Matchday 27 Awards We can agree that it’s done, right? Arsenal have drawn against Nottingham Forest (and, for the second time running, we were correct in our predictions to stay away from that or to go with a draw or Forest to win), while Liverpool did not have much trouble in beating Newcastle at home. So now the Reds are 13 points clear of second place having played a game more. It’s very hard to imagine them bottling the title now. Chelsea have managed to finally get a win, albeit over almost-relegated Southampton, while Brighton beat Bournemouth to improve their…
