"Manchester United got lucky on a few fronts this season as they stumbled over the finishing line in the race for a top-four finish...

For starters, we had a World Cup that should never have been allowed to take place, stuck in the middle of the season.

That made it feel like two very separate stories – before and after the tournament in Qatar.

The break helped United manager Erik ten Hag as Cristiano Ronaldo was pushed out of the club just before that World Cup and, if the season was ongoing, it would have been a huge story...

Another big helping hand that has pushed United towards a top-four finish has come from their rivals, especially Chelsea and Liverpool...

When I look at the Premier League table heading into the final games today, the gap between United and Liverpool is not big.

This is a season when Liverpool have been dreadful and United have been hailed for making big progress under Ten Hag, yet they are only six points ahead.

I’m sure United will spend big this summer and if they get Harry Kane out of Tottenham, they will be a threat next season.

Yet United and the rest are still a million miles behind Manchester City and recent history suggests only one team and one manager can close that gap.

Klopp and Liverpool stood up to City during this period of dominance and the Premier League would have been much less exciting without that competition".
