A Third Consecutive Premier League Title Goes To Manchester City by Ashleyokeneye(f): 2:52pm On May 22, 2023
Manchester City has been crowned Premier League champions for the third successive season after title rivals Arsenal lost at Nottingham Forest. The Gunners, top for most of the campaign, are four points behind City with only one game left after being beaten 1-0 on Saturday. Pep Guardiola's side have won the title in five of the past six campaigns. They also can claim the Treble, with FA Cup and Champions League finals to come next month.

Only Manchester United, in 1998-99, have previously achieved that feat - and it is their derby rivals whom City will meet at Wembley on 3 June, before facing Inter Milan a week later in Istanbul, where they will hunt a first Champions League triumph. Manchester city will lift the trophy after they play Chelsea on Sunday.

Captain Ilkay Gundogan - who has scored four goals in the past two league games - said: "The Premier League is, without doubt, the most demanding and competitive league in the world, so that tells you everything about what an achievement this is. "To have won this trophy three times in a row and five times in six years is incredible. That quality and consistency helps sum up what Manchester City stand for and ensure the club will continue to strive for success going forward. "It has been a season I will never forget."
Manchester City, champions for a ninth time in the club's history, had trailed Arsenal by eight points on 7 April, although they had played one game fewer than Mikel Arteta's leaders at that point.

It is only the fourth time that a team has been as many as eight points clear after at least 28 Premier League games and failed to win the title.
Only one team has ever had 69 points with 10 games remaining - as Arsenal did - and failed to win the title. That was Liverpool in 2018-19 when they finished on 97 points, one behind City. But City has won 11 league games in a row - and dropped just two points from a possible 42 - to overhaul Arsenal and clinch the title with three games remaining."Arsenal have pushed us right to the limit," said full-back Kyle Walker. "They've been fantastic and full credit to them, but I think we just went on an incredible run, and we've managed to end up where we have now. They've had a few hiccups and we've managed to capitalize on that. "It's the players we've got. We're a bunch of lads who have achieved so much over the last number of years and we understand the standards we've set."

They have benefited from their financial resources and lack of competition. Nice one though!
