A number of Liverpool fans have been mocking a Manchester United supporter on Twitter, following his complaints about penalty decisions since Jurgen Klopp’s recent comments.
The Reds returned to winning ways in the Premier League on Sunday night, clinching a 2-0 victory away to bottom-of-the-table Sheffield United.
It was a vital three points in the top four battle, especially with United, Leicester City, Chelsea and West Ham all dropping points beforehand.
United drew 0-0 at Stamford Bridge in the weekend’s most high-profile game, with VAR failing to award the Red Devils a spot-kick at Stamford Bridge.
One supporter took to Twitter to rage about their lack of decisions of late, comparing the statistics pre and post-Klopp’s comments about United and winning penalties.
United's Penalties Before and After Klopp's comments…
Before:
11 Pens in 25 Games (A penalty every 204mins)After:
2 Pens in 16 Games (A penalty every 720mins)Coincidence?#MUFC

The Liverpool manager’s words may have had an Alex Ferguson-esque impact on referees, or at least that’s what some Reds supporters have joked.
These fans took to Twitter to respond to the tweet, mocking the individual in question.
Jurgen Ferguson. Love it. https://t.co/unBpk7YAcv
