Here is the best social media reaction to Manchester City’s fifth Premier League title, after Pep Guardiola’s Citizens were crowned champions yesterday (11 May).
Man City were confirmed as champions after Manchester United lost 2-1 at home to Leicester, which meant that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Red Devils could no longer catch City with three games left.
Club captain, Fernandinho immediately took to Twitter to describe this title as ‘very big’ and dedicated their success to every member of Man City and the fans.
Wow, we did it again. 🙌🏾 This is very big and belongs to all of us CITYZENS. I’m so proud to be part of this team. Let’s keep pushing! 🏆🏆🏆🏆 CHAMPIOOOOONEEEESSSS

Other Man City players like Kyle Walker, Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden soon tweeted of their joy at City’s title win.

Midfielder, Ilkay Gundogan meanwhile bemoaned the fact that City failed to seal the title on their own turf, instead losing 2-1 to Chelsea which delayed their title celebrations by a few days.
Champions of England… again 🙌🏼🏆💙 I would have prefered to celebrate this moment after an own game, but I take it anyway 😘🏆 what a season! 💪🏼 @premierleague @ManCity

Gundogan also took a moment to congratulate Leicester defender, Caglar Soyuncu for heading in the goal which gave City the title.
