Barcelona have been gifted the La Liga trophy after Real Madrid could only afford a 2-2 draw against Valencia. Barca's earlier 2-0 victory against Real Sociedad ensured that Barca are 4 points ahead of Madrid with two matches to go. Real Madrid's hope of redemption now lies in the UCL where they will be hoping to overturn a 2 -1 Deficit against Italian Champions Juventus. Winning the Champions League is now a must for Los Blancos. Failure will most likely result in the sack of Madrid coach, Carlo Ancelotti. 

In England, Manchester United have sealed qualification for next season's UCL as Liverpool failed to beat Chelsea today. Sergio Aguero is almost certain to emerge the EPL's top scorer as City relegated QPR today. Arsenal will be in action against Swansea on Monday Night. The coming week promises to be action packed. 

Rumours of Pep Guardiola coming to replace Pellegrini at Manchester City are yet to be verified. With Bayern almost certainly out of this year's UCL, Pep is definitely unsettled in Germany and Manchester City are interested in his signature. Let's see how the drama unfolds. I eagerly anticipate a Classico final. The prospect is tantalising. Au Revoir.
