Gary Neville has urged Premier League stars to run their own social media accounts and warned that their 'independent thought and authenticity is at stake' after Phil Foden was left furious when a company he uses taunted Kylian Mbappe on his account ahead of Manchester City's Champions League semi-final with PSG.
Former Manchester United defender Neville raised concerns last month about players not posting themselves on social media when he said England stars 'don't sound authentic' after a number of them posted similar messages in wake of a win over Albania.
City midfielder Foden, who scored in Wednesday night's win at Borussia Dortmund to cement Pep Guardiola's men's place in the Champions League semi-final, was left in an awkward position after a Tweet sent sent out taunting PSG forward Mbappe without his approval.
