PREMIER LEAGUE - United trolled over Fellaini tweet gaffe
Social media can be a tough place. One misplaced tweet or post, and the internet won't let you forget it.
Manchester United were reminded of this last night, when they congratulated midfielder Marouane Fellaini on helping Belgium to beat Andorra and qualify for Euro 2016.
The only issue was Fellaini didn't actually play - he spent the entire match on the bench.
Another #mufc star has helped his country reach Euro 2016 - congratulations to @Fellaini, who was an unused sub in Belgium's win in Andorra.

Now we all know what they mean - after all Fellaini has helped Belgium qualify with some important goals in their campaign, but did that matter one bit to Twitter? Not at all.
@ManUtd @Fellaini So then he didn't help...

@ManUtd @Fellaini Neymar helped Brazil win the World Cup in 1970 although he was unused as he wasn't born yet.
