Manchester City lose out title – your views

[BBC]

We asked for your views on Manchester City’s failure to stay in the Premier League title race, with their 1-1 draw at Bournemouth crowning Arsenal champions.

Here are some of your comments:

Joe: A disappointment but, as it is a transitional season, we have to be satisfied with the two cup wins. Next Sunday will be a bitter sweet day, saying farewell to Bernie and Johnny and, reportedly Pep too, but let’s remember what a ride it’s been.

Sam: How do you go 15 Premier League games unbeaten and still fail to win the Premier League?

John: City just fell short in the challenge to win the Premier League. The team is in transition and compared with last season I feel we have done well having won the League Cup and the FA Cup and finishing runners up in the Premier League. That said the standard of the Premier League has been the lowest for some time. Perhaps it’s the pre-World Cup that has affected the standard. Congratulations to Arsenal, unlike cup competitions the winners almost always deserve the trophy.

David: The table never lies and Arsenal deserve to be Champions with a game to spare. Man City not quite good enough!

Alan: I watched the game. I think the idea that the manager is leaving got to the players. They looked leggy and not as sharp as usual.
