Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler trolled United after their ‘Micky Mouse treble’ claimsGetty
The Red Devils were hoping to cap off a successful season with a Europa League trophy – as well as the FA Cup – after winning the Carabao Cup.
However, the Manchester giants’ pursuit of glory came to a dramatic end and Erik ten Hag’s men can now only hope for a double as they are 15 points off the top of the Premier League table.
Fowler decided to poke fun of Liverpool‘s rivals as their original treble chase was very similar to the Reds’ triumph back in 2001.
The Merseysiders won the FA Cup, League Cup and Uefa Cup 22 years ago under Gerard Houllier.
However, some United fans weren’t impressed and dubbed it the “Micky mouse treble” just two years after they won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.
Fowler hasn’t forgotten and took the chance to rub salt into his former foes’ wounds.
The legendary striker shared a picture of himself and former team-mates Jamie Redknapp as well as Sami Hyypia holding a trophy each with a sarcastic caption.
Fowler returned the favour with the following tweet: “Micky mouse treble.”
