        There's white monkeys also. He can call the fans white monkeys too if they are white and move on. This is not news.

        He can transform that energy to shame those fans by being the best player on the pitch to help his team win. #ItsNotPersonal

        I strongly condemn the act but the problem he spends more time working on social media skills than improving his game on the pitch

        He was referring to abuse on social media, secondly, having black players does not preclude racism for example Lazio
