There's loads of shite teams, but because they're all at similar levels & only a few set up to defend at all cost, they can make for entertaining matches.
There's 6 points between 18th place & 10th place. That's two fucking wins.
Here's a really nice way of looking at that, if Everton, in 9th, lose their next two, & Swansea & the teams between them win their next two, then Everton sit one point above relegation (I imagine in reality some will play each other, but you get it).
Cos its so close it means its kinda blood & guts matches so can be entertaining, whereas Utd are playing Hodgson football with Real Madrid style budgets.
