The 97 we have amassed sees us surpass Chelsea’s record of 95 with one match left to play.
We have also broken the Premier League record for most wins in a season.
City have managed 31 in 37 games so far, which eclipses the 30 Chelsea registered in 2016-17 and equals the all-time English top-flight record Tottenham’s double-winning side secured in 1960-61.
It also equals our Club record of 31 wins in a single season, which we managed under Kevin Keegan in 2001-02 in a 46-game campaign in the second tier of English football.
And the win over Chris Hughton’s side means we have also set a new Premier League record for goals scored in a single season, underlining our status as the most potent attacking side in recent history.
We now have 105 – two more than the 103 Chelsea bagged in 2009-10. The last team to register more than 103 in a top-flight campaign were Tottenham, who scored 111 in 1962-63.
Everyone at City would like to congratulate Pep Guardiola, his players and staff on a record-breaking campaign.
