Five talking points from the final round of Premier League fixtures

:Headline: Five talking points from the final round of Premier League fixtures:
Agony for Leicester again as Liverpool and Chelsea clinch Champions League spots.
Sports Mole

The final day of the Premier League season brought joy for Liverpool and Chelsea and agony for Leicester.

On a day when most of the major issues had long been resolved, the Foxes missed out on Champions League football for the second successive season.

Elsewhere, Sergio Aguero said his goodbyes to Manchester City with a trademark double, while Newcastle loanee Joe Willock set another goalscoring record.

When Harry beat Salah

Harry Kane is in for an interesting summer. Kane went into what many believe could be his last game for Tottenham locked together with Liverpool's Mohamed Salah on 22 goals in the race for the Golden Boot. The England captain nudged his way ahead with a 41st-minute strike in his side's 4-2 win at Leicester and Salah could not match him as the Reds beat Crystal Palace 2-0 with Sadio Mane scoring both.

Leicester outfoxed

Brendan Rodgers' men are really going to have to get the job done earlier if they are going to rub shoulders with European football's elite again. For the second successive season, they missed out on a Champions League place at the end. Starting the day in fifth place, the FA Cup winners knew realistically they needed to win to claim a top-four spot – and their home defeat by Spurs meant it is Liverpool and Chelsea, beaten 2-1 at Aston Villa, who will join the Manchester rivals on the big stage next season.

Come and get me

David Moyes will look back upon the 2020-21 season as the one during which he re-established his reputation as a manager. Having endured a difficult few years since leaving Everton for Manchester United, he arrived at West Ham via Real Sociedad and Sunderland to little fanfare, but ended the season having guided the Hammers to a club record Premier League points total of 65, just two behind the Champions League places in sixth after a 3-0 home win over Southampton.
