Liverpool veteran James Milner is the biggest social media butterfly the club has on its books.
In a side packed full of keen social media users, James Milner has to come up trumps as the biggest social media butterfly at Liverpool.
This isn’t judged on the most prolific of the keenest in the replies, I just love how the former Leeds, Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Manchester City man gets around his Twitter profile and the content he produces.
If we wanted, there could be an article every week on his goings on. And to be fair to us, and to you, there pretty much has been.
We’ve seen James Milner measuring his back garden and trimming the lawn with scissors, creating a dream team out of household goods and then scrubbing pebbles as one of his new chores.
The persona that Milner puts out online is by far and away the funniest in the Liverpool squad. It’s all come out of the idea, put forward by everyone else, that the midfielder is the most boring man in football.
Boring James Milner, the Twitter account, was the precursor for this idea and then the real Milly took it and ran.
You’ve got to appreciate that.
While Mohamed Salah and Dejan Lovren dive into each other’s Instagram replies like wildfire, Andy Robertson posts his morning schedule taking the mick out of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson sends kiss emojis like they’re going out of fashion, old Uncle Milly is keeping his standards high.
While football is suspended due to the COVID-19 lockdown, this is the spice of life and it’s helping us all get through isolation with our daily dose of Liverpool content.
So keep on being special, Milner, as you spread your butterfly wings around Twitter and keep us all amused.
