After 4 years of Manchester blue domination, it's good to see a different club win the top league. Although Pool hardly qualify as being a 'new' champ. and they are not quite there yet.

 

The Foxes broke the mould, 9 years ago, as did Rovers* in the third year of the new (then) EPL. Is it time for another breakthrough? There certainly is room for a different club(s) to make their way to the top. This year is done and dusted, IMO. So we must look to the future seasons.

 

The first step is to break top 6. Then top 4. Who can realistically break through? This year Seagulls, Cherries and Forest have surprised. If any one of the three can make Ch Lg for next year it would be a great motivator for others. What others? Well! I like Palace, although they are the epitome of inconsistency; alongside others, I must add. And the sleeping giant, back in the Championship; Peacocks. The Black cats are wealthy enough; but not yet.

 

Since the start of the EPL, 7 clubs have taken the title in 35 years. What about other Leagues? How many  different clubs have won in the same period in Europe?

 

Scotland; 2. Germany; 7. France; 10. Spain; 5. Italy; 6. Portugal; 4. Holland; 5

 

So 7 seems about right.

 

* Title winners in 1912 & 1914 also

A game where players hit the ball with their heads, and practice diving into solid ground instead of water.

 

No wonder so many do stupid things off the field.

Not too keen on the 'Beautiful Game' then bro?

Well that's definitely that then.

Well done to Liverpool. They deserve to win the title.  🏆

Interesting battles for European places now.
