Manchester City is creating its own empire.
The "Skyblues" has made history by becoming the first team in the Premier League to have win the championship 4 consecutive seasons
Manchester City has started and is creating its own empire. Pep Guardiola's side, who were knocked out of the Champions League final on Sunday (19/05) after a superb performance at the Etihad, beat West Ham 3-1 and made history by becoming the first team in the Premier League to have win the championship 4 consecutive seasons. Something no other team has accomplished.
Also, City reached 6 championships in the last 7 years (10 in total in its history), while Pep Guardiola caught the 2nd place of managers with the most championships in England, the great Bob Paisley (of Liverpool) with 6 trophies. While he surpassed Sir Matt Busby, Tom Watson (5 championships) and having only Sir Alex Ferguson (13 championships) ahead of him.
Along with the citizens, Pep Guardiola also lives moments of absolute pride, with the Catalan completing 8 years on their bench (he took over the reins in the summer of 2016) and celebrating the conquest of the 6th championship (in 2017 it was won by Chelsea and 2020 Liverpool). Guardiola's great team became the first team in English football to win 4 consecutive league titles.
At the same time, the winning of this year's title is the eighth since 2012 and during the Arab era and tenth overall for Manchester City, which elevates it alone to the 4th place in the "golden" Bible (leaving behind Everton of 9 titles) and allows it to further reduce the distance that separates it from this year's great rival, Arsenal, which has remained at 13 conquests since 2004.
Hundreds of Manchester City fans entered the "Etihad" pitch, immediately after the end of the match against West Ham and the conquest of the Premier League.
