Former Manchester City defender Pablo Zabaleta says he was always sure the 2013/14 Premier League title would end up at the Etihad.
The famous run-in eight years ago saw Liverpool in pole position with three games to go, but defeat against Chelsea and a draw with Crystal Palace allowed City to capitalise and lift their second title of the Premier League era.
“I feel we always kept believing that we were going to win the Premier League (in 2014)," he told the club's website this week. “We played great football that season. Liverpool were in a good moment and was a team that was a big contender, but I feel we always believed that the Premier League was for us.
“Even in 2012 with (Roberto) Mancini, we were the same but with Manchester United and we just kept pushing and believing until the end. That was one of the reasons we won the league. Those two seasons were fantastic."
