Football clubs, will they ever learn.

Manchester City's Bacary Sagna became the latest player to have their Twitter question and answer session descend into chaos, mainly due to aggrieved Arsenal flooding in questions for City's new "bench-warmer".

Sagna has been battling with Pablo Zabaleta for the starting berth at right-back for City, meaning he is no longer the automatic choice he was during his seven years at Arsenal.

Fellow City player Jesus Navas, plus Aston Villa's Tom Cleverly have also had Twitter Q&A's ruined in recent weeks.
