There's nothing like a big moment backfiring on you to bring you right back down to earth after winning the Premier League - but thankfully for Jack Grealish, he seemed too tipsy to care.
The midfielder, 28, has certainly proved he knows how to party over the last few years, so it's no surprise that he was front and centre when the celebrations at the Etihad Stadium began to unfold - even though he was an unused substitute.
Grealish got straight onto gulping minutes after the Blues bagged their record-breaking title following a stellar performance against West Ham, who were beaten 3-1.

We shouldn't really be surprised, seen as though he headed off on an infamous bender after his team won the Treble - and if anything, we should expect him to party even harder now they've exceeded the Premier League hat trick.
Just two points separated Manchester City and Arsenal, with the former ahead by the skin of their teeth as they went into the 38th and deciding match week of the season.
The win meant that it didn't matter what Arsenal's result was, as City finished the season on 91 points, two points ahead of their title rivals - but for those who are curious, they scored a 2-1 win against Everton with a goal in the 89th minute.

But it was a case of too little, too late for The Gunners as they finished with 89 points.
Pep Guardiola's lads have now become the first team in the competition's history to win four back-to-back titles, firmly cementing their place as one of, if not the greatest Premier League side of all time.
The triumph comes just a year after their historic treble win, matching the greatest success of cross-city rivals Manchester United, who won the first ever treble in English football in 1999.
So it's no wonder that Grealish seemed to be three sheets to the wind shortly after the team lifted the trophy.

His teammate Kyle Walker was seen pouring a bottle of booze into his mouth before the midfielder was then seen milling about the pitch with a GoPro while embracing players including Mateo Kovačic, Jérémy Doku and Erling Haaland.
He managed to capture some of the priceless moments that were unfolding with his fellow City stars on the football field before deciding to make sure the merrymaking got off with a bang - prompting him to grab a confetti cannon.
However, it seems that Grealish hasn't got that much experience with the celebratory contraptions, as he suffered quite the awkward moment while trying to set it off.
All I can say is, thank god it wasn't the fate of a gender reveal that he had in his hands.

The Birmingham-born footie ace had a bemused look on his face while trying to figure out how to work the confetti canon, before he was heard asking: "How do I do it?"
Hilariously, Grealish was left extremely startled when all of his fiddling with it paid off and it suddenly exploded.
The player physically jumped as the blue confetti shot out and started raining down in the footage which has gone viral, with social media users describing the clip as comical.

One laughed: "He checked to see if his arms were still there."
Another said: "Bro didn't see that coming."
A third joked: "Blud thought he was shot for a second."
And a fourth added: "Dude was scared!"
The 2023/24 Premier League title means that City have now won eight Premier League titles, and 10 top flight titles in total throughout their history.
The final day of the league also marked the final days for managers Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool and Roberto De Zerbi at Brighton, with both set to move onto pastures new.
