The Liverpool midfielder channelled his inner rapper and trolled a fan back with 'Stan' lyrics, after the Twitter user called him out for not replying to his question.

The exchange began when Twitter user Lee Barker asked Milner where he could buy some 'lovely under shorts' from and included a picture of a Liverpool No.7.
It was followed up with a hilarious tweet that called out the footballer for not replying, but cleverly used the lyrics from Eminem's song 'Stan'.
In good humour, Milner replied with more lyrics from the hit-song and won over the Twitter faithful by dropping a bombshell that the picture was, in fact, of Luis Suarez not of him.
Fans lapped up the witty response and within four hours, the Liverpool No.7 had racked up ten thousand retweets and 42,000 likes.
The Twitter user's follow-up tweet used lyrics directly from Eminem's song, changing 'package' for 'tweet'.
He said: "Dear Mister 'I'm Too Good To Call Or Write My Fans'. This will be the last tweet I ever send your ass.
"It's been six months and still no word, I don't deserve it?"
Milner shot back with reference to song, but put his own twist on it, his witty response said: "Dear Lee, I meant to tweet sooner but I just been busy.
"Why are you so mad? Try to understand that I do want you as a fan... but you're asking the wrong number 7 #damn."
Milner had the last laugh with his witty reply
It's not the first time that the versatile midfielder has won over fans on Twitter.
Despite only being on the social media platform for a year, the footballer has won legions of fans by being self-deprecating and poking fun at the idea that he is 'boring James Milner'.
He has proved that he is anything but.
Fans loved Milner's reply, with one user claiming he had already one Twitter for February.

The midfielder missed out on Liverpool's 1-1 draw against Leicester on Wednesday, as he saw red in his previous game.
Milner was sent off against Crystal Palace after picking up two yellow cards, but could return to action on Monday when Liverpool travel to the London stadium to face West Ham.
