MANCHESTER CITY lifted their fifth Premier League title in six years at the Etihad on Sunday.
Pep Guardiola’s men were confirmed as English champions yet again following Nottingham Forest’s win over Arsenal 24 hours earlier.
It came after an 11-game winning streak which saw Man City overhaul a floundering Gunners side that has wilted during the run-in.
The Sky Blues are now set to finish with a sizeable gap back to Mikel Arteta’s men as their 1-0 win over Chelsea opened up a seven-point lead – with City also boasting a game in hand.

But during City’s party atmosphere on Sunday, Wright could be seen with silver hair and a some noticeable stubble.
He was snapped alongside Guardiola as the Man City boss placed an arm on the ex-Arsenal man’s shoulder.
After leaving Arsenal in 2002, Wright went on to play for Everton, West Ham, Ipswich and Sheffield United.
The two-cap England man then finished his career with four years at Man City – albeit without playing any games.
Retiring in 2016, Wright has remained with Man City and is now a goalkeeping coach at the club.
