Football is such a beautiful sport and you have to admit that social media has in a way added a bit of spice to the game.
Social media have provided a platform for fans to come together and also for fans of opposing clubs to have a go at each other.
Manchester United fans have caught the wrong side of Chelsea fans who are always prepared for a twitter battle to represent the Blue badge.
A certain argument has sprung up among both sets of fans about Eric Cantona and Eden Hazard, and who is/was the better player between the two.
The argument seems to be more fixed around how many Champions League goals both of the players have scored. United fans took a dig at Hazard who has only scored five goals in the Champions League, while Chelsea fans mocked Cantona who also scored the same number of goals in the Champions League during his playing career.
