Despite taking a 5-0 lead into tonight’s Champions League qualifier, Pep Guardiola’s team have taken a beating on social media.

Twitter account @FCSteaua has published a string of tweets accusing the Manchester club of being “Oil City”.

And they even told fans to put their house down on a 6-0 win for the Romanian champions.

"Tomorrow Steaua will beat City," one tweet read.

"There will be more Romanians in the stands than City fans. We will fill the Emptyhad and soar to victory!"

Others were more hurtful for hardened blue fans – listing Portsmouth, Hull, Leeds and local rivals Manchester United as having "more history" than Pep’s men.

The 1986 European Cup winners rubbed more salt into the wounds, tweeting: “Hey Man City! How does it feel to win the Champions League? Oh wait…"

There is no suggestion the Twitter account is officially linked with the club.

City take on the Romanian side this evening.

Leading the two-legged tie 5-0, progression to the Champions League group stage should be routine.

But the future of England goalkeeper Joe Hart could take centre stage – as his move away from the Etihad appears to edge closer.
