozen games to go
If I’m honest i’d be surprised if we’ll see a mass change, chelsea and Utd will no doubt improve but to close the gap in 1 summer I can’t see it. Utd and Chelsea are still a few players away from squads/starting 11’s like City or Liverpool’s. Sancho to Utd isn’t what they need IMO, and Chelsea need more than Havertz potentially, Ziyech and Werner. Out of the two of them Chelsea will get closer to challenging than Utd IMO.
