Season round-up:
Using my own unique numbering system, here is my rating of how the Premier League clubs did this season with a very brief summary.
Rankings:
0 – Kesteven
1 – Horrendous
2 – Shocker
3 – Why always me?
4 – Liability
5 – Distinctly average
6 – Pretty, pretty, pretty… pretty good
7 – Gary Neville orgasm
8 – Shares in Kleenex have doubled
9 – Needs boning right now
10 – Babies were born on the back of this performances
Arsenal: 6 - Aim for 4th, got 4th. Anything else a bonus
Aston Villa: 6 - Stayed up with young team. Well, with Benteke
Chelsea: 7 - Any European trophy is decent. Will be nobs out next season
Everton: 7 - Finished above Liverpool
Fulham: 5 - More predictable than Nadal winning the French
Liverpool: 4 - Bit off more than they could chew
Manchester City: 3 - Massively underperformed and cocked up cup final
Manchester United: 8 - Boned the league but robbed in Europe
Newcastle: 4 - Decent Europa run but Depardew struggled in the league
Norwich: 6 - 11th place despite having no striker
QPR: 1 - Got more points than Derby. As good as it got
Reading: 3 - Not surprising considering they are tighter than a certain religious group
Southampton: 6 - Comfortable survival despite shocking sacking of Adkins
Stoke: 5 - Connoisseurs of the beautiful game... at Twickenham. Even more boring than Norwich
Sunderland: 4 - Rubbish apart from one win at St James'. Paolo made things interesting at least
Swansea: 8 - Pretty much a nobs out season
Tottenham: 5 - No trophy and missed out on 4th. Were baled out a lot of times
