Was there for both the Aguero and Vinny goals. Different seasons, different contexts, both unreal and I feel so privileged to have experienced both live BUT you can't dismiss the greatest premier league (and arguably top-flight football) moment there has ever been. I was in absolute bits. I'd pay serious money to experience that feeling again.
 
I think it’s unfair to include 11/12 cos that wins hands down.
Take that out and you have an interesting discussion.
In that case I would say:
17/18 just ahead of 18/19
Satisfying to beat Liverpool but I enjoyed the run from September to jan/feb in 17/18 more than the tension of 18/19 which just felt draining.
18/19 made me develop a deeper hatred of Liverpool, their fans and the city than I had before
 
We’ve been lucky to have 2 where every game leading up to the last day was a MUST win, the 6 games to win the first PL then the 14 game winning run to beat Liverpool
Every game coming up you’re waiting for with the nerves and tension of a cup final, then the way you celebrate each goal and result after those wins
It’s sort of torture but games having that much riding on them are what footballs all about for me
 

All are brilliant in their own way, but for me, it has to be the one secured on this day nine years ago.

For the fantastic football we played, especially at the start of the season.

For the five we put past Spurs and the Sick Swan.

For the recovery of an eight-point deficit in four games.

But most of all, for the final day, when we experienced every emotion possible and the way we finally won it.

It has to be 2011/12.

While I love/appreciate every title we win (cos WWTWWWS (We were there when we were shit)) the 2011/12 title win has almost ruined everything in football for me.

As I said, I will always appreciate anything we ever win, but, that title......

To win the league
On the last day of the season
With virtually the last kick of the season
Pipping your rivals
In fergie time
On goal difference
With the goals scored against them at their place
After being 8 points behind with 5 games to go....

I defy anyone to beat that

Playing your direct rival last game and scoring in the last minute of the last game to be level on points and GD and just win of goals for and win it away at their ground and get the trophy there on a Friday night in an delayed game after the season has finished for everybody else, probably beats it.
 
I think the 13/14 was the funniest. Because we had games in hand for a long stretch of the season so we looked further back than we were, and then when we caught up finally, Liverpool beat us but then they bottled it. So we ended up being in the lead for only the last two weeks of the entire season, as if we'd stolen it from them.
 
For me it’s 2012. All those years of waiting, hoping, being disappointed, being ridiculed, being abused but staying loyal waiting for the day we could hold our heads up high. Then we go and win it in the most dramatic way possible - now it was the perfect way (but never again like that please!) as it made the world notice and gave us the greatest PL moment ever.

I could go on but 2012 Is it. That day changed things and I’ve written about the homecoming/trophy parade that took place today (14th May) because I think that added to it all. Here’s my free flashback article talking about the homecoming & describing the scenes:

 
in terms of the one that felt the best, you have to say 11/12, that was simply unmatched in terms of euphoria and emotion once we had won it. But in terms of the overall season enjoyment, i'd probably say 17/18 because we absolutely pissed it and it was probably the most relaxed a fan could ever be in a title winning season
