Top Ten Most Hated Footballers

The unattached defender has gotten under the skin of many rival fans over the years with his cocky attitude and bizarre off-field antics. The weirdest being his candid camera style tv show, in which he popularised the weird saying ‘Merked’. Which is enough to hate him if nothing else. However, more recently his unprofessionalism regarding David Moyes’ ill-fated tenure in charge of United hint at a man who is not as mature as his 35 years should suggest.
