Pep Guardiola says "this was the hardest" Premier League title win

Manchester City have been crowned the Premier League champions after Leicester city beat Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Pep Guardiola's side have won three Premier League title in four years as they are now 10 points clear at the top of the table with just three games left.

"This has been a season and a Premier League title like no other," said Guardiola.

"This was the hardest one. We will always remember this season for the way we won. I am so proud to be the manager here and of this group of players.

"They are so special. To come through this season, with all the restrictions and difficulties we've faced - and show the consistency we have is remarkable. It is relentless.

"Every single day, they are there, fighting for success, trying always to be better. They have been so, so resilient.

"I have been in Spain, I have been in Germany and I can say this is the toughest league, I would say by far. So it means a lot to everyone."

Since arriving in Manchester in 2016, Pep Guardiola has now won eight domestic trophies.

They had the chance to win it on Saturday, but Chelsea delayed their imminent celebrations after Thomas Tuchel's side came from behind to defeat City 2-1 at Etihad Stadium.

Nevertheless, Leicester city finished the job with a 2-1 away win at Old Trafford on Tuesday.

This is City's second silverware in two weeks after they triumphed over Tottenham to win the Carabao Cup and they will also be playing Chelsea in their first Champions League final after knocking out PSG in the semi-final.

The Etihad side will lift the Premier League trophy after their final match of the season against Everton on 23rd of May.

And about 10,000 fans will be in the stadium to watch after the England government lifted Coronavirus restrictions.
