Manchester United defender Chris Smalling posted a light-hearted message on his official Twitter account after he scored in the 4-1 win against Newcastle United at Old Trafford on Saturday, and Red Devils fans were quick to respond.

With Eric Bailly and Phil Jones injured, Smalling started alongside Victor Lindelof at centre-back against the Magpies, but they fell behind and conceded their first home Premier League goal of the season when Dwight Gayle found the net.

However, headers from Anthony Martial and the England international gave them the lead, before second-half strikes from Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku wrapped up another three points for Jose Mourinho's men on their own patch.

After Smalling joked that he was well on his way to competing for the Golden Boot after netting his first Premier League goal since September 2016, Man United supporters took to social media to give their thoughts and they weren't all kind with their comments.

While one simply said "up your game", another was even more cutting and said "you are on your way out of Old Trafford".

Here is just a selection of the Twitter reaction...
