Ilkay Gundogan praises Manchester City’s ‘special’ squad after title triumph
Manchester City captain Ilkay Gundogan praised a collective effort after Pep Guardiola’s side were crowned Premier League champions once again following Arsenal’s 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest. The Gunners needed to win to delay City’s title celebrations ahead of their home match against Chelsea on Sunday. However, Taiwo Awoniyi’s first-half goal proved enough to give Forest victory in front of a raucous home crowd, which secured their own top-flight status once again. Guardiola’s side will lift the Premier League trophy on Sunday for a third successive campaign, and a fifth time in six seasons, sealed with three matches to spare. City had overhauled Arsenal’s eight-point lead as Mikel Arteta’s men faltered, winning 11 Premier League games in a row including a 4-1 victory over their rivals at the end of April. Unbeaten in their last 23 games through all competitions, City have also reached the finals of both the FA Cup and Champions League as they remain on course for the treble. “To have helped the club win a third straight Premier League title is something very special,” Gundogan said on the Manchester City website. “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. “This squad is so talented and so special and to have been captain this season has been an enormous privilege.” German midfielder Gundogan added: “I would also like to thank Pep, all the backroom staff and everyone who works across this football club. “Every single day they help provide us as players with everything we need in order to try to be successful. There is no way we could have won this title without all their support. “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 ensures the club will continue to strive for success going forward. “It has been a season I will never forget. Our amazing fans have been with us every single step of the way. “Without their amazing backing I don’t think there is any way we would have been able to achieve what we have done these past six seasons. “Their passion and support have been so important and inspirational for us all. Hopefully winning the Premier League title again is a fitting way for us to say thank you to our fans.” Erling Haaland’s goals helped fire City to the title, as the Norway forward set a new Premier League record with 36 so far. He wrote on Twitter: “Always give your best. Always believe. It pays off. C’MON CITY!” City defender Aymeric Laporte posted: “What a season tho. Credit to absolutely everyone involved from top to bottom. “Every one of use fought for this. More to come soon hopefully but we can already be proud of this one.” Arsenal had been insatiable for most of the campaign, spending 248 days on top of the table before their late collapse handed City an opportunity to ruthlessly hunt them down. City defender Kyle Walker said: “Arsenal pushed us right to the limit they’ve been fantastic, so all credit to them. “We just went on an incredible run, they had a few hiccups and we capitalised on it and we’ve managed to end up where we have now. “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. “We achieved so much over the past five or six years, but we knew the bar wasn’t high enough at the start of the season. “When we came back after the World Cup, we had to kick on and fair play to the lads. You've got to be ready at the business end of the season because that's what this club is all about Kyle Walker “We wanted to prove anyone doubting us wrong – it wasn’t good enough. “With the lads we have in the dressing room we always believe we can do something. “The standards of the Premier League have gone up, but this is what this club is built for, certainly that’s how it’s been for the six years I’ve been here, so fair play to everyone involved. “You’ve got to be ready at the business end of the season because that’s what this club is all about and what we are built for.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Really sad day – Mikel Arteta rues tame end to Arsenal’s title challenge Erling Haaland’s record-breaking season leads Manchester City to title Haaland signing a master stroke as Man City secure another Premier League title

Really sad day – Mikel Arteta rues tame end to Arsenal’s title challenge
Mikel Arteta was apologetic as he reflected on a “really sad day” after Arsenal’s faint Premier League title hopes were ended by a 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest. Manchester City were confirmed as champions after Taiwo Awoniyi’s first-half goal saw Forest earn the three points that secured their top-flight status. The Gunners, who were insatiable for most of the campaign, had spent 248 days on top of the table and held an eight-point lead over City in March, but an alarming slide saw them overtaken by Pep Guardiola’s relentless juggernaut who claim a fifth title in six seasons. No team has spent more time on top of the table and not won the league, which left Arteta crestfallen. “Really sad day, a lot of difficult emotions, we lost the game, we lost the championship after 10 and a half months fighting for it and nine and a half months almost on top of it,” he said. “We built a lot of illusion and belief that we could go all the way and win it and in the end we fell short. Congratulations to Man City, they are the champions, they deserve to be the champions, they have done it for 38 games, we haven’t been able to do that. “That is it and from my side I apologise because we have built that belief that we could do it and in the end the team wasn’t able to do it and that is my responsibility. “Today is just a lot of sadness. You see a lot of people, they put everything, they put so much work, so much belief and so much hours and I am sad, I am sad for them because we wanted to find a way and squeeze everything we had in that group. “We fell short and this is my job and my responsibility, I have to analyse that and think. “Today we should have played much better, we gave them a goal and gave them another chance to score another goal if they wanted and we fell short to break them down. “You need, when you come to April and May, 24 players there and available, fit and playing at their best, full of confidence and ready to go and for many reasons we haven’t had that. “There are key moments in the league that define, the momentum goes there, the result goes there and we didn’t have those margins going on our side.” For Forest it was a real red letter day as they secured their survival against the odds. For large parts of the season, which began with more than 20 new signings, they looked destined to return straight back to the Championship, not least when they were on an 11-game winless run going into the end of April. But Awoniyi’s hot streak, with five goals in three games, helped Steve Cooper’s side lift themselves out of the bottom three and they can no longer be caught by Southampton, Leicester or Everton. It completes an impressive job by Cooper, who repaid Forest for the faith they showed when backing him amid their poor run, and his stock continues to rise. Asked how he felt, the Welshman said: “Just pride, a great sense of belonging at being part of something really special and important for me. “A brilliant day for the players and an equally great day for the supporters and one we deserved. It is difficult to use the word achievement at this football club because you have to be careful but it is just amazing to be able to allow the club to move forward, that’s what we all want to do. “Now is the time to talk about the players, the supporters and the game. It is a real sense of belonging and being part of something greater than any one person. “This was always going to be my toughest coaching challenge, but an enjoyable one, not a negative one. We have had everything this year, both positive and negative. “It feels great, but I am more thinking about it just allows us to progress.”
