Manchester City have officially secured the Premier League title for the fourth consecutive season, cementing their place in English football history. Pep Guardiolaโs team finished ahead of Arsenal in a fiercely contested title race that lasted until the penultimate matchweek.
๐น Historic Achievement
This marks Cityโs eighth Premier League title overall and their sixth under Guardiola. By winning four in a row (2022, 2023, 2024, and now 2025), City have surpassed the previous record of three consecutive titles held by Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson.
They achieved the feat with a blend of tactical brilliance, squad depth, and consistency, finishing the season with 91 points, narrowly edging Arsenal who ended with 88.
๐ Key Players in the Title Run
- Erling Haaland โ Once again led the scoring charts with 29 league goals, dominating defenders across the country.
- Phil Foden โ Enjoyed a breakout season, contributing both goals and creativity from midfield.
- Rodri โ The midfield general remained ever-reliable, dictating the tempo in key games.
- Josko Gvardiol and Rรบben Dias โ Solidified the defense after a shaky start to the season.
- Ederson โ Finished with 15 clean sheets, topping the Golden Glove chart.
๐ฃ๏ธ Guardiola Reacts
In his post-match interview, manager Pep Guardiola said:
โIโm incredibly proud of this team. Every title is special, but doing it four times in a row is something historic. The players showed character, passion, and professionalism from start to finish.โ
๐ Title Rivals: Arsenal Fall Short Again
Arsenal, under Mikel Arteta, led the table for much of the season and pushed City all the way. Despite strong performances from Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, and Martin รdegaard, they couldn’t overcome City’s late-season form.
๐ Whatโs Next for City
- FA Cup Final: Manchester City will face Manchester United next week at Wembley.
- Champions League Semifinal: A showdown with Real Madrid awaits in the second leg, with the aggregate score currently tied.
