"It's something you have to deal with when you are at big clubs," Wales manager Ryan Giggs said of Neco Williams being subjected to social media abuse, as quoted by BBC.
"All you can do is surround yourself with good people, educate yourself as much as you can when it comes to social media, and then it's your choice whether you want to be a part of it or not.
"I do sometimes think whether I would have been on social media (in my playing days), I'm not too sure. But it's part and parcel of life now.
"He's at Liverpool, when you are at a big club you are going to have to take criticism at some point if you set a certain standard and you drop below it. Even for 10 minutes."

The right-back is now set to feature in Wales' friendly encounter with England at Wembley on Thursday night,
"Having just worked with Neco, he's got a sensible head on his shoulders," Giggs added.
"I'm looking forward to working with Neco again. He was great to work with and the qualities he showed in the games as well."
