Juve in trouble, Man United breaking records and what does another all-England final mean for European football?
Part 1
Man United turned around a 1-0 Half Time scoreline away to Aston Villa on Sunday to come out 3-1 winners by Full Time. This was the 11th time this season they’ve come from behind to secure a result, making for 31 points earned from losing positions in 2020/21 - smashing the previous record.

Andrew, how can they keep getting away with this?
Part 2
Man United secured top 4 with that win, but they lost out on a £200m deal over 10 years with The Hut Group - yet another consequence of the fallout of the Super League debacle.
Chelsea also announced they are opening up their boardroom to give three seats to Chelsea supporters, however they will not be given voting rights as part of this new agreement.
Juventus lost 3-0 to AC Milan in a huge game in the top 4 race in Italy, which put Juve in fifth with only three games to go. Jose Mourinho was appointed as Roma manager for next season. How?
PSG also drew with Rennes, giving Lille a three point advantage with only two games to go.
Part 3
Manchester City and Chelsea both qualified for the Champions League final last week. This will be City’s first final, and Pep’s first since winning with Barcelona in 2011. Chelsea last reached the final when they won the competition in 2012. It’s a second all-English final in three years. What do all of these things mean?
Part 4
The League title may finally be decided this week as Man United play Leicester and Liverpool on Tuesday and Thursday.
