X reacts as Man City beat Arsenal to the Premier League title after West Ham win
- Man City beat West Ham 3-1 at the Etihad to secure the Premier League title
- Arsenal snuck a 2-1 victory over Everton after late controversy
- Victory ensured a record fourth successive title for Pep Guardiola's side

Manchester City beat West Ham United 3-1 on the final day of the Premier League season to secure a record fourth successive title.
A brace from Phil Foden and a Rodri strike meant that Mohammed Kudus' excellent overhead kick was nothing more than a consolation coem the full-time whistle.
Arsenal did manage a late 2-1 victory over Everton at the Emirates, but they were unable to leapfrog a sensational Man City side.
Here is how social media reacted to Man City being crowned champions.
City were in pole position to secure yet another Premier League crown and simply needed to beat West Ham on Sunday afternoon to win the trophy.
However, there were plenty of nerves to be handed out, with Arsenal still capable of being crowned champions if they beat Everton and Pep Guardiola's side slipped up.
We might be able to win our 4th premier league title in a row, then win the double having won the treble the season before, yet Iβm STILL nervous for West Ham at home π€£. The nerves are never gonna go away, are they?

I canβt express how nervous but unbelievably excited I am.

I mean Arsenal could very well win the title today.
But hey, it pays to be realistic. Whatever happens the past two seasons have been so awesome. Proud of this team
As much as it is still incredibly unlikely that we win the title today, the nerves have just hit me like a train! π¬

But any nerves among City supporters were swiftly extinguished by the Premier League Player of the Season Foden, who gave Pep Guardiola's side the lead after just two minutes at the Etihad.
The dazzling 23-year-old received Bernardo Silva's pass on the edge of the area and rifled home a wonderful effort to put a firm Man City hand on the title.
For some Arsenal fans, it was game over already.
What a goal, Phil Foden π₯π pic.twitter.com/ccxOWp0ocf

If Foden's first wasn't devastating enough for Arsenal supporters, his second killed off any hope of Premier League glory in north London.
Another excellent finish from the Englishman doubled Man City's lead and once again highlighted just why he has been voted the Premier League's best this term.

Arsenal were hardly inspiring confidence at the Emirates themselves but managed to cancel out an Idrissa Gueye goal just before the break through Tomiyasu's effort.
However, things suddenly got a little better for Arsenal fans, with Kudus pulling a goal back for West Ham just minutes before half-time at the Etihad.
The Ghanaian produced an immense overhead kick to reduce Man City's deficit...and offer a glimmer of hope to those in the capital.
That is a FABULOUS goal π₯

However, just as Arsenal fans began to allow themselves to dream just a little, Rodri, who exclusively scores big goals for Man City, restored the champions' two-goal lead.
The Spaniard lined up a shot on the edge of the box and his low drive wriggled past Alphonse Areola. Few Man City players are more deserving of such a goal than Rodri.
RODRRRRI

Arsenal did secure a controversial victory with Kai Havertz's late strike - a goal that should have been ruled out for handball - but it didn't matter as Man City held on for a crucial 3-1 victory.
Despite a valiant effort from the Gunners over the course of the season, they were unable to stop Man City making it four in a row as Guardiola's side claimed yet another Premier League crown.
Man City have done it - The first ever team to win four consecutive Premier League titles! ππππ
