LAYTH YOUSIF looks back at the highs and lows of the 2020-2021 Premier League campaign

With the 2020-21 Premier League campaign having drawn to a close, here’s my review of the season.

Team of the season: (4-2-3-1) Ederson; Walker, Dias, Fofana, Shaw; Kante, Foden; De Bruyne, Soucek, Bruno Fernandes; Harry Kane
Subs: Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe, Reece James, John Stones, Jack Grealish, Raheem Sterling, Mason Mount

Goal(s) of the season: Youri Tielemans in the cup final. Edinson Cavani’s chip v Fulham. Eberechi Eze for Crystal Palace at Sheffield United. Callum Robinson’s goal for West Brom to make it 3-1 in their 5-2 victory over Chelsea. Matheus Pereira’s solo goal against Arsenal on the day Brexit-voting Sam Allardyce was relegated for the first time in his career. Alisson’s 95th-minute header against West Brom.
