#3 Arsenal | 2003-04 season
Arsene Wenger assembled one of the greatest Premier League teams of all time for the 2003-04 season, and achieved a feat that has never been repeated since.
The 2003-04 Premier League season will go down in the history books, as Arsenal remained unassailable throughout the course of the season. Manchester United put up a courageous fight for the title, but the Gunners stayed unbeaten in all of their 38 league matches. “The Invincibles” won 26 and drew 12 of their Premier League matches, accumulating 90 points in the campaign.
The Arsenal squad contained some of Premier League’s greatest-ever recruits, including Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp, Robert Pires and Freddie Ljungberg, to name just a few. Henry netted 30 goals for the season, followed by Pires with 14 goals. Dennis Bergkamp was exceptional in his role as a playmaker, with a direct involvement in 11 goals (four goals, seven assists) in the Premier League season.
The elite forwards were supported exceptionally well by the men behind them. Patrick Vieira was a one-man midfield dominator for the Gunners and remains one of world football’s finest holding midfielders. Kolo Toure, too, exhibited some of his best football in the historic 2003-04 campaign.
#2 Manchester City | 2017-18 season
The 2017-18 season laid down an astonishing benchmark in Premier League football, as Manchester City became the first team to score 100 points in a single season.
Pep Guardiola-led Manchester City showcased some exhilarating and breathtaking football throughout the 2017-18 season, as they broke several records along the way. The Cityzens now hold the Premier League record for most goals scored (106), most wins (32) and most away wins (16) in a single PL season.
Kevin De Bruyne was at his creative peak and was perfectly complemented by Sergio Aguero at his lethal best, as the Argentine notched up 21 goals in the Premier League season. Conceding a mere 27 goals in the season, Manchester City registered 32 wins, four draws and lost only two Premier League fixtures.
The Cityzens won the title by a 19-point margin over arch-rivals, Manchester United in second place, a record for the biggest title-winning margin in Premier League history.
#1 Manchester United | 1998-99 season
Manchester United became the first and only English team to win the elusive European treble when they lifted the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup titles in the 1998-99 season.
The Red Devils joined an exclusive club of only seven European teams to have achieved the feat. While many English teams have come and gone since, none have managed to match the incredible feat of Sir Alex Ferguson’s men. Manchester United’s midfield of David Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Roy Keane in the 1998-99 season is arguably the greatest-ever in the Premier League era.
Manchester United were defensively solid as well, with the likes of Jaap Stam, Dennis Irwin and Gary Neville sitting in front of Peter Schmeichel's goal. Two of Premier League’s greatest managers, Arsene Wenger and Sir Alex Ferguson, were locked in a tactical battle throughout the 1998-99 Premier League campaign.
Manchester United emerged as the Premier League champions that season, finishing just one point above Arsenal. While the 2008-09 United squad were more emphatic in their manner of victory, the 1998-99 squad will go down as one of English football’s greatest-ever.
