That delay, however, lasted only one week after Manchester United (22-5-6) were indifferent offensively in a stunning 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford to the Baggies that marked just their second defeat at home to a last-place team in the Premier League era.
Speaking after Saturday's 3-1 win over Tottenham, the 47-year-old gave all the credit to his players.
Jay Rodriguez headed in a 73rd-minute winning goal to seal only a second win since August and allow City to clinch the title without kicking a ball. Vincent Kompany did, with images showing the City captain celebrating at his in-laws' house where he was having dinner.
"Champions! What a terrific feeling! So happy to be able to share another trophy with our incredible fans!" "I knew that sooner or later that would be and if I was in that position I would be very upset if someone said they won the title because Manchester United lost", he said.
"I won eight titles and I am not (over) the moon because I won against Manchester City", he added.
Guardiola is the first Spaniard to win the English title.
"They always had time to organise themselves". I have been lucky to win three but so many I have missed as well.
"They won because they were the best team and lost only a few points".
He said: "Probably because I have won eight championships I was not over the moon with the victory against them, because that doesn't make me feel super happy".

They have equaled the record for quickest title success held by United's 2000-01 team, winning the league with five games remaining.
"We did it! An fantastic journey to get here".
"It doesn't take a genius to tell us Manchester City are playing scintillating football right now".
City have unquestionably been the best team in England but their status has been undermined by their Champions League exit.
He said: "We know we have to compete until the last week".
United pushed numbers forward in the closing stages, but Foster never really looked in danger of being tested again as United succumbed to a defeat that was celebrated by the blue half of Manchester with even more vigour than usual.
