00:00 Well, they just keep breaking records, don't they?

00:03 I mean, it's been another, as far as Premier League's concerned,

00:09 of course, another fantastic season for Manchester City.

00:13 I think it's interesting we look at the whole season because

00:17 I don't think there's been a spell where we have seen four or five games

00:22 where City have absolutely smashed teams.

00:25 They've had the odd big result.

00:27 I followed a lot of the games this season where they've won

00:30 but haven't been overly imperative, especially compared to last season.

00:33 But in a way, I could detect from the beginning of the season

00:36 there was something different about the way Pep was approaching it.

00:40 I don't think it was all the guts and thunder of last season.

00:44 In the end, it's funny, as much as it turned into a two-horse race

00:49 for the last couple of weeks, they were always in the lead.

00:53 They always had it under control.

00:56 And just like a Mo Farah finish, just a little bit of afterburners

01:02 at the end and you know that they were going to win it.

01:04 Of course, when you start tallying Premier League trophies or league titles,

01:08 then City are way behind the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool even.

01:12 But from the moment that they first won that Premier League title to now,

01:18 I mean, they are, you would argue, head and shoulders better than anyone else.

01:24 thoroughly deserved as well because they've had that consistency, they've had that belief.
