Final: Liverpool 3, Sheffield United 1
It was actually 1-1 in the 2nd half. Beautiful goals by Mac Allister and Gakpo broke the deadlock and gave the Reds a cushion, respectively.
Liverpool back atop the table.

The best wager of the season has been Arsenal win-to-nil. This is when a team wins with a clean sheet. Been quite profitable for me. Should have blindly played it today but didn't.
Wow, United almost gave the match away again. Idiotic penalty to give the Reds the tie, wow, so foolish and stupid, too obvious a call.
Yep. Didn’t need to occur but Liverpool was the better team. Good thing as a United fan is we may have taken away 2 trophies from them even with this mash unit.
Then the U18’s hammered Liverpool 9-1 yesterday and have been exceptional this year. Leading the whole year with some good talent. They have some weight to get rid of at the senior level, but there is more young talent there than in a little while. Hopefully they keep that young core together. Maybe they can compete in 2-3 years.

Afterwards Klopp said that Arsenal would kill United when they meet. Arsenal got lucky with this result.
Klopp said Arsenal would be United if they play like that and he wasn't wrong as it's true. He also isn't an idiot and why would he say that? Do you think he was just looking to flatter Arsenal there? Like it or not he now needs United's help to win the league.

A dispute over £6.5m in interest payments means Everton could face a third points deduction over financial rule breaches, but probably not till next season

Prem to introduce semi-automated offside
The Premier League has confirmed that it will introduce semi-automated VAR offside technology (SAOT) next season -- but it won't be in place for the start of the campaign in August.

Is SAFD (semi-automated first down) technology far behind? If they can track the exact locations of 29 body points on 22 players in real-time, you'd think that a couple of points on a ball could work (with the possible exception of the Brotherly Shove).Prem to introduce semi-automated offside

Spurs s**t the bed yesterday to Newcastle 4-0, Liverpool’s ship is sinking with a 1-0’loss to Crystal Palace so I’m rooting for the Gooners to take out Villa and go back on top.
Liverpool = bottlers. Now only Man City left to challenge Gooners. I hate Spurs still have to play MC and possibly give the title to Gooners.
Klopp and Artetta got this.....sorry boys....out of the 3 from a United persective...want the gooners, but that is a bad loss at home with that much on the line. I honestly think Artetta winds his teams up to tight in big games.
