Manchester City fans take the Mickey out of Gerard Deulofeu’s scream

SportsJOE

Make no mistake about it, Gerard Deulofeu is a very talented footballer.

But for all his ability, during his time at Everton we’ve noticed that he has a tendency to go down quite easily once in a while.

During Everton’s League Cup semi against Manchester City, Deulofeu was felled by a challenge – drawing a scream that was audible in the television coverage.

When it became clear that the Spaniard was not seriously injured, the Manchester City fans quickly responded with a series of their own screams.

And it seems he’s got a bit of history for letting out the odd scream here and there.

The City fans continued to scream whenever the 21-year-old touched the ball, right up to the point where he was substituted on 67 minutes. Plenty were entertained by it.
