Sean Cox's brother 'shocked' by Manchester City's 'inappropriate' Liverpool fans song

The brother of Sean Cox has expressed his disappointment after watching Manchester City's 'Allez, Allez, Allez' chant which allegedly mocked Liverpool fans.

A video emerged online showing Pep Guardiola's squad celebrating their Premier League title win on a team plane, adopting a Reds chant which has been made famous over the past season.

The City players and staff sang their own version of the song which refers to Liverpool fans "crying in the stands" and 'being battered on the streets'.

City officials have insisted that any suggestion the song relates to either the Hillsborough or Sean Cox tragedy is "entirely without foundation" and the players were, in fact, referring to the 2018 Champions League final in Kiev between Real Madrid and Liverpool.
