Manchester City Clinches Premier League Title
Manchester City superstar David Silva has posted heartfelt photo of himself and his son Mateo after his club were confirmed as the new Premier League champions on Sunday, April 15.
Though their African stars, Ivory Coast's Yaya Toure and Senegal's Benjamin Mendy, did not play as much as they would have liked to, their talents, combined with the sublime Kevin de Bruyne, David Silva, Sergio Aguero and captain Vincent Company, have ensured City can not be overtaken, with five games to play this season.
"We didn't want or played simple, everything was slow, one more flick, trick, turn".
They certainly were stunned at Old Trafford when Jay Rodriguez led home although United had to draw keep the title race alive.
"Playing in the Champions League at that age, sometimes it is complicated".
Manchester United won the 1999-2000 title by a record 18 points with 91 to Arsenal's 73. Guardiola has argued he is not a miracle worker but one who needs special players to achieve his goals.
The defeat put United's second spot position in danger, as their advantage over third-placed Liverpool was reduced to just one point.
With the title won while City were not on the pitch, they will not get the chance to celebrate the win fully with fans until they return to action against Swansea at the Etihad Stadium next Sunday.
Can anyone stop City next season?
West Brom hadn't won in the Premier League since January, losing nine of their last 10 league games to slip to the brink of relegation.
City's next target is to overhaul the record 95 points Chelsea accrued in Jose Mourinho's first season at the helm.
He was particularly wasteful against United last weekend when missing two one-on-ones, which proved costly as City squandered a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2.
"I suppose my team-mates will roll their eyes a little bit but I kind of want to see what the reaction is now", the Belgian, also a title-winner in 2012 and 2014, told Sky Sports.
After their limp Champions League exit against Liverpool, a City collapse against Tottenham would have had the critics carping that Guardiola has no Plan B when things go wrong.
"There's nothing better. Long may it continue and hopefully, every single Cityzen around the world parties for us tonight".
In his second season in charge, Guardiola, aided by the vast financial backing of City's Abu Dhabi-based owners, has created a sublime team that helped him become the first Spanish coach to win the English top-flight title.
"When I was 20, I would have been a flawless player for him", he said. "Winning at Stamford Bridge gave us a feeling of, 'OK, against the last champions, we are able to come here and play'".
