It’s not 1995 or 2012. It’s much more like 2010 or 2014, where the two key fixtures are viewed as formalities. Does anyone doubt that Manchester City will just beat West Ham United, as they indeed did in 2014, or that Arsenal will beat Everton. There are wider issues that we have covered in a bigger piece. This isn’t to say this will certainly happen, of course, but we can only go with the [probabilities and likelihood](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0TqaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvdG90dGVuaGFtLW1hbi1jaXR5LXNjb3JlLXJlc3VsdC1lcmxpbmctaGFhbGFuZC1iMjU0NDk2Ni5odG1sP2xpZD1mdWY4bGlldTNld3YmdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1SZWFkaW5nIHRoZSBHYW1lIE5ld3NsZXR0ZXIgMTctMDUtMjAyNCZ1dG1fdGVybT1JTkRfRm9vdGJhbGxfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZkbeQEdmKF9viFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj). Any drama is ultimately dependent on West Ham defiance. That is of course possible, but the very fact that David Moyes is leaving because the team isn’t performing in the diligent way it used is an indication of how unlikely that is. Certainly, a West Ham result would be a far greater surprise than the 1-1 draw they got against Manchester United on the final day of the 1994-95 season. If the day goes as expected, it will mean City winning a record fourth successive title and sixth in seven years, but while the Premier League investigation is ongoing. That of course comes on the back of a season that has already seen points deductions for two other clubs. It has fostered some concern within the Premier League about whether this is all damaging the competition’s gleaming image, especially as regards the idea anyone can beat anyone on any given day. The Premier League could do with that selling point being true on Sunday, if only for a short time to offer some drama.

It means the main drama from this season might well come after it ends, and have a profound effect on the playing of the game next term. Except, as it stands, that proposal looks to have a slim chance of success. The Premier League Board do not believe this is the right way forward, and are making that view clear. The strong feeling remains that getting rid of VAR would just [bring more problems and controversy](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0T5aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvaGFycnktbWFndWlyZS1wcmVtaWVyLWxlYWd1ZS1lbmdsYW5kLW1hbmNoZXN0ZXItdW5pdGVkLXdvbHZlcy1iMjU0NjY4Ni5odG1sP2xpZD1vMzYyN3Q3NTV1bGcmdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1SZWFkaW5nIHRoZSBHYW1lIE5ld3NsZXR0ZXIgMTctMDUtMjAyNCZ1dG1fdGVybT1JTkRfRm9vdGJhbGxfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZkbeQEdmKF9viFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj), as there would be more criticism on more incorrect decisions. The question from that is whether 14 clubs will listen, but the current feeling is that everyone just wants the application of VAR improved rather than abolished altogether. The phrase being used is the Premier League is “on a journey” in this regard, and that many of those improvements will come next season. As regards the accuracy, the current claim is that correct decisions have gone up from 82% prior to the introduction of VAR to 96% this season. Push arrives to keep Ten Hag Another week, another round of focus on the future of the Manchester United manager. Thomas Tuchel could yet be ruled out despite now [confirming he'll leave Bayern Munich](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0TpaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvdGhvbWFzLXR1Y2hlbC1iYXllcm4tbXVuaWNoLW1hbmNoZXN0ZXItdW5pdGVkLWIyNTQ2NzU5Lmh0bWw_bGlkPXk1amdrOXZkMm4ydiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9YnJhemUmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPVJlYWRpbmcgdGhlIEdhbWUgTmV3c2xldHRlciAxNy0wNS0yMDI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9Gb290YmFsbF9DRFBXBXNwY2V1QgpmRt5AR2YoX2-IUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAyM~). That comes amid a long-expected push - with two admittedly improved performances - to keep Erik ten Hag. None of this is likely to actually affect INEOS’s thinking, though. The big question is instead how cold they will be, as well as the market. As this newsletter has already written, the chatter about Gareth Southgate doesn’t go away. It’s just difficult to see how it could happen this summer, politically, although INEOS have already indicated they are prepared to wait for the right man. That might yet give Ten Hag another season. It might be the state of the market that saves him rather than the state of the team. Summer window dependent on two main factors Clubs have already started working on their summer plans, but they are both dependent on two major forces on this market. One is the effect of Profit and Sustainability Rules, which have ensured that virtually everyone wants to sell before they can buy. It makes this a buyer’s market, and means this window could be clogged for some time. It is why some more surprising deals could be done as clubs are desperate to make changes - but even that is dependent on someone else selling. The market needs something to release it. That is where Saudi Pro League influence may once again be huge. There is already growing chatter about a series of major bids for big players being prepared. That’s pointed because, while it has been quiet so far, you only have to look at what happened since the last window. Saudi Arabia has won the bid to hosting the 2034 World Cup, which is only going to escalate its investment in football. Expect some excessive bids suddenly coming out of nowhere.   Top football features ~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0TfaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvanVyZ2VuLWtsb3BwLWJlc3QtcGxheWVycy1saXZlcnBvb2wtYjI1MzQ4MjIuaHRtbD9saWQ9N24zN3VlMWJrZXU5JnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX3NvdXJjZT1icmF6ZSZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249UmVhZGluZyB0aGUgR2FtZSBOZXdzbGV0dGVyIDE3LTA1LTIwMjQmdXRtX3Rlcm09SU5EX0Zvb3RiYWxsX0NEUFcFc3BjZXVCCmZG3kBHZihfb4hSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAADIw~~ [Liverpool’s 20 best players under Jurgen Klopp as manager departs Anfield after eight trophies](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0TfaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvanVyZ2VuLWtsb3BwLWJlc3QtcGxheWVycy1saXZlcnBvb2wtYjI1MzQ4MjIuaHRtbD9saWQ9dnIxaG5jeGw4cGw5JnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX3NvdXJjZT1icmF6ZSZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249UmVhZGluZyB0aGUgR2FtZSBOZXdzbGV0dGVyIDE3LTA1LTIwMjQmdXRtX3Rlcm09SU5EX0Zvb3RiYWxsX0NEUFcFc3BjZXVCCmZG3kBHZihfb4hSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAADIw~~) ~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0T1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvc29uLWNoYW5jZS1vcnRlZ2Etc2F2ZS13YXRjaC1ndWFyZGlvbGEtc3B1cnMtY2l0eS1hcnNlbmFsLWIyNTQ1NDAxLmh0bWw_bGlkPTlyNnh6Y2dsbG54MiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9YnJhemUmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPVJlYWRpbmcgdGhlIEdhbWUgTmV3c2xldHRlciAxNy0wNS0yMDI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9Gb290YmFsbF9DRFBXBXNwY2V1QgpmRt5AR2YoX2-IUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAyM~ [Son Heung-min and the agonising moment Arsenal (probably) lost the title](~/AAAHagA~/RgRoKcXeP0T1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvc3BvcnQvZm9vdGJhbGwvc29uLWNoYW5jZS1vcnRlZ2Etc2F2ZS13YXRjaC1ndWFyZGlvbGEtc3B1cnMtY2l0eS1hcnNlbmFsLWIyNTQ1NDAxLmh0bWw_bGlkPXJicWNqcXhtZTg1cCZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9zb3VyY2U9YnJhemUmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPVJlYWRpbmcgdGhlIEdhbWUgTmV3c2xldHRlciAxNy0wNS0yMDI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9Gb290YmFsbF9DRFBXBXNwY2V1QgpmRt5AR2YoX2-IUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAyM~)   Miguel's Dispatches It’s one of those weeks where the build-up is about where to go on Sunday, and what holds the biggest story. There were three main options, and one fall-back. Two are obviously the title race, so Manchester City or Arsenal. Another is Jurgen Klopp’s farewell. The fall-back was Chelsea given the previous doubt about Mauricio Pochettino’s future, but that seems to have calmed. It almost becomes a matter of deduction, dictated by the title race first and foremost. City are likely to win the title, but we’ve seen that so many times now and the manner of victory is probably going to be predictable. Even if it isn’t, it means the deeper emotion is at Arsenal, since this is the first time they’ve been in this situation in 25 years. As such, I’m in North London.   QUOTE OF THE WEEK     “I think the last 48 hours have revealed a fair bit to me… the foundations are fairly fragile, mate.” Ange Postecoglou opens up a world of debate regarding Tottenham Hotspur, and ends what had initially been such a positive season on a note of controversy   Reading the game quiz The Premier League title race has gone to the final day nine times.

Flesch reading score measures how complex a text is. The lower the score, the more difficult the text is to read. The Flesch readability score uses the average length of your sentences (measured by the number of words) and the average number of syllables per word in an equation to calculate the reading ease. Text with a very high Flesch reading ease score (about 100) is straightforward and easy to read, with short sentences and no words of more than two syllables. Usually, a reading ease score of 60-70 is considered acceptable/normal for web copy.
