Fans think they’ve worked out what Jurgen Klopp said to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after 0-0 draw

Our thoughts exactly

The first bit definitely didn’t need an experienced lip-reader.

Manchester United’s 0-0 draw with Liverpool on Sunday afternoon certainly didn’t fall into the “classic” category, with chances few and far between for both sides in a stop-start match at Old Trafford.

There were just as many shots on target as there were injury-forced substitutions and given the attacking brand of football usually enjoyed by the rival managers, it made for a frustrating watch for both dugouts.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s injury list swelled significantly; with Ander Herrera, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard all forced out of the game in the first half while Marcus Rashford spent the vast majority of the 90 minutes limping.

Jurgen Klopp, meanwhile, was visibly frustrated and let captain Jordan Henderson know that he was none too pleased with the lack of handshake from the Reds midfielder as he made his way off the pitch with 20 minutes left to play.

The Liverpool manager clearly didn’t enjoy the game and didn’t hesitate to let Solskjaer know, with fans making out what Klopp said when the pair shook hands after the full-time whistle.

There’s no doubting the “fucking hell” from the German but viewers reckon that Klopp followed it up with a brutally honest “what a shit game.”

Hard to argue with that…
