 Welcome to the Premier League show here on Toffy TV. It's hotten up at the top in the race for the Premier League. Liverpool and City both in action on Saturday. Liverpool was the early game. It looked a tricky one on paper. Newcastle have been doing well of late. Liverpool have been doing well of being at Champions League and stuff like that. But went there and won by a single goal. Some people thought it was a foul by James Milner. But when you watch that again he got the ball first. Liverpool won the game with Naby Keitha goal. And then later on Manchester City went to Leeds and again some people have said this is a real tough game for City and they blew them away with a 4-0 win to keep it really tight at the top. There's been a lot of talk obviously because it's these two again and obviously the Champions League and all of that. Recording this before City played a second leg of the Champions League at Real Madrid. And there's been talk about whether Pep Guardiola needs to win the Champions League for people to really say that he's been a success in England. I find bizarre because he's sitting being unbelievable since he's been here. That discussion has took place on this week's last fan stand. So have a look at that. By his own high standards, Pep's mortified that he's not won the Champions League and I think he's actually deep down really gutted that the fans don't care. I think he loves the Champions League. I was at the manager's award a few years ago and he had their four trophies or whatever but he had the European Cup and there was a real feeling of like that's the trophy that he's missed out on. He loves the European Cup. He knows that that's the one. That's how you cement yourself as a true managerial great. You can be a great at a club and you can be good in a domestic league but if you want to be counters the all-time great then you need to try and rack up major European honours and so by his own high standards if he doesn't deliver it at his time at Man City then he will feel as though he's failed and he should do. That's what Paul thinks about the situation with Guardiola. What are your views on it? I think he's been fantastic since he came here. He'll want that one won. He's obviously got a couple of bars along there. Never got one of Bayern Munich which I think probably pained them. He'll want one at Man City and I think Man City need that Champions League to confirm or to put them in that upper echel I think you've got to if you want to be classed as one of the top clubs I think you do need that Champions League I think you do need to be able to say that you've done it when the clubs are at highest and it's where Manchester City are right now so obviously the best period of their history and you know we've seen that with Chelsea Chelsea you know for a very long time we looked upon as the upstarts you know the new money and that kind of thing and they've won a couple of Champions Leagues now obviously the reigning holders and when they got that first one I think it just said to everybody that they were they did mean business they were there to stick around they were going to be in the Champions League every year it's something that I think you look at them like Arsenal I think you see the difference Arsenal had that spell under Arsenal venga and never got the Champions League obviously Arsenal would have beat them I think then obviously they've dripped it out to Champions League competition they're trying to get back in it this season but by not winning that Champions League they're never ever classed as just one of those proper upper echelon teams where Chelsea are and I just think that Pep Guardiola obviously has had all the resources has got a fantastic team beaten finalist last year they have to go and get it and maybe you know maybe the fact that they have been beaten in a final is that little thing and we've seen this with Paris on German as well these new teams, this new money you're just not given that you're not part of the royalty of European football without winning one so for Pep Guardiola the pressure is on him and I don't think he'll ever feel like he's quite fulfilled the potential of Manchester City until he gets one until he gets a Champions League but he's lost he's lost with Dortmund and he's lost the first one with Liverpool did nobody shed in that Real Madrid one even though they hate it kind of give them that experience to when they got there again to go one better next time do you think Manchester City can take that from getting there last year because obviously each year under Pep they've kind of gone a little bit further it is all about it's all about experience it's all about being there year after year again go back to what I said about Arsenal we're in it for 20 years but I only ever got to one final for a club that had been winning Premier League you'd expect a lot more you look at Manchester City and they got three three finals I think under Sir Alex didn't he and I think they won two with them so their ratio was one one lost two didn't he no one two lost lost the Barcelona twice beat Chelsea and obviously beat Bayern Munich so I forgot a four and that shows you know the winter you lose to that's not you know if you're a that's that's you know you look at you look at Liverpool they got people by Real Madrid and then bounce back against Spades and money you know a couple of years on the day again so that's the levels you have to get to Manchester City you have to have to be in there and you know if Pep if Pep never gets one then he'll probably think himself he's a failure because his standards are so high he's done I mean he has done domestically he's done unbelievable with City brilliant he won the league most he is the one FA cup league cups but but then you have to start judging yourself don't you at that higher level you have to say well for Manchester City and Liverpool at the moment they're so good there's basically nothing between them in the last few years so it can be the it's it's thick as a piece of paper between them so if you're going to define yourself as a club you've got to look past the Premier League and look at you know because look at someone like Bayern Munich they win their league every year but they've only won like one Champions League in God knows how long so for Manchester City and Liverpool they're always going to be battling out so it will be for the next few years so I'll define themselves if that next level is the Champions League and that's what Pep Guard has got to do with me this year please I mean obviously Liverpool are there in City tough game at Real Madrid but I think City can go there and win he got four at Leeds like I said at the weekend Rodriachy Gabriel Hussius and Fernandinho they've been tough now both of them have tough looking games on paper Liverpool have got spares I look at like I think Manchester City have got to go to West Ham but who knows could it be that when we get to the FA Cup weekend with Liverpool not playing will that be the weekend sort of where they get that little bit of City get that little bit of daylight because of it and Liverpool playing catch they're going to be interested I think that I can see both of them winning every game to be honest to the end of the season but that again if it went like that we'll put a point between them again which shows you the excellence of the two of them both phenomenal the boats went the what Liverpool 16 points at Edith Chelsea City 17 points at Edith Chelsea phenomenal they're just brilliant aren't they so yeah it'll be interesting I mean will can he can he take a bit of revenge from losing obviously the FA Cup semi to Liverpool have them in the Champions League final he wouldn't care less if he I don't think he did care less we wanted that little bit extra a costume on the day but of course he's thinking about the bigger picture and the bigger picture is the Premier League and Champions League and we'll see what happens very interesting yeah so them two remain at the top just a point between them which is incredible at the other end obviously the relegation battle is still going on still keying on Saturday Norwich City were relegated they lost 2-0 last in Ville don't know right for a while but Ville made the breakthrough Wally Watkins just before our time and then it wasn't until Danny Ings in injury time give them the win some Norwich were relegated Burnley watched an hour edition Wofford went on top Burnley were much better second half and they ended up scoring twice in the last 7 minutes to win the game and give themselves a huge huge boost in the relegation battle and put themselves 5 points ahead of Evan and Wofford were basically relegated with that defeat even though it wasn't mathematically at the moment it wasn't losing the home to Burnley with tough games to come they had gone as well but Burnley had been unbelievable really having these shacks on dice after Norwich beat them it all seemed a bit rushed the way it was and Mike Jackson has come in and they've had 3 wins in a draw 10 points and 12 unbelievable when you looked at them they didn't look like they had that in them sadly they did unbelievable no, they have done incredibly well to come from behind at the weekend 7 cents a mid scorn as well kept going obviously they knew the need of it and they've got themselves they've got them and they'll be flying with confidence they'll be thinking they can win every single game so it's done unbelievable well when a lot of people at Burnley fans thought that was it where it's fans looked at it and went oh god because you just think that changed that could be the thing it's put them in a really good position lots of confidence playing a slightly different way and yeah they're getting the reward so it's not great for us but they're doing what they have to do and they're in the box seat they've got to ask them willer a home this weekend if Burnley were to win they'd be three points behind Willer and they've got to play them again and they've got to play them again very very interesting obviously on to Sunday Everton then started the day because of Leeds getting beat for now by City Everton started the day five points adrift of both Leeds and Burnley a home to European champions Welsh champions and Julie turned up a huge huge win under pressure not a clean sheet of good enough three in the last four 10 points from 12 from the last four home games so Everton have picked up the pop points on the board as well of Leeds haven't they and we were sat there the other week saying could be like 34 points keeps you up or whatever and Everton are on 32 and there's no chance 34 is keeping you up I don't know why we thought that because every year you just don't expect towards the end of the season when the pressure is on them to win and they've got to find something while other teams haven't got something to play for we mentioned that last week talking about the teams in the middle of the table not having something to play for and Everton's needs was more than Chelsea's and even though Chelsea did all right and had chances obviously and Jordan picked my great saves haven't got the breakthrough and managed with the help of the crowd and players giving absolutely everything managed to get the three points Everton just have to keep that going but the likes of Bay and Neill keep that going we've mentioned the Leeds game with Manchester City that dragged Leeds right back into it both obviously Bay and Leeds and I've got two points above Everton but I've obviously got the game in hand so it really is looking like it's going to come down to the wire which I'm not sure physically how much I can take of that but it really does look like again it's very much like the top it's you know it's who makes that mistake and I know there's probably more mistakes will be made obviously by Bay and the Leeds in Everton but it really is getting down to the wire Everton's win basically relegated mewn Wofford 12 points behind Leeds and Burnley and I've got a waste goal difference 20 goals wasted Burnley 4 Wofford of relegated 10 points behind so they'll go this weekend obviously if Palace get the result and that'll be interesting going into the Everton game because there's one or the other isn't it you're either free and you play well or you're down and you're not arston you end up losing hopefully it's the latter for us dead interesting Brentford and Shaltanton on 40 points Everton have got two games in hand on them and they looked way out of sight and I'm not saying they're not out of sight but there's been some discussion about Shaltanton because they've got three games left they will lose because Liverpool I expect to win every game and they're away at Brentford at the weekend and they go to Leicester last day that's interesting isn't it and when they were purely safe the other because they were on a brilliant run they might just benefit from if Leicester get to the conference but that's the last game you always want to win that last on but if you've got it no that's interesting but Sunday so Chelsea there in third place I've still got that buffer but we then saw Spairs were playing Leicester at the same time Spairs beat Leicester 3-1 Kane and Sun, what a surprise when a clip we talked about them last week because Spairs had had a couple of games that they hadn't been able to score come back at the weekend and obviously they were back on form and they got the goals in the attitude and obviously Leicester was a played Roman on the Thursday they were all right Leicester but Spairs put their chances away Leicester had nothing for them Leicester had 61% no that's what I'm saying they played the way they normally play but when it's a case of when you play against Leicester which you haven't found this weekend they probably whatever team they put out you just have to take your time and take your chances when they come along so they won 3-1 Spairs to put them back above Arsenal by a point and then Arsenal went to West Ham in what looked a real tough game but West Ham were very much in a similar position but they were in a similar position they had obviously the game they had lost their home had me in the first leg but even so Arsenal took the lead Rob Holding, Jared Bowman equalised on half time and it was Gabrielle with the winner there was a bit of a moment down in this one I thought it was a very contentious moment because I think he was booked for diving the West Ham Fabianski had come out he gets out of it's a funny one this because Bowman gets done for diving but if Bowman doesn't get out sorry, Ramstail Ramstail flies out Ramstail comes out but if Bowman doesn't get out of the way of him Ramstail bakes his leg it's like a straight leg I just found there a very interesting moment about how referees understand the game again if you watch it if Bowman doesn't get out of the way of Ramstail he's going to break his leg so how it's a Diving to avoid contract not diving to win a penalty but if you watch it if Ramstail touches him he's going to really say that he hates him Bowman gets up and says what did you want me to do and I find I just thought with all the stuff that's gone on obviously Anthony Gordon and stuff I thought it was a very interesting moment in the game could be hugely pivotal because we've seen this before where people have been done for files where there hasn't been contact but if you haven't got out of the way you're the brokers there I just thought it was a very interesting moment in how sometimes football is perceived and how diving is perceived and when things are in the media and referees are like I've got to watch their shoulders because last week someone gave a yellow card for diving and this week I just thought that was a very interesting moment because as I say Ramstail could have broke his leg so big moments in the game big win for Arsenal West Ham had more possession Arsenal had more shots and back third and the interesting thing is if you're going to question me I'm going to question you I was going to say the interesting thing is with Everton beating Chelsea there's only three points between Arsenal and Chelsea well it's a big weekend because obviously Arsenal have got leads and Spades have got Liverpool away Liverpool need to win Chelsea have got Wolves at home I'm not being funny Wolves have got the flip so far on the beach and the manager said last week he said I'm glad the fans booed him obviously Wolves played Wolves got the three in the line three in the line by Brighton in a matthewan Brighton don't score goals and he missed the penalty Brighton as well he missed one on that thing and then scored and the the fans deserved to booed him and he was glad he did because he was so bad so they've got the flipflops on and Arsenal they've got their place that would be very interesting they scored 34 goals and 34 games Wolves we always knew that it was always going to be they don't score many goals it was always going to be the fact they were going to keep the clean sheets in the last few weeks they got beat by Burnley and then the weekend so it's madder isn't it Brighton a ninth won one more game in Everton it's those defeats when you look through Everton have won the shame on the games of Crystal Palace Sheldampton won more than Burnley leads Warford Norwich and obviously the weekend was capped off by Manchester United playing Bremford but we didn't drop our Palace Palace won 3-1 at Sheldampton which is poor Sheldampton a little bit of a predicament we were winning 1-0 with Romayou against Burnley made sure he scored this one for an hour and then as he equalised on the hour on Wolves are hard to give Palace a good good away win they've had a little slow down a little bit of late that sucked them to 41 points they needed that win especially with Burnley winning and with obviously Everton winning because there would have only been 4 points with them they won 9 games it's against the defeats 14 draws through 11 Palace that's what it is and then you're right on Monday night was Manchester United's final home game it seems like we've got loads left loads of games left and they played their final home game because they must have been due to play on Cup Final day or they think they were supposed to play Chelsea on Cup Final day and they took it to last weekend before that so this game was their last home game it was their 36th game this season having to play 33 which is mad 3 games in London United but it was 3 in Elbrino Fernandez Cristiano Ronaldo and Raphael Varan in a 3-0 win Ralph Ragnac's last home game as Manchester United manager Jesse Lingard's brother posted the thing that thing basically saying what a disgrace basically giving his entire football and life to Manchester United and there was absolutely no send-off for him at all that definitely not staying what do you think you're going to castle? 30 isn't he? be perfect for him maybe we're standing on the ground seeing some stuff said he might go abroad got a few offers he might want to try something different maybe maybe he ended up at West Amor in Newcastle 3-0 Brentford you've had a great season 40 points at the moment they will they should be fine we saw him before we're evident two wins and two draws we're going to get them you've got it and it's rather after 40 points but Brentford can put their woes to bed by beating Sheldampton at the weekend and they've also got leads at home last day haven't they had they'll win the next two Brentford will win them but good win for United which it doesn't really do anything does it for them in terms of it just keeps them in the top six West Am six points behind them with the game in hand but I think they don't for Arsenal that can't they basically need United can only get 64 so Arsenal get another point they've got a better goal difference then United can't catch them either it'll be interesting United have lost 10 games this season so the European race I think Wolves three points behind West Am because West Am a lot depends on this week with the West Am get to the final and obviously for them if they get to the final the Europa League can win it they'll get a Champions League place can you see them winning in Frankfurt? I can't but you never know I really think they were going to win in Lyon and they won 3-0 so it's not over by any stretch and obviously we've also got Leicester going for their 6-1-1 and they're going to Rome on Thursday so good luck to them hopefully they get through I'd love them to get through and then play all the kids on Sunday and throw the game, be lovely yeah so we look at the league man city we'll have a look at the league table to finish City, Tot from Liverpool by a single point 83-82 from 34 games Chelsea in third on 66 and because Arsenal now are really breathing down the neck Spears Spears of course do play Arsenal as well let me just say for the league if Spears I think for the best thing for the league would be Spears beating Liverpool and setting up that like Champions League play-off and setting up that Champions League play-off on Thursday I think it is I think so because Liverpool have got, they've already won a trophy they probably don't need another one really they're an FA Cup fan they probably beat Chelsea Liverpool don't need a Champions League or a league title this year don't want to take it, if they do it all this year what's the point you might as well give up football you've completed it haven't you there's no point of even doing it anymore so for Liverpool you've got to have something to aim for so it could be to be honest in that race it could be a pivotal weekend because I expect Arsenal to beat Leeds because I think they'll be looking to hammer home this thing and I expect Liverpool to beat Spears so by Sunday it could be a 5 point gap with three games to play so Spears Arsenal on the Thursday it'd be huge that, huge game so Spears are going to have to go to Manfield and hope that concierge on it because they've got a worse record than ever that Manfield's talking about it's terrible so concierge the clock can we help Foxham we'll see so dead interesting still stuff still with a few games left so there you go let us know what you think in the comments section below who's going to win it, who's going down what about Pep Guardiola what's your views on him, would he be seen as a I wouldn't say failure because he's delivered so many trophies but would it be like he hasn't actually put it best before has he not fulfilled his potential if City don't win a Champions League let us know what you think check out the rest of the last fan standing video in the description go over there give it a like, give it a comment make sure you subscribe to us thanks for watching we'll see you next week
