The League of Hate results confirm that Manchester United are slightly more detested than Liverpool

Have you ever wondered who the most hated team in the Premier League is?

There are a number of top contenders for the award in the annual League of Hate poll, conducted by the Manchester Evening News and its sister titles which includes the Daily Mirror. The survey began earlier this month and was aimed towards the 2016/17 season, thus including promoted sides Burnley, Middlesbrough and Hull. Unsurprisingly none of those teams made the top ten as that was reserved for the more divisive sides in the league. Chelsea came out on top, with Manchester United hot on their heels as runners-up. Liverpool got third spot while Manchester City's fourth-place finish likely stems from their recent wealth. People have absolutely no issues with Leicester or Bournemouth though, which is easy to understand as who doesn't love an underdog story? Here are the results in full, going from the most hated to the least. 1) Chelsea 2) Manchester United 3) Liverpool 4) Manchester City 5) Arsenal 6) Tottenham 7) Stoke 8) West Ham 9) Sunderland 10) West Brom 11) Crystal Palace 12) Everton 13) Hull 14) Middlesbrough 15) Swansea 16) Southampton 17)Watford 18) Burnley 19) Leicester 20) Bournemouth
