Chris Smalling has been targeted by the official Twitter account of Virgin Trains, who have poked fun at the Manchester United defender's red card in Sunday's derby.

The 24-year-old got sent off for a second bookable offence before Manchester City went on to snatch a 1-0 win against their local rivals at the Etihad Stadium.

This morning, Virgin Trains took the opportunity to make fun of the centre-back by tweeting: "Hi Chris Smalling. Looking to get out of Manchester? We've got tickets to London Euston from £12.50. One way, of course..."

United manager Louis van Gaal described Smalling's tackle as "not very smart" after the derby clash.
