Now it will be interesting to see how the remaining games play out as Man City was knocked out of the CL tonight while Liverpool made it through to the semi finals along with Tottenham. Man City can now just concentrate on the Premier League while Liverpool have the CL to worry about so its going to be interesting to see how this plays out for the remaining matches in the Premier League. What is everyone's thoughts on this?
I think winning the title in Premier League should be an easy mission for Man City if they remain concentrated. I was thinking they have 2 more hard games coming against Tottenham and United but since they got knocked out by Tottenham today they should definitely kill it when they play again so if they win the match against United tthe 1st place is almost assured for them.

Lately in the Premier League relegated and almost relegated team are winning, I have in mind Everton losing to Fulham and yesterday night Cardiff losing to Brighton.I wonder what is their motivatio. since they are already relegated, maybe players wanting to show their skills so they can find a place in another Premier League team and to avoide playing in the Championship.
I was expecting yesterday for Cardiff to win that game because they played better in the last period but Fullham beating Everton was a really big surprise for me. Those team that are already relegated know that they can't do nothing now so they are playing better because they don't care anymore about the end result. They enjoy the game and take risks, which seems to work well.

Chelsea had absolutely no chance in the game, it wasn't even close by talent, Liverpool had to win to ever have a chance to win it this year (and even with this win its not guaranteed) so Chelsea even though they want to stay in European contention can't really rival the potential champions after all. They have to rely on the fact that in the remaining games either arsenal or man united will lose some points, otherwise its as good as gone for them.
About the City situation, I doubt they will have to sacrifice anything, these people are playing for millions of dollars and the game is just 90 minutes, they should be capable of playing on EPL, CL and FA all at the same time, you might feel tired but for millions of dollars plus a 3 month break at the end of the season they might as well give their all for just couple more games, we are incredibly close to finish line.

Disagree wholeheartedly, Chelsea had 2 clear chances from Hazard. If he capitalized then we would be walking away from the game with some points. There is no amount of money that will make the players capable of playing 90 minutes of high intensity football every three days with little rest and training in between. They don't really get a full holiday, all of them will have international games to play with their nations and even without that they have to train to stay fit for the beginning of the season.

Liverpool keeps EPL alive for them.I think that was a great win against Chelsea.Salah and Mane was superb in the match.Man City will face spurs and ManU in EPL.If they lose or draw any of them, EPL will be on Liverpool hands.I think Liverpool can make it, they will stole the PL title of this season.
Right now Liverpool is in better position instead of City as they have some reasonable matches and City is going with some hard stuff lets see how they handle of going to complete four this season. 
Vital game tonight in the battle to avoid relegation. I think if Cardiff fail to get 3 points then I think relegation becomes a near certainty.
ManC will fight Spurs twice at UCL and EPL This week, both teams must continue to focus on both competitions. and I'm sure ManC and Spurs really want a win from both competition. after those match ManC had been waiting for the manchester Derby (EPL). if in those three matches ManC failed to pick full points I am sure they will fail in both UCL and EPL competitions.
I think they cannot do the quadruple and agree with you. They will have to sacrifice something. If they get knocked out of Champions League this week, then sure, FA Cup and Premier League is theirs, they have a full squad. But believe me, if they reach the semifinals, they will probably meet Juventus so they will do everything they can to progress to their first ever final, and this knowing Pep might cause them to wobble in EPL.
But if they want to pick up max points and win EPL, they will sacrifice CL. Not because they want to, but because they can't do it.
I'm not sure I quite agree with you on this, If Man City make it the next round, they don't need to sacrifice one trophy for another, before the semi finals Man City would have played their toughest games (Man Utd and Tottenham) if they get to win both, they can afford to rest some of their tops players as they have strong second XI, and win their remaining matches as they've done several times this season.

Huge win for arsenal, they are success holding their top 4 position on premier league. Even with 10 players, watford really playing their best on that match and i saw so many chance to make goals, unlucky watford and lucky Arsenal, even with an ugly win, win is a win, good 3 points.
So finally Arsenal got that much-needed rare away win. But they still remain in 4th place one point behind Spurs.
I think the 3rd Place and 4th spot battle will go on to the last day

Bad start for Watford. Arsenal will take advantage of this and may be score few more. If Arsenal can win (which they should) then they will find themselves one step ahead to be in the top four.
Yes, It can't get any better for Arsenal, an early lead and a red card to their opponent. This should be an easy win for them!
Should be like that but Arsenal is so bad in away games that even Watford with 10 men looks very dangerous. They have made few good chances (hit the post and Arsenal goalkeeper just saved a great shot from free kick) and could have already turned the result.

Watford decided to gift Arsenal 3 points today. First their goalkeeper was playing with the ball and gave Arsenal 1 goal lead and then their captain Deeney decided to earn a red card. All inside 10 minutes. If I was in charge of the club both would get heavy fines for unprofessional behavior.

Watford vs Arsenal - What do you think guys? I think Arsenal are desperate for the points because they need to try & get back into the CL. My prediction is Watford 1-3 Arsenal but I’m not betting on it.
I have an acca 3 combining with Arsenal, Real Madrid to win and in another match over 1.5 goals. I do expect Arsenal to win by 0 - 2. Their recent performance is very good comparing to Watford.Liverpool made probably key-win against Chelsea and they put one hand on the PL trophy. The only serious game has against Wolves. City can't win both games against MUTD and Spurs.

Arsenal played very well in the Europa League game against Napoli.
I didn't expect them to play so well and win so easily and what impressed me was the first goal that was scored in the match. I think that Arsenal is not going to lose this match and keep pushing for the position that leads to the Champions League.
Two teams fighting for the top of the premier league standings each managed to win in the big match. It looks like this season's premier league champions will be determined until the last week's match even though Man City is more favored because they still have one more match than their rivals. However, Man City's opponents in the next match were heavier than Liverpool.
