Manchester City won an unprecedented fourth consecutive Premier League title on Sunday as Phil Foden’s double inspired a 3-1 victory over West Ham.
No side in the history of the English top flight had ever won four successive titles, but City have become accustomed to rewriting the record books under Pep Guardiola.
The Catalan coach has masterminded six Premier League wins in the past seven seasons.
In four of those years, City have also surpassed 90 points. They were pushed this season to deny Arsenal a first title since 2003/04.
The Gunners celebrated a 0-0 draw at the Etihad last month that kept them one point in front of City with nine games to play.
But the champions were relentless in the run-in, winning their final nine league games, scoring 33 goals.
Guardiola conceded City had felt the pressure in a nervy 2-0 win at Tottenham in midweek that kept the destiny of the title in their own hands.
There was far less drama as West Ham melted under the baking Manchester sun in David Moyes’ final game in charge of the Hammers.
Foden was recently crowned the football writers’ player of the year for his best-ever goalscoring season and ended any suspense after just 79 seconds.
