    Chelsea

    Chelsea manger Jose Mourinho: "I know that our rivals are not going to accept this title and they are going to fight and there are three or four teams that will be aiming for us and we have to be better - me, the players and our squad.

    "Maybe they need some fresh blood to keep them under pressure. They know me they know that they are not going to keep their positions on the basis of this year."

    "If you asked me to put money on John Carver being Newcastle's manager next season I would say no. I think Mike Ashley is an astute enough man to realise he has had his wake-up call, and Carver staying would not say the club is going in the right direction.

    Coming back to the Prem?

    "I think David Moyes would be a good fit. Moyes is quite happy with Real Sociedad in Spain but is very keen to prove himself back in England."

    That's two clubs Moyes has been linked with in the last hour.

    A bit of breaking transfer news from over in Italy where Palermo striker Paulo Dybala - reportedly a target for Arsenal among others - has confirmed that he will join Juventus next season.

    The 21-year-old scored 13 goals in 35 games in Serie A and is expected to cost around 40m euros (£28m).

    "Juventus are the side who wanted me the most," the Argentine told Sky Sport Italia.

    "They made a real effort to sign me and this is why I made my decision. I can certainly win the Scudetto there, as they are a winning team. I too always play to win and can find success with them."

    Garth has cracked it. If you don't score, you go down.

    Any Hull players likely to be snapped up by their Premier League rivals?

    Final Score

    "Steve Bruce has already alluded to this but Hull have been relegated simply because they've not been scoring enough goals. I saw them at Crystal Palace, where they won, but needed five chances to convert one. It's been their problem throughout the season. QPR and Burnley struggled to score too, and guess what? They went down as well."

  9. I have no doubts about my future - Pellegrinipublished at 17:46 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini speaking to BBC Sport: "It was important to say goodbye to Frank [Lampard] by winning the game, it was a beautiful afternoon for the fans and for the squad.

    "I am not happy with the way we worked the whole year, we lost too many points against teams in relegated positions. We lost stupid points, but I assure you we are going to grow as a club next season. The most important target for us is to recover the title next season, and I believe we are not far away from doing that.

    "I never had any doubt in my mind all season [that I will stay in charge]. I know what the owners think, I speak with them all the time, they are not owners who think because you do not win the title you must go out."

  10. Manager reactionpublished at 17:43 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Leicester boss Nigel Pearson on Jamie Vardy's England call-up: "Being called up regardless of whatever anyone else says is a reflection on of his development as a player and of the sort of team he has played in.

    "If you are going to break in to the England side you need to be playing exceptionally well - but also your team-mates to be playing well as well."

    Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy on his England call-up: "I can't believe what a week it has been.

    Wasiyullah Buyde: Three legends - Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard & Didier Drogba - signed off from the Premier League. Once in a generation players!

    Henri Colens: Is it me, or isn't it time Rafa renewed his duel with Jose? Rodgers is a good manager but he may have too much on his plate.

    John Dykes: 54 points, positive goal difference, six points shy of Southampton in seventh. What a job Mark Hughes is doing at Stoke.

    Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers: "I have always said if the owners want me to go I will go. But I still feel I have a lot of offer here. There is a lot that's happened there this year that has made the job tough.

    "Performances like today don't help me and I'm fully aware of that."

    Rodgers signed a new long-term deal last summer. If the owners want him to go, he will go with a chunky pay-off.

    Leicester City

    Leicester boss Nigel Pearson: "We took a bit of time to get going. It is always difficult when you've achieved certain objectives to get what you want.

    "The end product is a really good win but we didn't quite hit some of the standards we would have liked but we did more than enough in the end.

    "It was a shame it wasn't a clean sheet as well as a win. But there are lots of positives and it is always important to try and finish a season with an outcome you can build on for next year.

    "We are not kidding ourselves in terms of how we need to move forward, because although it has been a great end to the season, it needed to be."

    Hull City

    Hull boss Steve Bruce: "It is one of those awful experience. This is a particularly low time. We are not in the big league.

    "Too many times I have come out and said we have not done bad but we have not scored. That is 17 or 18 times we have not scored.

    "I have to take the brunt of it. We have not been good enough. We believed at the start of the season we would have enough.

    "It is not a time for excuses. You have to take your medicine and come back as strongly as you can.

    "I am exhausted at the minute. My future is for others to decide. Cuts are inevitable. A lot of talking and soul-searching has to be done in the next few weeks. We are all sad at the minute. I am sure there are a few conversations to be had, which will be had in due course."

    Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers: "We made too many mistakes defensively and individually. We were beaten too easily and were not competitive enough. We were very, very poor in that first half.

    "It was always going to be a big job in the summer and today's result would certainly ratify that.

    "We understand the job ahead and we will be much better than today going forward.

    "We have got to be much better than we have been for the last six or eight weeks. We will work tirelessly to look to put on a better show next season."

    "Koeman also says he is "confident" Nathaniel Clyne will sign a new contract and the club should know either way next week.

    "He still hopes they can make it into Europe and that it will be very hard to improve on this season."

  20. Postpublished at 17:30 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Steve Bruce makes a point of congratulating the teams who have stayed up - particularly Leicester - and refuses to have any talk of excuses.

    He also says cuts will be inevitable at the club and concedes that his future is not up to him to decide now.
