How Pep's plan meant Man City kept the edge over Liverpool - Michael Brown analysis

Manchester City are champions again but clearly this Liverpool team is not going away and will be back to try to take the Premier League title off them next season.

We need to give Liverpool credit for staying in the race until the very end this time, as much as City deserve admiration for holding them off. Both teams' points totals were phenomenal and everyone is looking forward to seeing what they do next.

Graphic showing how, between them since 2017-18, Liverpool and Manchester City have had six of the nine highest points tally in Premier League history.
Liverpool got 97 points in 2018-19 and 92 points this season - but Manchester City beat them to the title by a point on each occasion

There is so little to choose between the two sides that their managers have to keep coming up with new ways of finding an edge.
