    I thought the artist is portraying we are all monkeys. And we are. I thought the colours would indicate team colours.

    The artists remarks "The monkey becomes the spark to teach everyone that there is no difference, there is no man or monkey, we are all alike. If anything we are all monkeys."

    Its not dissimilar to what the very famous Bristol artist does ..

    I think it's just a cultural difference. Take this Tweet from Luis Suarez years ago:



    He uses the hashtag #weareallmonkeys. I think it looks shocking but has the right intentions, just a bit of a screw up across cultures.

    I saw this and just held my head in bemusement. Part of me was amused that such a thing could have even been considered let alone published, and another part of me recognised the insult and damage it might do to the real message it ‘claims’ to be trying to get across - let alone any black players who might be angered by it.

    It shows that the people that run Italian football just don't get it

    I would of thought Italy being a religious country would not believe in evolution.
