LIVERPOOL supporters are convinced that a “Manchester United fan with an agenda” is cryptically trolling them through Uefa’s Europa League Twitter account.
Despite reaching the Champions League final 13 months ago, the Reds will play no part in the showpiece competition this term.
Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool missed out on Champions League qualification
The Europa League account shared this snap of Reds duo Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones and fans think they’re being trolled
Jurgen Klopp’s side, despite a late flurry, could only muster a fifth-placed finish in the Premier League last season.
And that means that the six-time European champions are now consigned to playing in Uefa’s second-ranked club tournament.
Liverpool will be participating in the Europa League and it seems that the official Europa League Twitter account is excited about having them around.
For over a week straight they have tweeted clips and snaps to promote this year’s edition, and each day there has been at least one reference, mention or tag of Liverpool.
And it has not gone unnoticed by supporters of the Reds – and they believe that they are somehow getting trolled.
The latest tweet actually promoted Uefa’s Under-21 European Championship, where England have just booked their place in the final against Spain tomorrow.
However, they still even managed to shoehorn a reference to Liverpool in it as they posted a photo of Liverpool’s two Young Lions Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones celebrating.
The caption tagged Liverpool’s club account and included “#UEL” – and that was enough to convince Kopites that the admin was a Manchester United fan trolling their side.
One response said: “We know the admin is a united fan. We dont mind it.”
Another wrote: “They’re not leaving Liverpool alone.”
“Not again,” tweeted another Reds follower, as another added: “it’s getting boring now”.
However, supporters of other clubs have also begun to take notice, and they are loving it.
“Admin has undying love for Liverpool,” declared one, as another begged them to “keep em coming!”
