"When you filter (your social media accounts) better, and you stop people being able to see it as much, trolls will get bored - they just want to trigger you."

"As soon as it comes up, it sends an alert and then accounts get blocked instantly. I feel like that should be the answer and that should be an easy thing to be done."

Antonio has also insisted that there should be point deduction to fight racial abuse in the stadiums.
