Match of The Day, program BBC yang dihosting oleh mantan pemain Timnas Inggris, Gary Lineker, juga menyoroti followers Marselino, bukan posisi bermain, caps, dan sebagainya.

Beberapa pengikut program itu mempertanyakan.

Why is it You are talking about their social media followers, not their football skills or whether they are players entrusted to them by the club owner?

More BBC journalists who can't write English. Since when has a club been anything other than a single entity? Pedantic, moi?

This is how bad the media has got he has 3.9 million instagram followers nothing about his position stats or how many caps he has

Why don't you put the name of the club in the headline. You're the BBC not some click bait merchants.
