Last one of the season, matchday 38
Liverpool won their last 9 games and City won their last 14 games. Whereas most of Liverpool's 'difficult' games were dealt with and won in the middle of the season, City had quite a few of theirs towards the end of the season and got the wins required.
And although we had, at one point, 6 teams above the top four line we ended with just the four above it. From next season the points tally for 4th place will be increased by a point and for title form will be moved up by 3 points. Unless the chaff in the Premier League gets significantly more competitive next season it looks a while before the top team in the country needs less than 90 points.
Some shocking dips in form from Spurs, United and Arsenal in the final third. Chelsea, relatively, stable compared to those three.
