From Arsenal’s long-awaited title to Bournemouth’s historic European qualification, the supporters’ network has spoken—and their verdicts paint a vivid picture of the year’s defining narratives.\n\nArsenal’s championship, secured under Mikel Arteta, earned a perfect 10\u002F10 from ecstatic Gooners. Defensive solidity, founded on the consistent excellence of David Raya, Gabriel, William Saliba, and Declan Rice, proved the cornerstone. Yet even in glory, frustrations surfaced: Gabriel Martinelli’s solitary league goal and the inconsistency of summer arrival Eberechi Eze, whose demolition of Tottenham was a highlight, but struggled for impact otherwise. The focus now shifts to Budapest, where Arsenal face PSG in the Champions League final—a moment of redemption for supporters like Bernard Azulay, who has battled cancer since 2013 and cherishes every chance to see his club lift that elusive trophy.\n\nBournemouth’s meteoric rise under the now-departed Andoni Iraola was the season’s fairytale. Unbeaten in 17 games, including a win at the Emirates and a statement victory over Manchester City, the Cherries secured European football for the first time. James Hill, a £1m signing from Fleetwood, emerged as one of the league’s best centre-halves, while Alex Scott and Junior Kroupi dazzled. As Marco Rose takes over, the challenge will be retaining stars like Senesi and replacing departed loanee Diakité—all while managing a first European campaign.\n\nAston Villa, fresh from Europa Conference League joy in Istanbul, celebrated a season of big moments built on Unai Emery’s knack for delivering on the big stage. John McGinn’s leadership and all-round game earned near-universal admiration, and Ezri Konsa’s defensive command etched him into folklore. The final-kick winner by Emiliano Buendía against Arsenal—and the Gunners’ subsequent pitch-pounding frustration—was a particularly sweet memory for the Villa faithful.\n\nIndividual stars sparkled across the league. Brentford’s Igor Thiago netted 22 goals in his first full season, instantly becoming a cult hero to the tune of Spandau Ballet. Michael Kayode’s long throws and all-around play had fans dreaming of more. Meanwhile, at Manchester United, new signings Matheus Cunha, “Big Bryan” and Benjamin Sesko injected hope into a transitional season. West Ham added Axel Disasi and Taty Castellanos to bolster their spine, while Wolves secured creative talents Jhon Arias and Fer López to replace key departures.\n\nBut not every move clicked. Chelsea’s costly injuries bit hard, with winger Jamie Gittens’ season ended prematurely—a major blow to their European push. Brentford were left to rue Yoane Wissa’s engineered exit to Newcastle, a move that, if handled sooner, might have seen them push for a Champions League spot. Sunderland’s capture of veteran Granit Xhaka raised eyebrows, with his leadership expected to steer their campaign back on track.\n\nThe season was not without its share of downright strange occurrences. Referee Paul Tierney found himself engulfed in Chelsea’s pre-match huddle in March, an image that quickly became a meme. Everton’s trip to Old Trafford produced a stunning scene when Idrissa Gueye was sent off for slapping his own teammate Michael Keane—a moment of madness that encapsulated a turbulent year for the Toffees. And who could forget the exposure of Hincapié’s backside during Burnley’s clash with the league’s more modest moments?\n\nLooking ahead, the summer transfer window promises significant activity. Arsenal aim to shed deadwood and add dynamism with targets like Bradley Barcola, Morgan Gibbs-White, and Sandro Tonali. Bournemouth face a battle to keep their core together and strengthen for Europe. Villa seek reinforcements to match outgoing players, while Brentford need finished products to replace Wissa and build depth. The likes of Leeds United, though relegated, left an impression with their loud away support, while Noel Gallagher’s early exit from a crucial Manchester City game drew scorn.\n\nAs the final whistle blows on 2025-26, the Premier League once again delivered a spectacle of passion, unpredictability, and human theater. From title celebrations to teammate slaps, the fans’ voice reminds us that football remains an endless source of drama—both on and off the pitch.\n\nBased on reporting from The Guardian.","news","From Arsenal's title to a referee in a huddle and Gueye slapping Keane, Premier League fans review 2025-26's stars, flops, and oddest moments.","326257545712766976","Manchester United","333534750868246529","326135625054949376","Premier League","327054566501650432","Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest","2026-05-23T07:00:21Z","premier-league-2025-26-stars-flops-bizarre-moments","The Guardian","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theguardian.com\u002Ffootball\u002F2026\u002Fmay\u002F23\u002Fpremier-league-2025-26-fans-verdicts-stars-flops-and-funniest-moments","326257546220277760","Chelsea",[79,68,63,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94],"326257549311479808","326255037950988288","326257810427875328","326257545792458752","326257807630274560","326257546459353088","326257546325135360","326257545754710016","326257546153168896","326257545876344832","326257546052505600","326257546258026496","326257546425798656",[80,69,64,96,97,98,99,100,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,108],"Maccabi Tel Aviv","Crystal Palace","Macclesfield","Bournemouth","Southampton","Sunderland","Brentford","Newcastle","West Ham","Wolves","Everton","Manchester City","Aston Villa","Premier League 2025-26: Stars, Flops & Bizarre Moments",[111,140,167,194],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":66,"excerpt":112,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":113,"leagueId":71,"leagueName":72,"matchId":114,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":115,"slug":116,"sourceName":117,"sourceURL":118,"teamId":119,"teamName":120,"teamIds":121,"teamNames":130,"title":139},"Pierre Sage is set to join Crystal Palace after leading Lens to Coupe de France glory.
