5 footballers who are completely addicted to social media
Today we live in a day & age where what you post online is the true representation of a person's life. For footballers, they get judged twice over by what they do on the pitch and for what they post on the internet. Sometimes it’s what they post on the net that counts for more than their performances.
Gone are the days when a Tony Adams or a Lee Dixon earned their craft on the pitch, these are times where a Mitchy Batshuayi can do more for his career on the web than at Stamford Bridge.
Regardless of whether we like it or not, social media has changed the dynamics of football forever. With this comes an insight into peculiar behavioural patterns. The internet allows us a deeper insight into the lives of footballers we once had no access to it. Now depending on how addicted an individual is, we can see even more.
Here are 5 footballers that are completely addicted to social media.
#5 Michy Batshuayi
Correct me if I'm wrong but I actually think Mitchy Batshuayi has sent out more tweets than minutes he's played at Chelsea. This season Batshuayi has played 118 minutes for Chelsea, he's tweeted 2699 times. If that doesn't show you where his career is positioned right now, nothing will.
If you go down his timeline you'll see fun, joy and happiness everywhere. Some would put his social media antics down to his eccentric personality, others would say he's just bored. Regardless, the Belgian lets the whole world know what he's thinking through his twitter account, every day.
Whether it's game day or not, the 23-year old is forever tweeting about football, music or sometimes even FIFA 17. Some have criticised the youngster for spending too much time on the internet rather than focusing on his football. However, if Antonio Conte's not going to play to him, he has to keep himself entertained somehow.
