HECTOR BELLERIN has blasted Arsenal FanTV following their criticism of his comment about the YouTube channel.
THE Spain U-21 international, 22, who spoke recently at the Oxford Union, questioned the fan loyalty of supporters who appear on the platform.
The YouTube channel has garnered a cult following in recent years, mainly because of the extreme fury and anger expressed by those appearing on the channel.
Bellerin has claimed that the reaction to his comments shows that some indiviuals cannot take criticisms themselves.
The full-back also insisted he never criticised the Arsenal fan base but rather the platform on which they speak.
He tweeted: "There's some misleading quotes going around.

"At no point have I criticised the Arsenal fan base. I have nothing but respect for all the support we get through ups & downs.
"I just voice my opinion about a platform. Guess some people just can't atke opinion about themselves."
Bellerin has established himself as one of the best right-backs in Europe since leaving Barca as a teenager to enter the Arsenal academy.
He has also earned a reputation for being one of the most free-thinking players in the top flight as he continues to develop on and off the pitch.
And he became the first active Premier League player to speak at the Oxford Union - famed for its history of high profile speakers.
