Ten most hated footballers in the world, featuring Arsenal flop & former Chelsea duo

7) Lee Cattermole (Sunderland)

Quite simply, a real thug of a player. Sunderland’s Lee Cattermole has a ridiculous red card record in his career so far and just can’t be relied upon to keep his cool. Once regarded as a promising English youngster, the 26-year-old midfielder is nothing more than an over-rated and unreliable hot-head on the pitch now, with some ugly off-the-field incidents and arrests to his name as well.
