#5. 2011-12, 8 points, Manchester City
Manchester City can look at their own history for inspiration. Sir Alex Ferguson’s boys were ahead by 8 points, with only 9 games left to play. Robert Mancini had essentially conceded that the chase was no more than a pipe dream. But in a sudden twist, United lost to Wigan and Everton before losing the derby 1-0 at the Etihad Stadium.
With only 2 games left after the derby, United had no time to recover. Both teams finished on 89 points, but City had a goal difference of 64, while United had a net difference of 56 goals. City had to win their last 6 games to tie with United on points.
In an intense finish on the final day of the season, despite City struggling to put it past Queens Park Rangers, Sergio Agüero’s strike proved to be the difference between the two Manchester teams, City winning the league on goal difference.
