In the latest in the series of Manchester City players dishing out cracking banter, Raheem Sterling has ripped into his teammate Leroy Sane for the German's tattoo of himself on his back.
The Manchester City winger, who churned in a superb two-goal cameo performance in the 5-0 thrashing of Liverpool at the weekend, where Sterling was questionably suspended, got the massive tat, which features him celebrating against Monaco in the Champions League last 16 last season. Sane scored in both legs but City were knocked out on away goals after the scores were 5-5 on aggregate.

And today Sterling made it clear that he's not his fan of his pal's body art. Taking to Instagram story in a post that has since been deleted, he wrote:
"What a shit tatoo [sic[ "my name is @LeroySane19 and I love myself"
Benjamin Mendy, City's new cult hero and king of social media, would have been proud of, but it's not like he's been lacking in material of late - with the summer signing from Monaco poking fun at Kyle Walker after making a brilliant home debut in the rout over Liverpool.

He posted a picture of the England international dramatically falling to the ground accompanied with the words: "Someone please find the sniper in the stands !! Hahaha Kyle Walker u ok boi ?!"
His post was flooded with responses from the City faithfuls. Here's a few reactions:
We're absolutely loving the big banterous battles between City players. Long may it continue.
