When you're in the public eye, you can't always just come out and say what you're feeling.
The life of a professional footballer is pretty alright we'd imagine but club contracts, endorsements and a little thing called sensitive fans mean they're pretty censored on social media.
If you do want to say something real, you'd better make damn sure it's subtle but Manchester United goalkeeper, David De Gea, has managed to master the trick with the art of sarcasm.
Here's a list of what some modern day footballers - and Willy Caballero - are saying on their Twitter accounts and what we think they really mean.
