A Premier League table of the decade has been compiled and Manchester City have been the dominant side in England's top flight.
City have earned an astonishing 812 points in the last 10 years on their way to four Premier League titles.
Interestingly, Manchester United come in second despite their struggles since Sir Alex's retirement in 2013.
It comes as no shock that Pep Guardiola's side are top of the tree considering their record breaking 100 point season.
The rest of the top four is made up of Chelsea and Liverpool, which is a testament to current boss Jurgen Klopp.
The German took over in October 2015 and the club has been transformed, becoming back to back Champions League finalists.
Sheffield United also feature in the top half, as their low game total equals a higher points per game average.
Between 11th and 20th features a variety of teams that the streets will never forget.
Many of them such as Swansea and Blackburn Rovers now find themselves in the Championship but they'll always be remember for a slew of cult heroes.
Stars such as Michu and Morten Gamst Pedersen from the early part of the decade stand out.
West Ham are unfortunate to be 14th considering their point haul of 403.
However, their points per game is far lower than the sides above them.
Blackpool lit the league up in their only season back in 10/11 season but still saw themseelves relegated on the final day.
On the other hand, Aston Villa are back in the Premier League this year but their dismal 15/16 campaign which saw them earn 17 points sees them further down the table.
Unsurprisingly, Huddersfield Town find themselves rock bottom.
The Yorkshire outfit were a modern fairytale story when they earned promotion in 2017 and survived relegation in 2018.
However, they were punching about their weight and were relegated in May.
Despite this, there's no doubting that Manchester City have been the most dominant side in England over the last ten years.
