The 2007/08 summer transfer window was dominated by the top clubs as Fernando Torres moved to Liverpool while Manchester United strengthened their side by welcoming Nani, Hargreaves, Anderson and Tevez to the club. Arsenal bolstered their attacking options by signing Eduardo after their all-time top scorer Thierry Henry departed following eight years in north London.

Several managers failed to take their clubs on the right path which saw eight teams replacing their managers with five of them changing their managers twice in quick succession.

One of the key changes saw Chelsea parting ways with Jose Mourinho as he was forced to end his second spell at the club following a crisis meeting with the board of directors. Long-standing differences with the club's owner, Roman Abramovich, had re-emerged so strongly that they had forced him to take the drastic step of leaving the club.

At the end, It was Manchester United who edged out Chelsea to win the Premier League for 10th time. Cristiano Ronaldo was their star of the season as the Portuguese international banged in 31 goals during the course of the league.

At the other end of the table, Derby county recorded the worst season as they managed to win only a single game while picking up a mere 11 points at the end of the season.
