This goes down in history as the penultimate Premier League title of Sir Alex Ferguson's era at Old Trafford. With the title, Manchester United broke their tie for 18 top-flight titles with Liverpool. In an interesting match-up, the golden boot was shared by two Manchester rivals, Carlos Tevez (City) and Dimitar Berbatov (United), both tied at 20 goals.

It was the best season for Berbatov in the Premier League during his four-year stay at United. After scoring nine and 12 goals in his first two seasons respectively, Berbatov scored 20 in his third, his highest single-season tally in the Premier League. The highlight of his season was the three hat-tricks he scored against Liverpool, Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham City.

His Manchester City counterpart Tevez, who used to be a part of the Red Devils from 2007-2009 was a completely different beast in his time with the 'Noisy Neighbours'. Tevez managed a tally of 23 goals in his first Premier League season at City, and in his second he scored 20 to share the golden boot.

The following season, manager Roberto Mancini and Tevez fell out due to an incident against Bayern Munich, with Tevez allegedly denying to come on as a substitute. His game time and goal return in the Premier League slowly diminished afterwards.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang enjoyed Unai Emery's first full season at Arsenal - more than many Arsenal fans. The forward secured his first golden boot, and what might be his only in the Premier League during the campaign. Aubameyang came to Arsenal in the January transfer window in 2018 and this was his first full season in the Premier League too.

Liverpool and Manchester City were involved in a mad title race. Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane fired on all cylinders throughout this Premier League season for Liverpool. The Reds ultimately managed the highest points tally without winning the Premier League as City eked out a title win.

The Reds scored a total of 89 goals in the Premier League, of which approximately 50 per cent were scored by Salah and Mane as they netted 22 each. Mane's 22 goals remain his personal best tally of a Premier League season till date.

This was a campaign full of personal milestones for Mane. He overtook Demba Ba's 16 goal Premier League tally, the highest by a Senegalese player. Mane also became Liverpool's record away goal scorer in the Champions League by scoring against Bayern Munich.

Salah also silenced his haters, who after his first season that resulted in a remarkable 32 goals in the Premier League, referred to him as a one-season wonder. His contract was extended at the start of the season and he repaid Jurgen Klopp's faith. This was the Egypt international's second successive golden boot. This season saw Salah become the fastest Liverpool player to reach 50 goals.
