There have been some great champions, but now this year’s City will join the debate as to who is the greatest after edging an outstanding Liverpool side.
This year has lacked twists and turns until the very end, but both sides produced relentless winning streaks throughout the season in pursuit of glory.
After Sadio Mane’s early strike and Glenn Murray’s opener, City had to dig deep to secure the title, but Sergio Aguero equalised within 83 seconds and then Aymeric Laporte, Riyad Mahrez and Ilkay Gundogan scored to ensure they eased home.
Jurgen Klopp’s Reds now turn their attention to the Champions League final against Tottenham.
Here, Miguel Delaney ranks all 27 champions.
