About this deal

This is special, really special," said Patrice Evra, the United defender. "The manager put really big pressure on us. I remember after the defeat at Arsenal he said, 'Do you really not want to win the 19th title? Are you crazy? Now you've got to win it. How many titles are you going to throw away?' It was very important to win it here otherwise someone would have got the hairdryer." It was as though the heavens had taken a prior peek at Arsene Wenger’s hand and taken pity. Some celestial tinkering, perhaps by a sympathetic power, knowing that this would transpire to be the club’s most iconic manager’s final Premier League title win, had quietly pulled strings to give him the sweetest possible victory at the home of his team’s greatest rival. Jamie Carragher highlights overlooked 'strength' that makes Erling Haaland special... after the Man City striker netted his 50th Premier League goal in just his 48th match against Liverpool It will be a big, big, big party – probably even bigger than Jamie Vardy’s party,” said the youthful deputy mayor, Rory Palmer, on Tuesday. “The city’s never seen anything like this. The spontaneous stuff last night gives us an indication of how big it will be – possibly the biggest party in Leicester’s history.”

Arsenal legend Freddie Ljungberg reveals the ONE weakness he thinks Arsene Wenger's Invincibles had and the 2004 team-mate he admired the most as Swede admits his Champions League regret on MNF OLIVER HOLT: Ill, thin and broken, ex-England footballer Kieron Dyer, 44, was dying with a rare liver disease just 11 weeks ago. Now, he speaks for the first time after a 'miracle' transplant gave him a second shot at life If the universe (and an infected bat) had gone in a slightly different direction, Liverpool would have surely been champions by now. But what would that world have looked like? How would Reds fans have reacted? Well, like this, obviously… 1. Invading your social media feeds OK, so it’s not that classic, but you’ve got to feel for Liverpool fans. Practically overnight they’ve gone from potentially being days away from seeing their team lift a maiden Premier League trophy to being forced to stay indoors and watch reruns of games that took them to the cusp of glory – with the knowledge that it may all have been in vain.

This is despite the fact you never knew that colleague even liked football. Every office knows this pain.

He's given that winning mentality to everyone, that hunger to try to win, that's Sir Alex Ferguson." Social media would be flooded with pictures of creative and bizarre tattoos – Jurgen Klopp appearing to give birth to the Premier League trophy whilst Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino hold his hands, anyone? – which mark their title win in gory style. Pep Guardiola urges Man City's fans to become 'ANIMALS' again ahead of Champions League clash with RB Leipzig... as he warns 'to be successful we need our fans ALL the time' Perhaps the only confirmed detail of Saturday’s extravaganza is that the Leicester City superfan Steve Worthy will have the honour of handing the Premier League trophy to his team before their game against Everton at the King Power.Ferdinand said: “This club will never sit and rest on its laurels, especially with the manager we’ve got. The manager is a winner and everything stems from him really.” It is the collective that has stood United apart. Berbatov and Rooney have excelled in stages, Hernandez has emerged and Nemanja Vidic, Edwin van der Sar and Giggs have provided consistently. Inflatables were hurled and flares let off as City's supporters basked in their incredible victory and City's players even mobbed former player Yaya Toure, who was in Brighton on punditry duty.

Outside the restaurant, nine-year-old Louis Goodge weaved through the crowds for a glimpse of his heroes. His Leicester-born parents, Ellie and Joe Goodge, took Louis and his younger sister Ivy, six, out of school and drove from Hertfordshire so they could be part of the amazing story. “Louis has only just started watching football this season. It’s inspiring, the fact that anyone, not just big teams, can do it,” said Ellie, as her son beamed. “I’ve just seen Kasper Schmeichel,” he said excitedly.

Getting You’ll Never Walk Alone to No1 I said hello to the bell-boy and he did the throat-slit gesture!': Thirty years after they ran gauntlet of hate in Istanbul, Man United are ready for another fiery 'Welcome to Hell' in crucial Champions League tie The team bus was followed by two others, one of them carrying a large contingent waving the national flag of the club’s Thai owner, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha. The team’s international following was strongly in evidence along the route, too, with Japanese fans holding banners with messages for the forward Shinji Okazaki. Following the final whistle, Vincent Kompany's side began their celebrations, with club staff and players invading the Amex Stadium pitch to toast victory with the club's fans.

Marking a momentous occasion with a tattoo is a rite of passage for many football fans, and this would have been no exception.

Tie loosened, arms stretched out wide, he made particular mention of the young players he has blooded this season who have now tasted a first title triumph. In 2005-06 a period of transition saw United offer a tame challenge to Chelsea in the Premier League and finish bottom of their Champions League group. The contrast five seasons on should not go unnoticed. “You can see he’s like a kid,” said Evra. “It’s like he’s just won the league for the first time.” REVEALED: Tiger Woods will make his highly-anticipated return to the PGA Tour alongside long-time pal Justin Thomas at the Hero World Challenge Thursday READ MORE: The hairiest football stars EVER on anniversary of Ryan Giggs’ legendary celebration If it’s still going, there are probably odds on it at PaddyPower.com 2. Getting a tattoo It was not only football fans revelling in the moment. Liz Gray, 58, cycled to the stadium because she felt “enthused” by the history making title victory and its effect on the city. “I’m not a football fan at all but this has really inspired me,” she said. “It’s great for the city to have something to celebrate. It’s great for people to have common events. I’ve been caught up in it.”

That dull cubicle you’ve never noticed in the corner of your office? Yeah, that would suddenly become a sea of red scarves and flags, the walls adorned with posters of Jurgen Klopp, with the desk housing a “Champions 2019/20” coffee mug and an inflatable Premier League trophy. The point that ensured United became the most decorated champions in English football arrived from a display that encapsulated not only much of their season but Ferguson’s reign. They failed to capitalise on early dominance, survived several scares and rarely troubled Paul Robinson on a day when anxiety accompanied the touch of Tomasz Kuszczak, Nani and Javier Hernandez. But they found a way.
