Young Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford has apologised after liking various pictures on Instagram in the wake of the Blues' 3-0 defeat at bitter rivals Arsenal on Saturday.
Gunners stars Mesut Ozil and Hector Bellerin took to Instagram to post celebratory pictures after the match, with Bamford - currently on loan at Burnley - reportedly 'liking' all of them.
After being accosted by a number of angry Blues fans on social media, Bamford took to Twitter in an attempt to explain the situation.
Wth regards 2the Instagram pics I liked, was only liking my friends pics as I've done many a time. No shade or disrespect intended. Sorry!
