Many Liverpool fans have reacted to Gary Lineker’s Tweet after the Match of the Day presenter made a sly dig at the Reds following Manchester City’s shock 2-0 defeat to Wolves.
With euro 2021 betting offers still a long way off, Liverpool moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table following City’s surprise home defeat, as an Adama Traore brace gave Nuno Espirito Santo’s side the win.
Following the game, Lineker took to Twitter to aim a sarcastic comment at Liverpool’s title ambitions, and these fans were quick to suggest the pundit is still bitter after his beloved Leicester City fell to a late defeat at Anfield on Saturday.

READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT
While having an eight point lead at this stage is certainly a huge positive for Liverpool, the Reds must ensure they remain focused and motivated after last season’s disappointment in the league.
Leaving it late to beat the likes of Leicester City however, suggest Jurgen Klopp’s men are doing just that, and recording the type of victories that are synonymous with title-winning teams.
