HIGHLIGHT

 Luton Town's poor start in the Premier League has put them in the same position as some of the worst teams in history

 Teams like Portsmouth, Norwich City, and Ipswich Town have all had disastrous seasons in the Premier League before

 Luton Town will need to improve their performance to avoid being grouped with these teams in the future

With three defeats out of their first three matches, Luton Town have not made the start to life in the Premier League that their supporters will have been dreaming of. Despite having played a game fewer than almost every other team, they find themselves joint-bottom of the league alongside Burnley and without a point to their name. They will be keen to get their first Premier League points on the board after the international break with a trip to face Fulham at Craven Cottage. Inspired by the Hatters' poor start to their first top-flight campaign in 31 years, here are our top 10 worst teams to ever grace the Premier League 

The 10 worst teams in Premier League histo

Portsmouth - 2009/10 season

Portsmouth players applaud their supporters at full-time.

The writing had been on the wall for Portsmouth for some time before the 2009/10 season got underway. After spending beyond their means over the previous few seasons, they were forced to sell many key players such as Peter Crouch, Glen Johnson, Niko Kranjcar and Sylvain Distin, who weren't adequately replaced. The South Coast side made a dismal start to the season, losing their first seven Premier League matches and manager Paul Hart was replaced by Avram Grant in November. There were also numerous ownership changes throughout the campaign which culminated in Pompey being docked nine points for entering administration, all but sealing their fate. They finished bottom of the league with 19 points (including the deduction) and the only saving grace for their supporters was an FA Cup final, which they lost 1-0 to Chelsea

Norwich City - 2021/22 seaso

Norwich City immediately bounced back to the Premier League in 2021 after going down with little more than a whimper the season before. You would have thought a dismal showing in 2019/20 would have been a lesson learnt for the club about life in the top flight, but seemingly not as the Canaries re-entered the Premier League with arguably an ever weaker squad, after letting important players such as Emiliano Buendia and Todd Cantwell leave. It ended up costing manager Daniel Farke his job and he was replaced by Dean Smith, who was unable to steady the ship and Norwich were relegated again, with a total of 22 points. It's telling that the following season, the Yellows had much more difficulty back in the Championship, finishing in 13th place

Ipswich Town - 1994/95 season

Ipswich Town had been perennial strugglers for the first two seasons of the Premier League and the 1994/95 season was a step too far for them. They made a dismal start to the season, losing 11 of their first 15 matches and manager John Lyall was sacked in early December after more than four years at the helm. His successor George Burley would go on to be a huge success during his eight-year spell at Portman Road but was unable to prevent the Tractor Boys finishing rock bottom of the division with 27 points. Their 93 goals conceded is the second-highest in Premier League history, and most infamously included a 9-0 drubbing at the hands of Manchester United
