Arsenal mentor speaks out about numerous cases of insulting players on social networks.

Angry comments about football players after unsuccessful matches on social networks are a common practice on the part of many fans, but often such messages are far from constructive criticism and turn into insults.

At Arsenal, goalkeeper Runar Runarsson fell victim to such a hate from his own fans, who made a number of mistakes in the English League Cup quarterfinals against Manchester City, which cost his team participation in the tournament. The head coach of the Gunners Mikel Arteta urged to fight direct insults on social networks against football players.

" Social media plays a big role in shaping the mental health of football players, which has become very vulnerable today. "

" I don’t understand how you can express to a person you don’t know, absolutely everything that you think about him through your phone screen "

" I think we should get serious about this problem.. I hope that you guys from the media also have a big role to play in supporting us and the industry as a whole, "
