Pep Guardiola: 'Next year City will be even stronger'

Manchester City clinched the Premier League title after surviving a minor scare at the Amex to come back and win 2-1, with goals by Sergio Aguero and Aymeric Laporte sealing their second crown in two years.

Liverpool did their job at Anfield, beating Wolves, but it was only enough to finish second after City's astonishing run of 14 successive victories to finish the campaign. Tottenham and Chelsea rounded out the top four as Arsenal and Manchester United came in fifth and sixth respectively.

Wolves were best of the rest in seventh as Everton, Leicester and West Ham rounded out the top half – after the Hammers beat Watford on the final day to send the Hornets down to 11th.

Cardiff beat Manchester United to finish only two points from safety and they will wonder what might have been this season.

Here's how they stand at the end of the 2018-19 season:
