Ultimate League reveals Liverpool are England's top team, followed by Man Utd and Arsenal Liverpool remain the top team in England but Arsenal have overtaken Manchester United into second, according to the Sky Sports Ultimate League, which calculates clubs' average position over the past 50 years. Liverpool topped the 89-team table - which incorporates the 2016/17 season - with an average league position of 3.44, buoyed by their phenomenal success during the 1970s and 80s. Ahead of this season, Manchester United and Arsenal were drawn in second place, but, after Arsenal finished one place above United in fifth this season, the Gunners have overtaken the Red Devils. Tottenham rank fourth, followed by Everton, Premier League champions Chelsea and Manchester City in seventh - with Spurs and City punching above their historic rank. Despite being relegated from the Premier League last season, Aston Villa and Newcastle both made the Ultimate League top 10 in eighth and ninth, respectively. http://www.skysports.com/football/n...ands-top-team-followed-by-man-utd-and-arsenal
Sunderland were basically achieving what is expected of them this season in getting relegated - not underachieving at all. That will make the Mackem fans feel better about themselves.
Especially as it's based on league results over the last 50yrs - guess it somewhat cynically misses out Fredor's Glory Years
Load of crap really, if, you can't do it properly, why do it all. Sky again attempting to change the history of football in this country with a half arsed effort. That said, they finally seem to have acknowledged that football existed pre-1992. FFS get over Fredor or let him back.
So are you saying free fredor? Should fredor be freed or should we keep freedor un-freed or at least keep fredor banned?
Probably, just one of those days. But, I'm saying his name should be banned along with anyone who mentions it. Three strikes and you're out. That seems a fair way of eliminating his influence on threads, even in his absence.
