WATCH: Manchester City players read mean tweets and it’s actually hilarious … we promise

Who knew that footballers got grief on social media?

It's come as an awful shock to us but apparently it's not all praise for Premier League stars and Manchester City's players proved just that as they read out a series of mean tweets for the club's official YouTube page. Yaya Toure, Vincent Kompany, Fabian Delph, Eliaquim Mangala and Bacary Sagna all mustered up the courage to read out the abuse volleyed their way online. The overriding theme is harsh Tweeters saying "you're shit" and the City stars frowning their way through it. It certainly makes for amusing watching but, jaysus, Bacary Sagna gets an awful time of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CA_BN9lXJGY
