Tito Villanova, Barcelona manager for their title winning 2012-13 season, died of throat cancer yesterday aged only 45.
Villanova spent years working his way along as an assistant coach at Barca and finally with Pep Guardiola moving to Bayern, he got the top job.
He had only one season in charge. One Spanish championship & Champions Lesgue semi final place last year. But he had to resign for the curtent season due to his health.

Very sad news about Tito Vilanova. It sadly reminds me of what happened to Dean Bailey recently as well! RIP

Sunderland throwing the fight at the bottom up in the air and Southampton (Everton's back 4) giving us some breathing space in the race for the top 4.

Taking into account we've got Liverpool v Chelsea tonight too and it's going to be a massive weekend of Football!

[Jezza]

It's do or die tonight! Chelsea need to win tonight if they're any chance for the title.

My gut says that Liverpool's going to win tonight unfortunately.

[HAL]

Have you told many people about your gut says that Liverpool's going to win?

The Sports Asylum tonight will be another EPL show, http://thesportsasylum.sportsblog.com/post/669984/the_sports_asylum_english_premier.html there's the preview. Should be another good night.

I am worried about Newscastle heading into the final couple of games, also the future with players almost certainly gone at seasons end. Just hope we can keep Krul.

So now the ball is in Man City's court. If they win all three remaining games, then they will be Champs. So come what may the title will go to the last game, and maybe like the unforgettable finish of two years ago, it may go down to the last minute of the last game.
Remaining games of those in the running;
Man City = Everton (away), Villa (home), West Ham (home) 77 points
Liverpool = Palace (home), Newcastle (away) 80 points
Chelsea = Norwich (home), Cardiff (away) 78 points + a Champions League Semi Final.

As a neutral, I'm really looking forward to the twists to come and there are bound to be some. I'll stick with my original choice of Man City, but with the pressure well and truly on, whoever does finish first will have absolutely earned it.
