Jose Mourinho admitted they won the league because they were the best. In his words:
"I knew that sooner or later that (they) would be (champions) and if I was in their position I would be very upset if somebody said that they won the title because Manchester United lost against West Bromwich Albion .
"They won the title because they were the best team, because they won a great amount of points. They lost only two matches because they were the best team. That's the reason why they were champions."
Although, United delayed City's premier league title win two weekends ago when they won 2-3 at Etihad Stadium.
