Of course people will care.
RVP will been seen as a masterstroke and to their credit they didn't rely on Scholes return to carry them through either.
It's their 20th title that's a big achievement, it will be portrayed as a fitting season. An a great achievement coupled with taking a title back from their nearest rivals. Trust me, this is how it will go.
I care too, I care that we squandered any chance of keeping it with draws. Whilst some were proud of unbeaten it was papering cracks. We have to set up to win, not to not concede. A solid backline is needed don't get me wrong but when you have a lineup as good as our we need to be top heavy in setup so we get the most out of a collective unit.
IMO our undoing has been lack of quality squad option, little pace and also a deep midfield. We need to bring in athleticism in CDM position and we need a solid left sided player. Nothing woudl make me happier than to go for Mascherano (bench player at Barca) and Bale (talking £70m for both imo). Those two would perfect our side imo. After that quality younger players to boost squad options and cover.
I think we need a big summer and we need two players to upgrade our starting eleven and then we need 3-4 players to boost squad depth and quality. After that I'd trim players who are expensive side options who don't justify their wage.
I think we will win it again next year with a change of tactics and shake up of squad.
Can't disagree with any of that, mate.
The irony of folks lining up to tell us how little they care about us relinquishing the title does, however, raise a smile, even after yesterday's capitulation.
Because if you really don't care about conceding the title to our fiercest rivals, then I think it may well be time to have a quiet word with yourself.
