Manchester City won their final match of the 2023/24 Premier League season, confirming their place atop the Premier League table for a fourth straight season, the first time that has ever been done before.
The lead had never changed hands when the title has still be on the line going into the final day, and that stayed true as a 3-1 win over West Ham did the business thanks to a brace from Phil Foden and a third from Rodri.
Arsenal gave it a good fight, as Mikel Arteta's side squeaked past Everton by a 2-1 score, but it wasn't quite enough to see out the chase, finishing two points adrift.
The Gunners still managed to finish a close second, snatching a place in the Champions League next year alongside Arsenal and Aston Villa, and Tottenham earned a berth in the Europa League with their fifth-placed finish. Chelsea's sixth-place finish is good enough for a place at least in the Europa Conference League, but it could be elevated to the Europa League should Man City win the FA Cup, which would bump Newcastle into the Europa Conference League.
At the bottom of the table, Sheffield United, Burnley, and Luton Town were relegated to the Championship, as both Everton and Nottingham Forest manage to survive despite points deductions for financial breaches.
The Sporting News updated the table below all season long, as the 2023/24 season came to a dramatic conclusion.
