I don't believe what I just watched. Incredible. Unbelievable. Just when you thought you've seen everything in this game, this happens.
That eclipses the drama that would have been set up on Sunday if Liverpool had won. That was a historic game, and will be remembered for decades to come.
Palace were good value for their draw though, and Suarez missed an open goal sitter which he blasted over the net.
Now watch Citeh drop points against Villa on Wednesday; you wouldn't bet against it based on this season.
Will write more when I'm back at a keyboard instead of typing on this poxy iPad.
But oh my God. WOW.

Fuck. Ing. Hell.
How you can go 3-0 against a lesser side (no disrespect to Crystal Palace there who have really punched above their weight this season, their fans are top notch) who have nothing to play for, and not pick up 3 points is just phenomenal. What a fuckin season and I'm pretty sure there's a couple more twists yet to come!

I really don't get what all the fuss is about. Okay, the comeback from Crystal Palace was remarkable, and it's sad seeing Suarez & Gerrard cry etc.... But really, I was much more bummed when we lost against Chelsea. That's where we lost the title. Even if we won at Crystal Palace, City still need to drop points. The only difference now is that City needs to lose istead of drawing. I don't see either happening. If they do draw, of course I will be devastated, because than we lost the title in those craze 10 minutes against Crystal Palace. But if City go on and win their 2 games? I'll be kinda glad we lost against Crystal Palace. I'd rather lose the league with a few points between the first en the second than being tied, and lose it due to an inferior GD. So close? I couldn't live with that. But now (if city don't draw/lose) it's fair and square for City.

A collapse of epic proportions - already been dubbed 'Cyrstanbul'. But I agree with BEng, I think the real killer blow was losing against Chelsea. A shame, I was anticipating an epic last day show down, but now everything's going to be pretty much decided before Sunday. Wouldn't have said that a couple of weeks back.

Good one, Roman. LMFAO. I fucking love this. What am I going to do without the Prem banter in the off-season? World Cup? Everything in football seems trivial compared to this! Seriously, I cannot wait. Thankfully, I'm largely impartial because Scotland are never in it so I don't have to put emotional investment in any team, hence I can just sit back and enjoy it. Though I have put £20 on Germany to win.

Though I have put £20 on Germany to win. When I was younger, I'd always plan my summer vacations around the Euros and World Cups - visiting London (where I was born, lest you fuckers forget. Trying to get over there for Grad School this fall, mind) in hope of being there should England win one of the competitions - I wanted so badly to experience the national joy. Suffice it to say, England are shite and have been post-2002 WC. And I can no longer afford the luxury of such vacations every couple years for several reasons. Growing up and being an adult fucking sucks, but there you go. I always follow England in the WC, but I'm more passionate about The Arsenal. You cannot beat the drama and the side stories of a 9 month Prem season - there is no competition, no league, and more significantly, no sport that comes even close.

Chelsea will win the title. City will only pick up 1 point from their remaining games, Liverpool will lose. You heard it here first (And I'm not even a Chelsea fan by the way)

I see Liverpool fans upset by his comments on Suarez all over the internet...but they would have said the same if Suarez was a City player, wouldn't they? That's why we're fans and not football journalists, we're not paid to be objective Anyway I agree with everything he said here, Liverpool has done a great season, but when they got to the crucial point they felt the pressure and failed, plus they need at least a defender and a better midfielder, City has got a better team, mentality and experience (at least in the BPL, not in Europe and that's why they're not that good there IMHO) and they're going to win it, and at the end it will be deserved

Usually I think Noel's opions are pretty spot on, but now I'll have to disagree. No great players? Gerrard, one of the best midfielders? Suarez, currently at least top 5 in the world? Sturridge, the second best attacker of the EPL? Sterling and Coutinho, very promising youngsters? I think Liverpool have about the same number of great players in their main 11. The only thing they're missing is depth. Also, why on earth wouldn't Suarez deserve the "best player" award? He simply was the best this season. And a cheat? Is he going on about the biting incident? OK, that was disgraceful, but it was a year ago. Since then Suarez has redeemed himself and has had a flawless, spectacular season.

Yeah great players, but I think you've noticed they're all offensive players as well, come on, Skrtel? Henderson? Sakho? Even Flanagan isn't that good, but he's young so ok On Suarez I think he deserved it cause at the end he's the assistman and top scoarer of the season, and you can't argue with stats, even thinking Yaya and Hazard were both fantastic too But I think Noel has really changed his mind after the Liverpool-Man City match, and he's referring to diving more than everything IMHO At the end he's talking as a fan, so it's understandable

Skrtel is too much hit and miss, but I wouldn't sell him. Johnson and Sakho aren't that great you're right. Flanagan isn't top either, but he's shown a lot of growth, and you're right, he's still young. He might become a great, perhaps even top player. As for Henderson, I think at the moment he's already a great player, also showing a lot of growth. Agreed, still not "top, top", but I can see him becoming that. If Liverpol deepen their squad, upgrade their defenses, I can see them getting a good result in the Champions league and finishing top 4. But a title? I fear it was "now or never (or at least not in the near future)"

You heard it here first (And I'm not even a Chelsea fan by the way) That would be quite possibly the worst thing to happen to this sport in over two decades. And the fact that it remains a mathematical possibility is incredibly fucked up.

OK, that was disgraceful, but it was a year ago. Since then Suarez has redeemed himself and has had a flawless, spectacular season. Suarez is a cheat, though. He dives more than Cristano Ronaldo ever did. He even got booked for simulation in the Palace match, for Christ's sake. Do you know how hard it is to get carded for diving? Most refs don't do that unless it's so utterly clear. And with Suarez, it usually is. Part of me is glad that Arsene didn't sign him. Wenger takes into account personalities when buying and selling players (something most managers don't do, and I think this is a real positive when it comes to Wenger), and while Suarez is the type of player to win you league titles, he's also the type of player to disrupt the dressing room, and serve suspensions. As a player, Suarez is top class. As an individual, he is a real dickhead and makes the likes of Balotelli look like a saint.

I have no problem with diving - it's strategy and it works.
God bless.
