Manchester City’s second choice goalkeeper Willy Caballero is celebrating his birthday on Monday 28th September, but there doesn’t appear to be much goodwill from Manchester City fans towards their Argentine goalkeeper following Saturday’s 4-1 thumping at Tottenham.
With the Argentine turning 34, City took the opportunity to invite their supporters to wish Caballero many happy returns… and, unfortunately, it wasn’t exactly enjoyed by some.
Following City’s 4-1 thumping at White Hart Lane, there has been a huge amount of tweets sent to the goalkeeper (no nice ones, either). And on Monday, City invited even more negative tweets when they asked their fans to wish him a happy birthday.
Bad timing for a birthday? may be!
