From a football point of view, which is what we can really talk about, is what does it do for the manager?
What does it do for players?
How much loyalty will there be from people now when you know you're not going to have Champions League for two years?
It's a very difficult situation for Man City and only time will tell how this plays out.
Well, you and I, out of everything that happened in the game, so many things to enjoy.
We actually probably enjoyed Firmino chasing back 50 yards to help his team when he knew there was a situation that was unfolding down the left-hand side.
And that's what sets them apart.
And then he scored at the final.
When you think about the great Liverpool side with Dalglish and Rush and players like that, Kenny Rush used to do that part for the team and that's what he does.
As you said, it's the right word, he's selfless for the team and that's what makes them so special to watch.
And I love what Jurgen Klopp did in that interview, because he almost looked disappointed, didn't he?
He was like, I didn't do this in the first, I didn't do that, but you know what, we had the quality.
Of course it helps when you can bring on the likes of Sadio Mane and he produces a moment of genius, but he knows full well he's going to keep pushing that team.
He's going to keep provoking them.
He wants them to keep being special.
Can they remain unbeaten?
I think they're going to win it so early.
I think with the Invincibles, I remember playing against them when they won the league against us when I was playing for Tottenham.
I think they only had a couple of games to the end of the season.
Liverpool's problem might just be that they've got so much time from winning it, just whether they found tools a bit of wrong, whether they just relaxed that one game and they might just come unstuck.
