I thought we were gonna lift the title right then but apparently we have to wait until the final game. So what exactly happens after the game, we just give a few ovations and that's it?

Didn't no that myself, thought it would be after the match. Checked online and yeah it will be handed on final weekend. So yup looks like just ovations then lol.

Isn’t klopp going to be at our final game?

I think you are forgetting our best player this year and the biggest reason we will win the league and that is Gravenberch. When he got tired we as a team looked tired, after he had a rest in the international break we played better. He doesn’t score or assist but he instantly made our defenders better and allowed the control for the forwards to get chances. I think he should be our player of the season.

I don' think that Gravenberch is any better than Ray Kennedy, Terry Mac, Ian Cally, Jimmy Case or many of the other excellent midfielders we've had in the past.

Slot has devised a new strategy/system which our players have been great in executing, but as individuals are they stand out players? No. The sum of the parts is far greater than the value of the individuals.

The thing with legends is they are not legends when they play, they become legends after they retire. I’m not suggesting that Gravenberch is even on par with them I’m just saying he is our best player this year and a major reason we are going to win the PL.

We won the race 

That was an unbelievable season for Slots first and to end it with number 20 is the stuff of dreams. Didn't think he would do it at the start of the season but ecstatic for him that he did!! Well fookin in Arne!! 

We deserved every bit of this title this year, fook the rest of the club's. We have been fantastic from the get go and grew our confidence with each win. 4 games to spare in the end as well as a top point haul.   

All the lads had a good season but really important for us was Mc Allister and Gravenberch. They had a brilliant season and a big reason we are now champions. Them settling in like that made a big difference. They are our players of the season imo. Mo and Virgil were top drawer. Ali still number one keeper in the world with some excellent saves throughout the season and not forgetting Konate  didn't think he had that many games in him tbh!! The whole squad played their part but these are who I thought really stood up this year.

No question now about who is the most successful English club now     

Fantastic season, we’ve blown the competition away and fully deserve the title of CHAMPIONS!!

Mac Allister Has been brilliant, reminds me of Alonso in his prime. But Mo, Ali and VVD are our spine.

Who knows what will happen in the summer. I think Trent’s gone and a few others will also be moved on.

But let’s enjoy this moment.

I really don’t see the reason to keep mentioning Klopp, he bailed and no doubt had his reasons but he bailed none the less. Just like Klopp built on Rodgers, Slot built on Klopp. It’s a part of football  but the credit is Slot’s and frankly the owners and the sporting director they assigned. It was the same team that got Klopp and Slot was a great addition to the team also. I’m excited to see what gems they can unearth and bring to the team.

Credit should go where it’s deserved and our owners are the ones that have rebuilt this club from the ground up into one of the best and most well run in the world. Slot is one of five managers that won the title in his first year but if you look at the others they were all managing moneybag clubs (Chelsea and City). Slot did it without spending hundreds of millions, his accomplishments far exceed what those mercenaries did.

We got ripped off the last time we won the title by a very strange time that the whole world went through. That will make this celebration all the sweeter and that night last night could well be those players’ best moment of their lives.

Players deserve to be champions.
