Manchester City championship, Ronaldo’s return and Arsenal’s failure: the results of the season in the Premier League

The last campaign in the Premier League has become one of the most interesting in several years. Until the last round, the struggle continued on all fronts – for the championship, and for European cups, and for survival. Liverpool and Manchester City had a great end to the season. The champion was determined literally in the last minutes of the final matches. But there were many other interesting things as well. More on this later.

Top scorers of the season

One of the top scorers in the Premier League last season is Mohamed Salah. The Liverpool winger scored 23 goals. This is his second-best career scoring record. More Egyptian scored only in the 2017/18 campaign. It was the footballer’s first season with the Reds and he immediately scored 32 goals. The Merseysiders have already won the League Cup and the FA Cup, reached the Champions League final and pursued Manchester City in the Premier League to the last. Salah was and remains one of the key players of Liverpool.

The second top scorer of the last Premier League season is Son Heung-min. Like Salah, the Tottenham winger has chalked up 23 goals. At the same time, the Korean scored all his goals from the game, and the Egyptian had 5 accurate shots from the penalty spot. Son had a very good season. The Korean took the title of the team’s top scorer from Harry Kane and helped the Spurs reach the Champions League next season. Although the most important aspect in this regard was, of course, the appointment of Antonio Conte.

The best goalkeepers of the season

Alisson and Ederson had 20 shutouts each in the last campaign. Liverpool and Manchester City were the best teams in the Premier League last season, so it would only be fair for the Brazilians to share the title of best goalkeeper. At the same time, Alisson conceded 24 goals, and Ederson – 26. It is also worth noting Hugo Lloris. The Tottenham goalkeeper has kept 16 clean sheets and made a significant contribution to Spurs’ success in the last campaign. True, so far only 4th place in the Premier League is considered a success for the London club, which clearly does not suit Antonio Conte.

Return of the season

Cristiano Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United was one of the big news of the Premier League last season. For the sake of moving to Manchester United, the footballer left Juventus. The expediency of returning the Portuguese to Old Trafford is still being discussed. However, statistics say that everything was not in vain. Ronaldo scored 18 goals in the Premier League, becoming the third top scorer in the league. A good performance indicator for a 37-year-old striker.

The future of the Portuguese remains a debatable issue. It is unlikely that Cristiano is attracted to the Europa League, where Manchester United entered the next season. On the other hand, the club is encouraged by the appointment of Erik ten Hag as head coach. The specialist, he said, is counting on Ronaldo.
