“But we know there’s still a job to do. We need at least one point.

With the April sun shining in the UK and very little to play for in the Premier League schedule, that end-of-season vibe is very much here – and we’re here for it. The Wembley turf will surely be looking resplendent for those FA Cup last four clashes between Crystal Palace and Aston Villa, and Manchester City and Nottingham Forest.

Important Events
Howe says the top five battles will be “tight” And Newcastle will be in the “Five Game League” to earn land qualifications for the Champions League next season. His first game back to the dugout will be at Ipswich’s house tomorrow.
Hau has recovered, but says that pneumonia was “difficult.”
Eddie Howe is backing up in front of the media today after a diagnosis of pneumonia and a Newcastle manager wearing a big smile on his face.
He jokes: “Sorry if I cough… I’m not contagious, I’m all good!”
“I’m not 100% in my body, but I’m close to 100%. It’s enough to compete with you guys today. It was a real challenge. You take your health for granted.
Howe thanked the care that NHS staff received and has admitted to their assistant Jason Tindall, admitting that they had received “zero” input to team training in recent days and weeks. He said he was “lifted” by the team’s performance, but he watched it on TV from his hospital bed.
There are more questions for slots to answer He became the 11th different manager to lift the Premier League and the first Dutch ever, and another manager he hits well, as perceived as being low quality for this 2024/25 league season.
“It’s not that difficult to get into the top four or top five. In my opinion, it’s a really difficult league. There were no easy games.
“Other teams outside of Arsenal, City and Liverpool have the money to spend.”
Slots: Liverpool has a great responsibility
Arne Slot is not hooked before this decisive match of Liverpool’s season. He is clearly eager to lift the league title in front of a packed crowd at Anfield.
“I know that the last time this club won the league was during the community,” he said. “That’s why everyone is looking forward to Sunday.
“But we know there’s still work to do. We need at least one point. That’s what we know, and if possible, what we know when we come to the stadium to support us in the best way possible.
Slot warned that Tottenham could surprise his team despite the rather awful form of the Spurs and historically poor record at Anfield.
He added: “We’re just focusing on our next opponent, and it’s Tottenham. So we’re trying to prepare the whole season for the team in the same way. The team can bring the same mentality. We look forward to Sunday’s responsibilities.”
Slots revealed The Liverpool team saw the draw mid-week for Arsenal along with Crystal Palace. These points, dropped by gunners, gave the Reds the opportunity to lift titles in four games this weekend.
That was different. Usually, when you watch a soccer game, you are alone or with family and friends. But we saw it all together.
Before the game, they would have been surprised if the game ended in a draw. But it wasn’t because Crystal Palace again showed what this league was during the game. It was a very good performance from them as a team and there were also some very good individual performances.
Go straight to the Arne slot. Dutchman obviously had his early morning cornflakes as he was already chatting with the press…
