That’s it for another Premier League season. You can fluke a cup win but not the league, and certainly not four years in a row. Congratulations to all connected with Manchester City on an extraordinary achievement. They’re the greatest team in England, one of the greatest we’ve ever seen, and there’s every chance they’ll make it five in a row next year. Goodnight!

More City reaction
Kevin De Bruyne
It feels just as amazing as the first one. We worked so hard for it and to do something historic is amazing.
(Phil Foden) has been so decisive for us this season and it was a brilliant goal at the start of the game.
This is one of my most special titles. I had a tough yeark, being out for six months, so to come back and help the team makes it a great achievement personally.
Bernardo Silva
The margins are so small. We beat Liverpool twice by one point and now Arsneal by two points. We’re so, so proud to win four in a row.
The West Ham goal created a bit of doubt because you know they don’t need to play well to do some damage – they are very good at set-pieces and counter-attacks. But we maintained the same level and the third goal was very important.
The last man up is the captain Kyle Walker. He collects the Premier League trophy, creeps theatrically towards his teammates and lifts it as high as his abundant muscles will allow: Manchester City are champions, again!
