The negative teams in the league

This season, the Premier League has been incredible to watch and that is down to many teams, which have decided to play the positive way rather than stick with one point tactics, or rely on a freak moment like Mertesacker (defender falling) to get anything from the game.

In my opinion, i consider Liverpool and Sunderland to be the only teams which have been more negative in their football this season.

Wolves haven't been that bad. They've actually attacked well at moments

To be honest. Its Liverpool. Their tactics and the whole attitude is so negative. This has nothing to do with football and its painful to watch.

No I dont think its Everton. They beat City and Chelsea at home. They cant be that worse.

I wouldn't say Liverpool are negative, they're just awful at creating meaningful chances against the big teams.

for pretty much first half of the season we were dominating game having atleast 20 shots a game but doesnt matter if you cant score a goal

I dont mention Sunderland or Stoke because they are dreadful each season and they are consistent at that level.

Have to admit, it's been a real joy to see teams like Swansea and Norwich holding their own in the league. West Brom have maintained an attacking ethic, and it looks to be paying off. Sunderland are getting better now O'Neill's there, but for Szczesny yesterday they'd have scored more than once. Everton have never been a team that's been dire to watch I feel, they produce some nice stuff.

Stoke, QPR, Villa and Liverpool are probably the dullards of the EPL.

Cannot believe someone said Wigan

They are rubbish, yes, but do not sit back and defend.
Bolton are another team who like to attack, and play out and out wingers.
Even Stoke on a good day play some decent football in between the long throws.

Liverpool and Aston Villa are the real bores.
