Bournemouth got us up and running but Chavs away looked season defining.

The Chav game was the one where we proved we were special.

i too would like to see Foden get some game time. not only to further develop him but also to have him get a medal legitimately (only has 4 apps). at the same time though i want to see us go for 5 wins and the goals scored record.

RECORDS SMASHED
CONSECUTIVE PREMIER LEAGUE WINS

CITY TOTAL: 18

PREVIOUS RECORD: 13

PREVIOUS RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea

From Raheem Sterling's last-gasp winner at Bournemouth on August 26 until City's 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace on New Year's Eve, they won 18 Premier League games in a row, demolishing the 13-game record set by Chelsea in 2016/17. The streak also beat Arsenal's 14-game run of wins which was split across the end of the 2001/02 season and the start of 2002/03.

MOST PASSES IN A PREMIER LEAGUE GAME

CITY TOTAL: 902

PREVIOUS RECORD: 843

PREVIOUS RECORD HOLDER: Man City

The 902 passes achieved against Chelsea in March's 1-0 win, was a new Premier League record, surpassing the total set by Guardiola's side in October against West Brom. Ilkay Gundogan's 167 successful passes and 181 touches from the same game were also Premier League records.

RECORDS EQUALLED
GAMES TO PLAY WITH TITLE WON

CITY TOTAL: 5

PREVIOUS RECORD: 5

PREVIOUS RECORD HOLDER: Manchester United (2000/01)

The United side of 2000/01 held the previous record for winning the title with the highest number of games remaining, being crowned champions with five fixtures to play after a title-winning 4-2 victory over Coventry at Old Trafford. City have matched that record.

RECORDS STILL TO BREAK
MOST WINS

CITY TOTAL: 28

CURRENT RECORD: 30

RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea (2016/17)

City are on course to record more wins than any other club in a Premier League season, having already won 28 en route to their coronation.

The current record holders are Antonio Conte's Chelsea last term with 30, but City will only need to win two of their last five games to match the Blues - and three to set a new record.

MOST AWAY WINS

CITY TOTAL: 14

CURRENT RECORD: 15

RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea (2004/05)

City have won 14 of their 17 away fixtures, dropping points at Crystal Palace, Liverpool and Burnley.

Jose Mourinho's Chelsea side of 2004/05 hold the current record of 15 away wins. However, City will break this record if they win both of their remaining away games against West Ham and Southampton.

MOST POINTS

CITY TOTAL: 87

CURRENT RECORD: 95

RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea (2004/05)

The same Chelsea side also hold the record for most points in a season with 95. Again, City are on course to snatch this record from Mourinho's list of accolades.

In fact, Guardiola's side still have another 15 points up for grabs and five successive wins would take their tally to a remarkable 102 points.

MOST AWAY POINTS

CITY TOTAL: 44

CURRENT RECORD: 48

RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea (2004/05)

Chelsea collected 48 points on the road during 2004/05 and Guardiola will snatch another record from Mourinho if City win both of their remaining away games - a win and a draw would match the record.

MOST GOALS SCORED

CITY TOTAL: 93

CURRENT RECORD: 103

RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea (2009/10)

Chelsea scored 103 goals during their title-winning season in 2009/10 under Carlo Ancelotti, which equates to 2.7 goals per game on average.

Under Guardiola's stewardship, City are on track to surpass Chelsea's. They need 11 goals from the last five matches at a rate of 2.2 per game to break the record.

GOAL DIFFERENCE

CITY TOTAL: +68

CURRENT RECORD: +71

RECORD HOLDER: Chelsea (2009/10)

The same Chelsea side ended the season with a record +71 goal difference, boosted by 29 goals from top goalscorer Didier Drogba.

City are almost certainly set to surpass this record with a current goal difference of +68 - having faced a league-low 77 shots on target and conceded a league-low 25 goals.

POINTS AHEAD OF SECOND

CITY TOTAL: 16

CURRENT RECORD: 18

RECORD HOLDER: Manchester United (1999/00)

Manchester United ended the 1999/00 campaign 18 points ahead of runners-up Arsenal, despite winning only 28 of their fixtures.

City currently command a 16-point lead over United so this record is also in their sights if they can finish the season stronger than their great rivals.
