It's been another brilliant football season across Europe, with fascinating stories aplenty gripping supporters over the last nine months. The campaign ended in familiar fashion, with getting their hands on another title, but they were pushed all the way by Mikel Arteta's brilliant side. Paris Saint-Germain also defended their Ligue 1 crown, but there were new champions in Spain and Italy, with Real Madrid and Inter Milan dethroning Barcelona and Napoli respectively.

The biggest story across Europe's top five leagues was, undeniably, Bayer Leverkusen's title win, as they went the entire season unbeaten and became the first team other than Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga since 2012. A 'Big 5 Table' of every team in Europe's top leagues has been , based on points per game, and we've taken a closer look at the standings. Teams ranked 96th-81st Sheffield United were, unsurprisingly, the worst team of the clubs that competed across Europe's top five leagues this season.



The Blades picked up just 16 points, the third-lowest points tally in Premier League history behind Sunderland's 2005-06 side (15 points) and Derby's infamous 2007-08 side (11 points). Italian side Salertinana did not fare much better, collecting 17 points from 38 games. Bundesliga side Darmstadt also amassed that number of points but from four fewer matches.

Collectively, England's basement boys were the worst of the bunch, though, with all three of the relegated teams ending inside the bottom seven of this 96.
