FOUR-IN-A-ROW: Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City have been crowned Premier League champions for a record fourth season
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City have been crowned Premier League champions for a record fourth season in a row after beating West Ham on the final day.
Man City clinched the victory they needed at the Etihad to pip Arsenal to the title by two points – their sixth Premier League triumph of the Guardiola era.
Foden, who was player of the match in Sunday’s 3-1 win over West Ham after scoring two goals, told Sky Sports after the game: “Not just me, all the lads have played in important games, we’ve played this scenario over. We were confident. It’s paid off.
“It was the perfect start. The [nickname] sniper is going to stay forever now. This feeling will never get old. I want this winning feeling always.”
