Poor Ashley Young.
The Manchester United winger-come-wingback decided to take to Twitter on Christmas Day to wish everyone a very merry festive day. Surely he’d be greeted with similar salutations of the season? Wrong.
Merry Christmas to you all, have a great day 🎄 #dontwatchtheshirt 😂 pic.twitter.com/TwzuL0Qkwo

In fairness, the 30-year-old kind of preempted some p*sstaking by making reference to his rather colourful blouse shirt. But that didn’t stop followers making mirth about…well, just about everything.
People criticised his tree…

@youngy18 @paulbienkowski That tree's so lop, it ought to be claiming a pen

Recalled a bird sh*tting in his mouth…

And mostly mocked his daft hat…
@youngy18 £80k a week and you can't get a hat that fits…..

@youngy18 @Alex_Fernandezx you aren't the only one who has trouble finding a hat small enough for your head

@youngy18 You've got your hat on the wrong way round
