MANCHESTER UNITED fans heaped praise on their social media admin after a tweet subtly trolling Arsenal.
The Gunners received plenty of criticism last week after tweeting a video of their players seemingly failing to acknowledge a mascot as they signed a shirt for her.
Inexplicably Arsenal saw fit to post the clip, captioning it: “Making memories with our mascots ❤️”
Ahead of today’s FA Cup semi-final, United posted their own video of players high-fiving their mascots on the way to the dressing room.
They also captioned it: “Making memories with our mascots ❤️”
Red Devils fans noticed the sly reference to Arsenal’s post.

While another United fan added: “Admin I see what you did there.”

SunSport columnist and Talk TV host Piers Morgan was among those to blast Arsenal for the clip.
He tweeted: “Come on guys, at least one of you say hello to her?!!”
After the viral clip sparked much debate, talkSPORT host and avid Arsenal fan Laura Woods admitted that it was a bad look.
But she also moved to add some more context to the debate after speaking with the club.
She said on talkSPORT Breakfast: “I agree, it doesn’t take a lot just to acknowledge somebody with a smile. I think that video is quite symptomatic of football and footballers now.”
