Rival fans have taken to social media to mock Liverpool after the Reds' shock loss to Atalanta.
Liverpool gave arguably one of their worst performances under Jurgen Klopp on Thursday when they went down 3-0 to the Italian side at Anfield in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie.
It was a result few saw coming. Supporters had pretty much booked in an exciting final between Klopp's side and Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen in Dublin next month, though that now looks a mere fantasy.
The hosts were tepid and timid, Anfield silenced as they watched their title chasers fold under the expectation in a competition they should have almost strolled.
Manchester United supporters in particular have taken delight in their rivals' struggles. Liverpool drew 2-2 with the Red Devils last week as their title charge hit a bump in the road, and rival fans have taken pleasure in mocking the Reds.
