Fans make harsh jokes about Higuain being ‘fat’ against West Ham

This is a tad harsh, no?

Despite turning 29 this year, Juventus were happy enough to part with £75million to bring Gonzalo Higuain in from Napoli a couple of weeks back. West Ham fans got a chance to see him in the flesh on Sunday afternoon as Juve played a preseason friendly against West Ham in their new stadium. Admittedly, he may not have been at full fitness entering the match but it seems like a massive leap to use the word 'fat' when describing Higuain's appearance during his run out in London. During the game, the commentator noted that Higuain looked slightly out of shape. Supporters weren't quite so polite, and took the opportunity to have a go at the 28-year-old. https://twitter.com/ElSpanishGooner/status/762294920849813504 https://twitter.com/MartialAce/status/762275910439440384 https://twitter.com/Arsemickey/status/762275972712464384 https://twitter.com/LanaDawood/status/762276156712386560 https://twitter.com/hazieerulHarun/status/762277151080980480 https://twitter.com/MUFC_linkup/status/762278407723810816 https://twitter.com/md_laolu/status/762278633625030656 https://twitter.com/GrandeZizou/status/762279426063204352 https://twitter.com/LanaDawood/status/762285457040412673 https://twitter.com/SSCNAMERICA/status/762288376598794240 https://twitter.com/SundayChants/status/762295780183080960 https://twitter.com/DwayneBraie/status/762297384693039104 The internet can be a very harsh and unpleasant place. thumbnail_SNAPCHATUK
