Spurs top the table if only games this year counted - but what would the table look like if all games from the last two, three or 13 seasons counted? Read on to find out...
And so the curtain falls on another Premier League season. Antonio Conte's Chelsea are champions in his first year in English football.
Arsene Wenger misses out on Champions League qualification for the first time since 1997, while the three sides from the north-east are consigned to the Championship.
But what if the table was not based on the conventional 38-game format? What if the goalposts are shifted and different time spans considered? Sky Sports offers several alternative interpretations on the Premier League table.
No other team has more points than Mauricio Pochettino's side this year. Although Spurs have played one game more than their closest competitors in 2017, this year's winners Chelsea were still six points adrift of their London rivals.
Arsenal's form towards the end of the season sees them make the top four, with Liverpool - who pipped the Gunners to fourth place over the season - seventh.
Swansea's resurgence under Paul Clement has them in eighth, while relegated Hull also experienced a bounce under Marco Silva as they picked up 21 of their 34 points this calendar year.
Of concern to Sean Dyche and Burnley would be their form in 2017 - only relegated Middlesbrough and Sunderland picked up fewer points since the turn of the year.
Pochettino's side can count themselves extremely unlucky over the course of the last two seasons. Chelsea's dismal 2015/16 season sees them 13 points behind Spurs, while Leicester lie in seventh; 31 points adrift.
Over the course of the last two seasons, Spurs have not only scored the most number of goals (155), but conceded the fewest (61), and are one of only two sides to concede fewer than a goal a game.
Despite a disappointing 2016/17 for Arsenal, they make it a north London one-two. Manchester United, so often the kings of the Premier League era, finished sixth this season and this is where they reside in this table.
Of the sides to play 76 games, unsurprisingly Sunderland sit bottom with an unhealthy -54 goal difference.
Crystal Palace fans will also be alarmed with their efforts, while Watford's owners could be forgiven for their hire and fire policy since their return to the top tier of English football.
For entertainment, it has to be Bournemouth. They've been involved in games with the most number of goals (234).
Manchester United have struggled by their standards since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in the summer of 2013. Since then, three managers have tried and failed to return the Premier League trophy.
United average a sixth-placed position since Sir Alex left - some 43 points fewer than Chelsea. Everton have scored more than United in this period and, along with Southampton, prove to be consistent performers with both clubs breaching the 200-point mark.
The 2016/17 season finally saw Sunderland relegated to the Championship. They have flirted with relegation for the past five seasons and finish below Leicester in this table, despite playing 38 games fewer.
Arsenal's board face one of the most important decisions in their recent history this summer, with Arsene Wenger confirming his future will be decided after this weekend's FA Cup final.
Meanwhile, Arsenal fans remain divided on their most successful manager. What is beyond debate is they have gone 13 seasons without lifting the Premier League trophy.
Since the year of the Invincibles, only Chelsea and Manchester United have acquired more points than Wenger's side. Indeed, Chelsea and United are the only sides to breach the 1,000-point mark.
The top six we know today have consistently outperformed their counterparts in this period, with no other side able to surpass the 800-point mark. Only seven teams have featured in every season since 2004/05.
