He also celebrated with his younger sister Hollie, 20, who smiled as he hugged and kissed her.

It was clear that Grealish intended to spend the night not just with his teammates, but with as many friends as possible.

He wore a stunning Gucci suit – a brand he’s an ambassador for – to a meal and later posted a clip on his Instagram story singing the lyrics “the rest is still unwritten” while holding a drink and showing off his the winner. medal.

Meanwhile, one player is said to have been ‘kicked out’ of City’s title celebrations.

Third goalie Scott Carson, according to SplashNews.com, was ejected from the venue at 4 a.m. by security after he tried to fight a teammate.

There were wild scenes at the Etihad after the final whistle on Sunday night.

There was jubilation at the final whistle at 6pm on Sunday as jubilant fans stormed the pitch at the Etihad Stadium and rockets were launched outside pubs across the city.

A 23-match unbeaten run extinguished Arsenal’s hopes of a first Premier League title since the Gunners’ Invincible season in 2003/04, when Mikel Arteta’s side missed out by two points. Third place went to Liverpool in Jurgen Klopp’s last game.

At Manchester City, Foden struck twice early on as the side secured the Premier League title with a convincing 3-1 win over West Ham.

There were few signs of nerves on the final day from Guardiola’s dominant side, although a spectacular effort from Mohammed Kudus just before half-time at the Etihad Stadium gave rivals Arsenal a glimmer of hope.

However, this soon faded as Rodri headed home City’s third.

The win ensured they could not be caught by the second-placed Gunners, regardless of their result against Everton, which ended 2-1 to the Gunners.

Arsenal needed a favor from West Ham, who were already confirmed in ninth place and were playing the final game of David Moyes’ second spell as manager.

With City showing little sign of under pressure, only optimistic Arsenal supporters expected to escape.

It took less than two minutes to dash even their hopes as City came out of the traps to put the issue beyond reasonable doubt.

With the sun out and their player of the season Foden at his magical best, they did it in style.

Foden picked up a pass from Bernardo Silva on the right and cut inside, leaping over a challenge from James Ward-Prowse and drilling a left-footed shot into the top corner from the edge of the box.

The atmosphere had already been full of joy, but at this point the party seemed to really get going and City rose to the occasion.

West Ham, without Jarrod Bowen due to tonsillitis, could do little to repel the hosts and it looked only a matter of time before they doubled their lead as Jeremy Doku twice tested Alphonse Areola.

Rodri also hit an effort wide, but the second goal duly arrived on 18 minutes when Doku curled the ball across the box and Foden swept home a first-time shot.

Erling Haaland looked set to add another but Konstantinos Mavropanos did enough to delay him as he shaped to shoot before Areola also denied the Norwegian.

The Hammers rallied before the break as Kudus forced a save from Stefan Ortega and then pulled one back with a stunning overhead kick.

It came after a corner when the ball hit Tomas Soucek and was flicked into the air, Kudus reacting instinctively to connect with a powerful bicycle kick.

With the news filtering in shortly after Arsenal equalized against Everton, some may have been primed for second-half drama, but in reality there was little chance.

Haaland shot on goal and Kevin De Bruyne shot wide shortly after the break.

City tightened their grip and West Ham had seen little of the ball when Rodri powerfully guided City’s third from the edge of the box just before the hour mark.

West Ham looked little motivated to respond and City calmly stroked the ball.

Haaland came close to adding another when the ball glanced off his shoulder and flew inches wide.

Some hearts may have been in their mouths when Soucek put the ball into the net two minutes from time, but it clearly hit his arm and was ruled out by VAR.

City saw five minutes of stoppage time without alarm and the celebrations began in earnest, with thousands of fans ignoring pleas to stay off the pitch.

But after the game, Guardiola cast doubt on his long-term future at Manchester City after admitting he is running out of things to achieve.

“In terms of the numbers, nobody was better than us – the records, the goals, the points and four in a row,” said Guardiola, who praised Arsenal counterpart Arteta and Liverpool boss Klopp.

“If I landed here tomorrow and you said I’d win six Premier Leagues in seven years, I’d be like, ‘Are you crazy?’ It’s impossible. I did something incredible.

“Six Premier Leagues in seven years, in this country with modern football and the teams and everything. The teams and the organization surprise me, it’s an incredible club.’

It is Guardiola’s 12th league title in 15 top-flight seasons as a manager and he looks to add another FA Cup to his CV in next weekend’s Wembley final against rivals Manchester United.

The double would follow last season’s treble, leaving the City boss – whose deal expires in 2025 – running out of things to motivate him.

“The reality is I’m closer to leaving than staying,” Guardiola told Sky Sports. – It’s been eight years, it will be nine.

“Right now, my feeling is that I want to stay next season. I talked with the club, we have time to talk next season because I have to see the players too, (to see) if they follow me, follow us, for many reasons. I will stay and during the season we will talk when I am calm.’

Asked in the press conference if he felt he was done with English football and what he felt was still to be achieved, Guardiola shrugged and said: “I had that feeling last season.

“When we won in Istanbul (in the Champions League final) I said: ‘It’s over, what am I doing here?’ It’s over, there’s nothing left’.

“But I have a contract, I’m here and I’m still enjoying it. Some of the times I’m a little tired, but some of the times they like it and after I said “OK, we’re here.”

“(We’re) starting to win games, looking good, different players, new players, and I’m starting to think, ‘Nobody’s done four in a row, why don’t we try?’ And now I feel like “It’s over, so what’s next?” I do not know now.

“I know the next one is the FA Cup. Gary Lineker told me, I didn’t know, that no team had done back-to-back premierships and FA Cups.

“They are our rivals and now what I want is for my players to enjoy these two, three days, then we have two days to prepare for the final.”
