Comments:

Final league position 2016-17: 12th Leicester City ended the season in the lowest-ever finishing position by the reigning Premier League champions. The Foxes finished on 44 points; the lowest total of a reigning top division champion since Liverpool in 1901-02 (equivalent of 42 points). City lost 18 league games in this season; the most by the reigning top division champions since Ipswich Town in 1962-63 (19). Leicester City manager Craig Shakespeare: "For the benefit of everybody it [the decision on an extended contract] will be sooner rather than later. When I get the phone call, then I'll know. I don't know when that'll be. It's out of my hands. There is no set date, it was just said until the end of the season. The owners are very good business people and I'm sure they appreciate you, me and everybody is waiting and I'm sure we'll get a decision soon."

Final league position 2016-17: 9th AFC Bournemouth finished in their highest-ever league position and had improved their league position in each of last five seasons. Junior Stanislas' goal was timed at 59 seconds. It was the Cherries' 100th goal in the Premier League. They finished the season with an away game for the fourth season in succession. AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe said: "What is next? We'll wait and see. I feel there is a lot of improvement to come. There will be a long summer where recruitment of course will be important, but at the minute let's enjoy what the players have achieved this season and give them plenty of credit. I think we've become more streetwise to the Premier League. It's a challenge for us to improve."
