Major records broken in Europe this season

#2 Manchester City romp to EPL title with record wins (32), goals (106) and points (100)

Is this the greatest team to ever play in the EPL?

Boy oh boy, that was some season for Manchester City! Pep Guardiola’s swashbuckling side successfully brought the Premier League trophy back to the blue half of Manchester after 4 years. But when you consider the manner in which they did it, it was worth the wait.

Widely touted to be one of the greatest sides ever in the division, the Skyblues smashed records after records each week. They not only surpassed Arsenal’s record of 14 wins on the trot with 18 of their own, but also clinched the competition with records number of wins. City’s 32 bested the 30 victories by Chelsea last year.

They also set a new record for 106 goals scored, bettering the Blues side of 2009/10 who struck 103 times. But its the 100-points tally that truly takes the cake.

No side ever accrued more than the 95 points by Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea of 2004/05, but City surpassed that mark with a game in hand, before the victory on the final matchday over Southampton clinched triple digit figures.

Pep’s side now join the elite group of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus as the only teams in Europe’s top 5 leagues to secure 100 points in a league season.
