No doubt, Manchester City de-served to wrest the English Premier League crown from neighbours Manchester United and make it two titles in three years.
On their way to the champion-ship title, the Citizens scored 102 goals as they sent their fans into raptures on the last day of the season following a 2-0 home win over West Ham United which made sure of their success.
Manager Manuel Pellegrini, described as boring by some critics following his appointment last summer, forged a brilliant side during the season that rewarded him with the first league title of his career after 10 years on the European continent.
Man. City were devastating in attack, playing with a freedom few others in the English league could manage.
In the 2013-14 campaign just ended, the Citizens also won the League Cup following a 3-1 win over Sunderland at Wembley Stadium in March.
