He’s not a bad player the Italian, but it wasn’t necessary from Arsenal when they had obvious other needs.

Biggest moment: Crystal Palace winning the FA Cup

Quite simply what football is all about.

Team of the year: David Raya; Daniel Munoz, Nikola Milenkovic, Virgil van Dijk, Marc Cucurella; Alexis Mac Allister, Bruno Guimaraes, Declan Rice; Mo Salah, Bryan Mbeumo; Alexander Isak

Best manager: Arne Slot

Worst manager: Julen Lopetegui

Best breakthrough season: Morgan Rogers

Biggest disappointment: Premier League teams against PSG

Best transfer: Nikola Milenkovic

Worst transfer: Nico Gonzalez

Biggest moment: Rodri’s injury

Team of the year: Raya; Timber, Milenkovic, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Rice; Salah, Wissa, Isak

For all the impressive work done by some of the Premier League’s surprise packages this season, it’s hard to look past dominant champions Liverpool.

Rodri’s September injury accelerated their decline, and his return could yet be one of the factors when the time comes for end-of-season assessments 12 months from now.

Best manager: Arne Slot

It is hard to look past a man who wins the title in their first season in the Premier League despite having made no major signings.

For me, no one has done that better than Nuno Espirito Santo, doubling Nottingham Forest's points tally from last season, a Premier League first.

Worst manager: Ivan Juric

I liked him in Italy but sorry, you can't escape his abysmal results.

Best player: Mo Salah

Talismanic.

Best breakthrough season: Ryan Gravenberch

A lesson in not judging players too early.

Chelsea paid £30m for 254 minutes of football (check if he plays on Sunday)

Biggest moment: Liverpool 2-0 Manchester City

The power truly shifted that day.

Team of the year: Sels; Munoz, Milenkovic, Van Dijk, Hall; Mac Allister, Tonali, Rice; Salah, Isak, Mbeumo

Best manager: Arne Slot.

Boring answer, but anyone who tells you they thought he’d win the league in his first season, with Federico Chiesa as the only summer signing is lying.

Worst manager: Ruben Amorim.

I bought into the hype, but it’s been a car crash so far – United’s squad is poor but he should’ve done far better and there have been some indefensible decisions along the way.

Best player: Mohamed Salah.

He’s tailed off a little of late – who can blame him?

A colossal waste who epitomises Chelsea’s buy now and question later policy.

Biggest moment: James Tarkowski's last-minute equaliser vs Liverpool.

A wonderful bit of unfiltered raw emotion in the last Merseyside Derby at Goodison Park.

Team of the year: Sels; Livramento, Milenkovic, Van Dijk, Kerkez; Mac Allister, Rice, Rogers; Salah, Mbeumo, Isak.

Best manager: Arne Slot

Winning PL in first season is not to be sniffed at although if Nuno secures top-five, he’s my manager of season.

Worst manager: Julen Lopetegui

Shocking, should never have landed the job, wasn’t an upgrade on David Moyes.

Best player: Mo Salah

Slowed down but in the thick of it, Salah provided big moments and put huge numbers on board again.

Best breakthrough season: Liam Delap

Always been highly rated but cracked the Prem to prove he belongs at this level.

Biggest disappointment: Man Utd

Ridiculous season having spent big again last summer.

Best transfer: Nikola Milenkovic

Bargain, colossal at the back for Forest, incredible business.

Worst transfer: Sterling to Arsenal

Spent a lot of time contacting people about this deal on deadline day and it was effectively much ado about nothing, really poor for all parties.

Biggest moment: Palace winning FA Cup

Not Prem related but a monumental achievement and underdog story that restores your faith in football.

Team of the year: Sels; Munoz, Van Dijk, Milenkovic, Kerkez; Mac Allister, Rice, Gibbs-White; Salah, Mbeumo, Isak.

Best manager: Oliver Glasner

I know Arne Slot won the title in his first season but Oliver Glasner won Crystal Palace’s first trophy after 164 years.

Worst manager: Ivan Juric/Russell Martin

Take your pick at Southampton but they had no chance of survival after one win in 16 under Russell Martin.

Best player: Mo Salah

Honorable mention to Alexander Isak but Mo Salah has been different class.

Best breakthrough season: Nikola Milenkovic

The Serbian centre-back has been an outstanding signing for Nottingham Forest.

Biggest disappointment: Chelsea.

A team of inexperienced players with an inexperienced manager.

Ivan Juric endured a horror show at Southampton

Best transfer: Dean Huijsen.

Bought for £13m from Juventus and sold for £50m to Real Madrid after an excellent season at Bournemouth.

Worst transfer: Raheem Sterling.

Arsenal desperately needed a goalscorer.

They took the Chelsea winger on loan and he scored one Carabao Cup goal in 27 appearances.

Biggest moment: Liverpool 2 Man City 0 February 23.

The official changing of the guard at the top of the Premier League.

Best manager: Arne Slot

Liverpool fans won’t like it but the fact that the Dutchman has won the title in his first season in England indicates that Jurgen Klopp might not have been the genius they claimed.

Worst manager: Ruben Amorim

An easy conclusion given that Amorim himself reckons he’s the worst manager in United’s history.

Best player: Virgil van Dijk

The Kop captain has been the rock on which the title success has been built.

Best breakthrough season: Myles Lewis-Skelly

It’s always great to see a talented young player emerge at the club he supports.
