LONDON - 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.

LIVERPOOL — Roberto Firmino scored a dramatic late equalizer in his final appearance at Anfield for Liverpool to keep the Merseyside squad's slim chances of a top-four finish in the Premier League alive with a 1-1 draw against Aston Villa on Saturday.

LIVERPOOL — An early goal by Mohamed Salah was enough to give Liverpool a 1-0 Premier League win over Brentford on Saturday that keeps the pressure on fierce rivals Manchester United in the hunt for Champions League football next season.
Before the game got underway, the Liverpool fans loudly booed, whistled and chanted their team's name as the national anthem was played to mark the coronation of King Charles in London earlier on Saturday.
Drop season is on. Liverpool became the first Premier League club to launch their jersey for the 2023-24 campaign.
And boy, they got retro.
The shirt doesn't bring a special pattern or a statement graphic. It's just a simple old red strip with a crewneck and cuffs in white that surely will captivate those who love classic, proper football.
It’s here… and it’s beautiful.
A resurgence in form is unlikely to help Liverpool qualify for next season's Champions League as fourth-placed Manchester United are unlikely to slip up on the home stretch, manager Jürgen Klopp said on Friday.
Liverpool are on a five-match winning streak that lifted them up to fifth in the Premier League, four points behind United who have a game in hand, but Klopp does not expect their rivals to drop points.
