I know Derby have the worst record with 7 points and all - but there's definitely an argument for Sheff Utd being the worst Premier League side in history. As s**** as Derby were I don't remember them getting spanked with so many heavy losses like this. Just awful - as bad as we were at least it wasn't that bad
Probably more an indication of how big the gulf in quality has become between top and bottom of league since 2008. Also this Sheffield side would be mid table championship at best.
I think it’s a bit of a myth that there’s heaps of quality in the championship, you’d don’t need to be particularly amazing to do well as there’s a lot of very average teams. It’s just a narrative. I think the hard thing about the league is the amount of games, not the quality.
