#4 Stephan Bywater
When you’re a part of a team that has the least amount of points in Premier League history, chances are you’re not very good. That’s certainly the case for former Derby County goalkeeper Stephan Bywater, who featured for numerous clubs over the course of his career.
The likes of Rochdale, Wycombe, West Ham, Hull, Coventry, Derby, Ipswich, Cardiff, Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall, Gillingham, Doncaster, Burton Albion and even the Kerala Blasters have all had the unfortunate pleasure of having Bywater in goal for them and at least half of them would have been glad to see the back of him.
Despite his many clubs, Bywater will likely be remembered for his time at Derby County where he was a part of the infamous 2007/08 season where Derby only managed 11 points and conceded 89 goals, the most for a team in a 38 game season in Premier League history.
What makes it even worse was that Roy Carroll, who’s also on this list, eventually replaced him! Bywater may only have 24 Premier League appearances to his name, but after conceding 49 goals in that time, it’s easy to see why he’s rated so poorly.
No matter what he did, he always managed to do it badly. He didn’t really make mistakes because he never got close to the ball to make a mistake at all, instead, he would just let the ball fly past him into the back of the net. Bywater will go down as a Premier League legend, but for all the wrong reasons.
