On Saturday, Stoke City beat Aston Villa 2-1 at the Britannia Stadium, with Marko Arnautovic scoring both goals for the home team, while Leandro Bacuna hit the net for the Villans.
The Potters, therefore, were entitled to make a joke, with Villa’s defeder Joleon Lescott being the victim. The 33-year-old came under criticism when he posted a picture of a £121,000 Mercedes on his Twitter account just one hour Villa’s 6-0 defeat against Liverpool.

Lescott later claimed that he sent the post by mistake, when he was driving and his phone being in his pocket. And exactly that made Stoke poke some fun at the defender during the match.
21- ‘@JoleonLescott he’s got a new car’ is the chant from the Villa fans in the away end #SCFC 0-0 #AVFC

Apologies for that tweet, it was sent from our pocket 😉
