1. Chelsea was clearly superior to Manchester United in terms of personnel, which makes you appreciate how amazing of a player Cristiano Ronaldo is.
2. With that said, Chelsea drastically underperformed. They won the league title by 1 point with a last game, over a team that's faced personnel changes and injuries throughout the season.
3. Manchester United has both positives and negatives to take away. I think they were a lot worse than they were last year, especially their defense which was atrocious, yet they came within 1 point of the title. Also, they had PLENTY of opportunities to overtake Chelsea by a significant amount, and they couldn't. That blackburn game killed them. Their goal scoring was significantly reduced this year.
4. The emergence of Nani. I think he's going to improve dramatically this year and move up with Rooney as forwards, and they'll be the best 1-2 punch in the EPL. With the two new signings for Man U, I think they're the heavy favorites to win next year.
