Surprised at Mahrez but Pep is the boss!! Should be good enough to do the job. Nice, relaxing afternoon please.
Final day and a big day. Let us hope that The Seagulls do not shit on us.
Starting eleven
Ederson, Walker, Kompany (C), Laporte, Zinchenko, Gundogan, Silva, Mahrez, Sterling, Bernardo, Aguero
Subs | Muric, Danilo, Stones, De Bruyne, Sané, Otamendi, Jesus
DeBruyne and Sané, no Foden and flip me Mahrez starts (I dread him playing, so selfish, so one-trick pony, when he plays City stutter badly, God help us have mercy on us).
C'mon City
Mahrez has been bobbins this season, trade him back to Leicester for a player who is decent technically, but is a team player and gives it all. Pep must believe the bus will be well and truly parked and a key to unlock them is needed. Hope we score a hatful.
Fernandinho is always the first name I look for, let's hope Gunda can do the job and Mahrez pulls his finger out.
Could be the last game for us for both of them today.
who died for mahrez to get a game?
Walker needs to sort himself out
Not impressed with first twenty minutes. Gundogan showing signs of stress, timid shots hopefully passes. Early days.
Mahrez is just selfish and greedy. Shoot always never cross.
Good enough first half in the end after a worrying start. We need more because the ref is determined to give Brighton as many free kicks as poss. That decision against Vinny at the end of the half was shocking. It was brilliant defending, strong and got the ball. These refs are killing the game.
Second that Gav. Its standard practice that teams are aloud to be physical against us but we can't return the favour. That free kick against Vinny was indeed a joke, and I've noticed the ref has. Been stood slap bang in the middle of the edge of the box, hoping to get in the way.
Fuck em.
Too pedestrian at the moment we need another goal or Brighton could Aguero us.
Mahrez. You cracker.
can i relax now?
Champions, yet again. Awesome.
Never doubted it!! Haha
Amazing. Back to back titles is something else.
Retaining the PL has been an incredible achievement.
It was amazing how quickly we scored after they did. A true reaction of champions. Maybe we should have started better but when it mattered the response was one that tells you everything about the players we have at this club. It was an awesome performance in the end.
I'm so pleased that Mahrez came good in the end. I have criticised him a lot this season and have never forgiven him for the penalty at Anfield. Until now. Full credit to him for making a key contribution today despite his troubles this season. I hope he can go on to become a true City legend.

I'll second that, I would have blamed him for losing this PL title for that Anfield penalty but he repaid his dues today.
Agree on Mahrez - still time for him to come good. If anyone can get the best out of him, it has to be Pep. It's a pretty small group of players that have won the Prem with 2 different clubs...
My favourite moment of the game, when Brighton scored Pep taking off his coat with real purpose, to get down to serious business.
