You can be 37 years old, have 20 caps for the Blues, have played under Arsène Wenger or Pep Guardiola... but rely on the advice of a fan on social networks. Now a player of Servette Geneva, in the Swiss championship, Gaël Clichy made the funny experience by scoring from midfield against Sion (5-0). "I got a message on Instagram from a fan who said: think the goalkeeper is advanced! It made me think about it," he smiled afterwards.
Rule number 1: Always listen to your fans 😉

The advice of the supporter, which the club shared on Twitter, was applied to the letter, since Clichy lobbed the doorman of Sion, actually advanced, more than forty meters. Lined up in midfield, the usual left-back scored his first goal with the Swiss club, allowing him to consolidate his second place in the standings, three days from the end.
