Every premier league club rated & slated by robbie savage as man utd score 1/10

And finally… Headmaster Sav has been compiling his end-of-term reports for Premier League pupils, and some will be feeling the swish of his cane. Manchester United and Southampton, see me in

the detention room; Liverpool, Newcastle and Crystal Palace, go to the top of the class. Here are my scores out of 10 for each club overall in the 2024-25 campaign, in the order they

finished, with my pre-season prediction for comparison. Thank you for all your comments and social media interaction, and have a great summer. 1 LIVERPOOL: 9/10 Phenomenal first season for

Arne Slot in the Premier League, winning the title at his first attempt as Jurgen Klopp’s successor, and yet it could have been even better. I wonder if he regrets that under-strength side

at Plymouth in the FA Cup, poor performance in the Carabao Cup final or the agonising Champions League penalty shoot-out with Paris Saint-Germain. _SAV PREDICTED: 5TH_ 2 ARSENAL: 5/10 Five

years without a trophy or a cup final, fewer points than last season, and they failed to buy a centre-forward when everyone knew they were crying out for one. A huge missed opportunity when

Man City were off the pace in the title race. Massive season ahead for Mikel Arteta. _SAV PREDICTED: 2ND_ 3 MANCHESTER CITY: 4/10 From four titles in a row to no trophies and scrambling to

finish in the top five on the last day of term. A season best forgotten, especially the awful Champions League blow-out - but I make them favourites to be back at No.1 next year. _SAV

PREDICTED: CHAMPIONS_ 4 CHELSEA: 9/10 A trophy, a return to Champions League orbit and the Grand Slam of winning every trophy in Europe. Job done - now can Enzo Maresca build on it? And with

respect, I’m not sure you’d hear Real Madrid bragging about winning the Europa Conference League. _SAV PREDICTED: 4TH_ 5 NEWCASTLE: 9/10 No wonder Eddie Howe has been given the freedom of

the city. He ended the Toon’s 56-year wait for a trophy and he did it the hard way - beating Chelsea, Brentford, Arsenal and Liverpool. Qualifying for the Champions League was the icing on

the cake. _SAV PREDICTED: 9TH_ 6 ASTON VILLA: 7/10 Nearly an unbelievable season, but in the end Unai Emery is back in the Europa League next season - a competition he’s won four times

already. Great run in the Champions League and a poor decision at Old Trafford on the final day may have denied them an encore. _SAV PREDICTED: 8TH_ 7 NOTTINGHAM FOREST: 8/10 They went from

a points deduction and desperate relegation battle to the brink of the Champions League in 12 months. Yes, they had to settle for the UEFA Conference League in the end, but Nuno Espirito

Santo’s side gave fans a great run for their money. _SAV PREDICTED: 15TH_ 8 BRIGHTON: 7.5/10 Missed out on European football by a whisker, and it looks like striker Joao Pedro could be

leaving the Amex. But plenty of promise in Fabian Hurzeler’s first season. And only four clubs scored more goals than the Seagulls. _SAV PREDICTED: 14TH_ 9 BOURNEMOUTH: 7.5/10 A top-half

finish and Andoni Iraola won deserved plaudits for their dynamic football, especially taking Newcastle apart on their own patch and home wins against Arsenal and Manchester City. But losing

Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez at the back will hurt them. _SAV PREDICTED: 16TH_ 10 BRENTFORD: 7/10 They will do well to keep arguably the best front three outside the top six - Bryan Mbeumo,

Yoane Wissa and Kevin Schade - together. But they made light of losing Ivan Toney last summer and the Bees’ recruitment is exceptional. Keeping hold of manager Thomas Frank is imperative.

_SAV PREDICTED: 13TH_ 11 FULHAM: 6.5/10 Nearly, but not quite. They threatened to break into the top six or win the FA Cup but fell short. As long as Marco Silva stays in charge at Craven

Cottage, they will be safe - but they need to break through that glass ceiling. _SAV PREDICTED: 12TH_ 12 CRYSTAL PALACE: 9/10 Generations of fans will always remember winning the FA Cup, the

first trophy in the club’s history, a fantastic achievement. The front three of Eberechi Eze, Jean-Philippe Mateta and Ismaila Sarr may prove too hot to handle but they will have fun in

Europe. _SAV PREDICTED: 11TH_ 13 EVERTON: 7/10 Exciting times for the Toffees, who move into their new stadium in August with the cycle of annual relegation battles broken by David Moyes’

return to the club. They will miss Goodison Park’s history but the blue half of Merseyside is ready to roar again. _SAV PREDICTED: 10TH_ 14 WEST HAM: 4/10 A wasted season. They were never in

danger of going down - but never in danger of winning a cup or getting into Europe. Spent big after appointing Julen Lopetegui last summer and had nothing to show for it. Must do better.

_SAV PREDICTED: 7TH_ 15 MANCHESTER UNITED: 1/10 Worst Premier League season in their history, no trophies, terrible performance in the Europa League final. One of the biggest budgets in

Europe but won only 11 of 38 league games. Nobody could have dreamed it would be as bad as this. Ruben Amorim needs a total rebuild. _SAV PREDICTED: 3RD_ 16 WOLVES: 5/10 Before Vitor Pereira

came in, they were in big trouble and shipping goals for fun. But he strung together six wins in a row and won the hearts of fans by celebrating with them in the pub. Matheus Cunha is off

to United, so that’s a big piece of the jigsaw to replace. _SAV PREDICTED: 17TH_ 17 TOTTENHAM: 6/10 Absolutely dreadful in the league, where they lost 22 games, but Ange Postecoglou won

Spurs’ first trophy in 17 years - even if it was in a competition where they were among the favourites from the outset. If his remit was Champions League football, he’s delivered. _SAV

PREDICTED: 6TH_ 18 LEICESTER: 2/10 I thought they would go down, so it’s no surprise they are back in the Championship. But sacking Steve Cooper made little sense and to go five months

without even scoring a goal or winning a single point at home was diabolical. _SAV PREDICTED: 18TH_ 19 IPSWICH: 3/10 Again, no surprise that they went down - but the Tractor Boys were one of

the biggest spenders in Europe last summer (£120 million) and I expected them to put up more of a fight than just six points from the last available 54. _SAV PREDICTED: 19TH_ 20

SOUTHAMPTON: 1/10 Sorry, but Saints were pathetic. If they hadn’t beaten Derby’s record low of 11 points I would have given them a big fat zero marks, but they managed to beat the Rams’

low-water mark in 2008 by a single point. _SAV PREDICTED: 20TH_ JOIN OUR NEW WHATSAPP COMMUNITY _AND RECEIVE YOUR DAILY DOSE OF MIRROR FOOTBALL CONTENT. WE ALSO TREAT OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS
