Liverpool striker Fabio Borini admits he loves using Twitter.

The Italian joined many of his teammates on the social media website in January 2013 and quickly amassed thousands of followers - indeed more than 100,000 in total.

He told Liverpoolfc.com: "At the beginning, I wasn't really aware of Twitter and how it works.

"I asked two of my friends to make a Twitter account and manage it for me. After they taught me, I took everything on board.

"There are 100,000 people who follow and read what I write - it's exciting. My friend said that we need to celebrate, but I said: 'It's only 100,000, we need to get more!'

"It's obviously something funny but I don't have aims for that. My aims are on the pitch."
