Manchester United may not be at the top of the English Premier League log, but they certainly are number one on South African Twitter.
Twitter recently released stats on which EPL teams have the most fans and followers on Twitter in every country around the world, compiled into an interactive map.
Each team has been assigned a colour related to their team jersey and you can view the map with all or individual teams and compare numbers between two teams.
In South Africa, Manchester United leads with 23% users being Man U fans, Arsenal comes in second at 20.6% and Chelsea in third at 17.83%. Globally, it seems Chelsea takes the number one spot.
The map was created by data visualisation scientist Krist Wongsuphasawat who looked at each teams Twitter account to determine where their fans are around the world.
