Manchester City won their third straight Premier League crown after Arsenal's title challenge collapsed, big-spending Chelsea could only finish in mid-table and 2016 champions Leicester City were relegated.
Following is a summary of the campaigns of the 20 top-flight clubs, listed in order of their final positions:While City trailed Arsenal by eight points as late as mid-March, Pep Guardiola's side so mercilessly sliced through opponents over the final few weeks that it felt as if they had just been toying with their London rivals, like a cat plays with its prey.
There is an argument that Arsenal blew a rare opportunity, with City starting relatively slowly, Liverpool off the pace and Chelsea nowhere, and manager Mikel Arteta will be all too aware that standing still this summer is not an option. Old Trafford has become something of a fortress once again but embarrassing capitulations at Brentford, Manchester City, Liverpool and Sevilla proved that the Dutchman has plenty more work to do.
Yes, Newcastle have spent 250 million on new players since the money rolled in, but it has been spent extremely wisely on the likes of Kieran Trippier, Bruno Guimaraes and Nick Pope. The move paid dividends as Liverpool regained some of their old steel, embarking on an 11-match unbeaten league run that included seven straight wins but a Champions League place still remained agonisingly out of reach.Not even the departure of much-loved coach Graham Potter for Chelsea could derail a big breakthrough season for Brighton & Hove Albion, which ended with a first qualification for Europe and the possibility of millions to come in player transfers.
With stability restored, the 1982 European Cup winners will be setting their sights on the Europa Conference League next season, and with Emery's previous successes in the Europa League with Arsenal and Sevilla part of the reason they hired him, Villa fans have a lot to be positive about.A shambolic season for Tottenham ended without a full-time manager, sporting director, missing out on Europe and with a squad requiring major surgery.
Thomas Frank's impressive but inexpensively-assembled side celebrated big wins over champions Manchester City , Manchester United , Liverpool and Chelsea along the way. In his longest stint at a club since 2014, Silva has laid the foundations for Fulham to retain its top-flight status for the long-term as they look to compete with bigger teams after renovating Craven Cottage and increasing its capacity.Palace were aiming to avoid relegation when Roy Hodgson took the reins in March but the fact that they have earned a comfortable 11th-placed finish is testament to the remarkable turnaround engineered by the former England manager.
Their early-season decision to fire Champions League-winning coach Thomas Tuchel and replace him with Brighton & Hove Albion's Graham Potter proved disastrous - despite more than 500 million pounds lavished on a host of new players - and Potter was himself fired in April. Forwards Raul Jimenez, Hwang Hee-Chan and Diego Costa had a combined output of four league goals as Wolves ended the season with the league's lowest tally of 31 goals -- proof that reinforcements are needed in attack for the coming campaign. Whether those signings will arrive remains to be seen.
They had finished seventh last season and the club record 51-milion purchase of Brazilian Lucas Paqueta held out hopes of another competitive season but it proved anything but, hastening the expected departure of captain Declan Rice.In their first campaign back in the top flight since 2019-20, Bournemouth nearly dropped back into the Championship when they were rock bottom in March before Gary O'Neil engineered a remarkable survival bid for the south-coast club.
There were times when manager Steve Cooper’s position looked precarious but he remains a fan favourite and saw the side into the League Cup semi-finals. They will now stretch their record of spending more years in the top flight than any other club but the team needs radical surgery if they are to avoid going through the same pain next year.Champions seven years ago in one of the greatest stories ever told in English football, Leicester City must now contemplate life in the Championship following their home win against West Ham United that was not enough for safety.
Having won promotion at the end of the 2019-20 campaign playing high-octane, attacking football under the guidance of Marcelo Bielsa, they ended this season with barely a whimper.
