People loved James Milner’s joke about watching England

He's really flipped this meme on its head.

James Milner is a strange footballer. When he broke through at the age of 17, he was the next big thing. And he has gone on to have a long, successful career at Leeds, Newcastle, Aston Villa, Man City and Liverpool. But for a long time, he was derided as a boring player, who did nothing but work hard and put in the occasional cross. This sparked a meme and a parody account that painted him as the dullest player in the world. Someone who gets excited to do their ironing on a Saturday night. Of course, there is much more to James Milner. And since he joined Twitter, he has transformed the meme, he's owned the insult. His latest tweet is a great example, as he embodies the parody to watch England vs Panama. https://twitter.com/jamesmilner/status/1010852992197775365?s=12 You can only respect his commitment to banter. https://twitter.com/mo_masterclass/status/1010854026081112064 https://twitter.com/waldie_callum/status/1010858700003737603 https://twitter.com/dyke_jamie/status/1010859373738983424 https://twitter.com/richie0789/status/1010859217245364224 https://twitter.com/Grasy1690/status/1010857785079291904
