The Wolves manager saw his side Jurgen Klopp's defiant Liverpool are only going in one direction - and Pep Guardiola's Man City know it in the final day of the Premier League season, but with his own side's seventh place finish already secure Liverpool's remarkable 97 points haul was only enough to finish second.
Wolves finished a mammoth 40 points behind the Reds and Santo said: "It is amazing, This title race between City and Liverpool was amazing.
"The world was on these two games today and how they did it was fantastic. The jobs of both managers was amazing.
