2010–11 Premier League#Season statistics

On 15 May 2011, West Ham United were the first team to be relegated to the Championship, following a 3–2 defeat away to Wigan Athletic.{{cite web|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/_/id/292859?cc=5739|title=Hammers relegated as Wigan fight on|date=15 May 2011|work=ESPN Soccernet|access-date=24 May 2011|archive-date=14 April 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140414143903/http://espnfc.com/gamecast?id=292859|url-status=dead}} Two more relegation spots were to be confirmed going into the final day of the season, with five teams (Blackburn Rovers, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Birmingham City, Blackpool, and Wigan Athletic) all at threat of the drop. Blackburn secured their top flight status with a 3–2 away win over Wolves. Blackpool were relegated after losing 4–2 to champions Manchester United at Old Trafford, despite having led at one point.{{cite web|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=292873&cc=5739|title=Blackpool down after thriller|date=22 May 2011|work=ESPN Soccernet|access-date=24 May 2011|archive-date=14 April 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140414160926/http://espnfc.com/gamecast?id=292873|url-status=dead}} Birmingham City were also down after Roman Pavlyuchenko scored an injury-time winner for Tottenham at White Hart Lane.{{cite web|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/_/id/293076?cc=5739|title=Pavlyuchenko relegates Birmingham|date=22 May 2011|work=ESPN Soccernet|access-date=24 May 2011|archive-date=26 May 2024|archive-url=https://archive.today/20240526201652/https://www.webcitation.org/6J5PJrKLs?url=http://espnfc.com/gamecast%3Fid=293076|url-status=dead}} Both of these results allowed Wolves to avoid the drop by one point, despite their loss to Blackburn, while Wigan, who were in the bottom three prior to kick-off, extended their Premier League stay to seven consecutive seasons after a 1–0 win away at Stoke City.

The Premier League introduced a cap on the number of players in a squad. From this season onwards, clubs had to declare a squad of no more than 25 players when the summer transfer window shuts, and then again at the end of the January transfer window. Players aged 21 and under could be selected without being registered in the 25.

Also being introduced this season was the "home grown players" rule, which aims to encourage the development of young footballers at Premier League clubs. The new rule required clubs to name at least eight players in their squad of 25 players that have been registered domestically for a minimum of three seasons prior to their 21st birthday.{{cite news |title=Home-grown quota for Premier League |url=http://www.premierleague.com/page/Headlines/0,,12306~1797582,00.html |work=premierleague.com |publisher=Premier League |date=15 September 2009 |access-date=22 May 2010 |archive-date=30 April 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130430212132/http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news.html |url-status=dead }}

All of the Premier League teams submitted their 25-man squads on 1 September 2010 deadline.{{cite web|url=http://www.premierleague.com/page/Headlines/0,,12306~2142220,00.html |title=Premier League clubs submit squad lists |date=1 September 2010 |work=Premierleague.com |access-date=1 September 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100903005609/http://www.premierleague.com/page/Headlines/0%2C%2C12306~2142220%2C00.html |archive-date=3 September 2010 |url-status=dead }}

Twenty teams competed in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the Championship. The promoted teams were Newcastle United, West Bromwich Albion (both teams returning after a season's absence), and Blackpool (returning after a thirty-nine-year absence). This was also Blackpool's first season in the Premier League. They replaced Burnley, Hull City and Portsmouth, who were relegated to the Championship after their top flight spells of one, two and seven years respectively.
