Mathieu Debuchy redeems himself after Twitter boo-boo

Arsenal's Mathieu Debuchy, not so much of a social media guy in the first place, was just trying to be nice when he posted a Happy New Year message on Twitter.

The last thing the Frenchman expected was for Arsenal fans to be unhappy with that.

You see, in the accompanying screengrab of himself, it was clear that the fullback had searched for his own photo on the internet.

The fans, these days a demanding lot, are not so pleased with the lack of effort.

Debuchy swiftly returned to make a last-ditch saving tackle, however.

Thirteen minutes after his original tweet, he posted on Twitter what looked like a selfie, complete with five Happy New Year balloons in the background.

The caption read: "Better?"

The fans certainly appreciated his sense of humour.
