Twitter reacts to Liverpool's comprehensive 2-0 win over Manchester United

Liverpool defeated Manchester United comfortably 2-0 in their Europa League tie

Manchester United put in a disappointing performance to lose 2-0 to Liverpool at Anfield in the first leg of their Europa League round of 16 encounter. The Merseysiders scored through Daniel Sturridge and Roberto Firmino in what was a completely dominant outing for them. The only Manchester United player who came away with his reputation enhanced was David de Gea, who continues to put in brilliant performances in goal.

Following the match, everyone took to Twitter to post their thoughts on United's performance and Liverpool's great attacking display. Here are the best reactions -

Klopp is gradually transforming Liverpool into an energetic, coherent unit, in a way that Van Gaal has failed to do with Manchester United.

Sir Alex Ferguson would be turning in his grave watching this dreadful United side - if he wasn't still alive.
