As the Citizens team celebrated together, the club’s supporters gathered in their stadium to revel in their triumph.

But some were clearly in a cheeky mood, as they wrote Arsenal’s name on clear plastic bottles.

It represents Arsenal’s collapse since April, with Mikel Arteta saying after the City Ground defeat that he takes “responsibility” for their downfall.

Arsenal, who at one point led City by eight points, spent 248 days at the top of the table.

The Gunners have been steadily dropping points since early April

This is the most times a team has led the Premier League without successfully winning the title.

While some fans took the time to poke fun at the North Londoners, others were simply enjoying the moment with loved ones and friends.

Flares were also set off as fans celebrated the first leg of a potential historic treble.

The Citizens will face Manchester United in the FA Cup final on June 3, before taking on Inter Milan in the Champions League final the following week.

City fans have had plenty to celebrate in recent years

The European Cup is the only major trophy that has eluded Pep Guardiola since he took charge of the club in 2016.

But he will be fully aware of the feat he achieved with City, who have now won the Premier League in five of the last six years.

And you can be sure there will be a party atmosphere at the Etihad on Sunday when City host Chelsea.
