Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter in defensive fashion after West Ham boss Manuel Pellegrini publicly called out their manager Jurgen Klopp, following the 1-1 draw between the two sides at the London Stadium on Monday night.

The Reds missed the opportunity to go even further ahead of Pellegrini's former side Manchester City as a result of the draw, although they can probably count themselves lucky they didn't lose as their goal should have been ruled out for offside.

Hammers boss Pellegrini, who appeared to still have his former side Malaga's last gasp defeat to Klopp's Borussia Dortmund in the 2013 Champions League quarter-final on his mind, was not happy with the decision.

The Chilean said: "Klopp is used to winning with offside goals. He beat me against Malaga with a goal seven metres offside - so he cannot complain about anything."

Naturally, Liverpool fans on Twitter have leapt to the defence of their beloved boss after the war of words...
