Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany has laughed off Lee Tomlin’s mischievous tweets following Boro’s FA Cup giant-killing at the Etihad.
The Boro striker, whose recent form has seen him nominated for the Championship Player of the Month award for January, was a thorn in City’s side during Boro’s 2-0 win last month.
And he recently became a Twitter hit, after posting: “My washing machine was making loads of noise I opened it and Kompany crawled out I must of left him in my pocket #banter”
More than 29,000 fans from clubs up and down the country retweeted Tomlin’s post, with some Man City fans reacting angrily to what they saw as a lack of respect.

But Kompany, who was left floundering in the game by one brilliant Dennis Bergkamp-esque Tomlin turn, saw the funny side.
“It’s a brilliant tweet! I’m not annoyed at all,” the City skipper told the Manchester Evening News.
“If you go through my Twitter line, you get the odd United fan that says a lot more horrible things than that so it is fine.”
