Arsenal
A decent first season under Unai Emery, in my opinion. Finished fifth, one point off a Champions League spot, and also made the Europa League final where they were beaten by Chelsea. If they can strengthen defensively in the summer they could be a real threat to the top four.
Bournemouth
Will play in the Premier League for the fifth season in a row next campaign after finishing fourteenth this season. Eddie Howe continues to do a great job as manager of the Cherries but faces a tough task in keeping some of his star men this summer... particularly Ryan Fraser.
Brighton
Survived relegation by just a place and two points, which still wasn't enough to keep Chris Hughton in a job. Graham Potter is the man to take over and it will be interesting to see how he fares as a Premier League manager for the first time in 2019-20.
Burnley
Dropped eight league positions from 2017-18 but retained Premier League status by finishing fifteenth. Sean Dyche may be a little disappointed with such a drop but I think it's more than acceptable when you consider their season started all the way back in July 2018 in the Europa League!
Cardiff
Gave it a great shot under Neil Warnock but were relegated after finishing eighteenth. The Bluebirds ended up missing the cut by just two points, but won more games than Brighton and Southampton who survived. If they'd managed to turn three of their twenty-four losses into draws they'd have remained.
Chelsea
A strange season for Chelsea who finished third, lost the Carabao Cup final and won the Europa League. Eden Hazard has already departed for Real Madrid, whilst manager Maurizio Sarri is joining Juventus. I predict we'll be seeing Frank Lampard in the dugout soon, but it won't be plain sailing.
Crystal Palace
Another good season under Roy Hodgson, who guided the Eagles to a twelfth-placed finish. They are more than capable of finishing in the top half next season but that may all be determined by whether or not they can keep hold of starlet Aaron Wan-Bissaka - Manchester United are reportedly keen.
Everton
I was really impressed by how the Toffees finished the campaign. They beat Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United in their penultimate three home games which saw them finish a respectable eighth. If they invest again this summer you can expect to see them challenging for the Europa League at least.
Fulham
Spent a lot last summer to prepare for their return to the Premier League, but never really looked like surviving and were relegated after finishing nineteenth. Scott Parker finished the season as manager and looks like he could do a good job at mounting a challenge to bounce straight back.
Huddersfield
By some distance the worst team in the division. Finished rock bottom with just sixteen points (three victories, seven draws, twenty-eight defeats). It will be interesting to see how they react as Jan Siewart has had a while to get to know his charges - but does he know the Championship?
Leicester
Finished the season strongly under new manager Brendan Rodgers, meaning I'm excited to see how he will fare in his first full season as boss in 2019-20. The Foxes finished ninth and are another side who will be looking to challenge for a spot in at least the Europa League.
Liverpool
Pushed Manchester City all the way but finished second by a single point, labelling them as the Premier League's best ever runners up. However, they were still celebrating at the end of the season after beating Premier League rivals Tottenham 2-0 in Madrid to win the club's sixth European Cup!
Manchester City
Champions! And it was thoroughly deserved despite an amazing title challenge by Liverpool. Pep Guardiola's men won their last fourteen games on the spin, which is an incredible feat. Not only that, but they completed a domestic treble by winning both the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup. Hats off.
Manchester United
The wheels fell off a bit for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after an unbelievable start to life as Manchester United manager, but he got the job on a permanent basis and will look to bring some of his own players in this summer to try and better this season's sixth-placed finish.
Newcastle
Rafa Benitez continues to perform miracles at St James' Park, guiding an average team to thirteenth in the table. However, Mike Ashley's reign as owner may soon be over with a takeover reportedly imminent, and if they decide to back Rafa we could see the Toon break the top half.
Southampton
Finished a bit too close to the relegation zone for comfort, but Ralph Hasenhuttl has definitely made an impact and it will be interesting to see where he looks to strengthen in the summer. He has already added a winger, Moussa Djenepo from Standard Liege, and others should follow soon.
Tottenham
Finished in the top four again but ultimately the season ended in disappointment in that Champions League final defeat to Liverpool. Mauricio Pochettino is definitely building something at Spurs though and I don't think the wait for silverware will go on much longer, provided they can keep hold of him!
Watford
Impressive season from the Hornets, who finished eleventh in the league and made the FA Cup final. They ended up losing 6-0 to Manchester City but the fact that they made it, and the manner in which (winning 3-2 from 2-0 down against Wolves in the semi-final) was so impressive.
West Ham
A solid mid-table finish for the Hammers under Manuel Pellegrini. They have already been recruiting, having signed attacking midfielder Pablo Fornals from Villareal, but that's not without interest in their own players; centre-back Issa Diop is the latest name to be linked to Manchester United after a great debut season.
Wolves
I don't think Wolves or manager Nuno Espirito Santo have been given the credit they deserve. In their first season back in the Premier League they finished seventh and will play in the Europa League in 2019-20. They've done well to sign Raul Jimenez permanently - he scored thirteen league goals.
