Now the curtain has come down on the 2025-26 Premier League campaign, here is my end-of-season review - with a look back to what I predicted in August.
The Story So Far
West Ham United's 2025-26 Premier League campaign has concluded with the club facing relegation from the top division. Following the final matches of the term, a retrospective analysis highlights how the team's momentum diminished significantly as the year progressed. While specific expectations were established at the start of the season in August, the actual results failed to align with those early forecasts, leading to a loss of status for the club. An evaluation of the year's events tracks the overall trajectory of the squad's performance throughout the fixture list, noting that the campaign eventually lost its competitive energy before the demotion was confirmed at the close of the football schedule.
