Which Premier League team has been the neutrals' team of the season?

As the Premier League comes to final few weeks with just 7 or 8 games remaining for each teams, the team which would finish top 4 seem to be Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal. Among these four, it’s Liverpool who stands out as the neutral’s team and have a very good chance of winning the league.

Liverpool full-back Glenn Johnson has claimed that neutrals are rooting for his side as the Premier League title race nears its conclusion.But is Johnson right? Can Liverpool claim to have the backing of the neutrals over their rivals?

According to Johnson, "Just to spice things up the neutrals would want to see us win it. Nobody wants the same teams to be winning it over and over again. I guess the neutrals will be packing a punch for us."

The England international might have a point. Manchester City won the title just two years ago, Chelsea under Carlo Ancelotti won the Premier League in 2009/10 and also won back to back titles in 2004/05 and 2005/06. Arsenal last won a title 10 years ago.

Meanwhile, Liverpool haven’t won the title since the 1989/90 season and have never won it in the Premier League era. Change is good, as they say.
