​Jamie Carragher has forced BT Sport to delete their tweet about Liverpool after he savagely mocked them on social media. 

​Football on BT Sport posted a picture of the Liverpool XI the last time they played Benfica ahead of tonight's big Champions League clash.

Rafael Benitez took his then-Liverpool team to Lisbon for a Europa League fixture back in the 2009/10 season.

In the build-up to the Champions League quarter-final first leg, the account tweeted: "Liverpool's squad the last they played Benfica in Lisbon," accompanied with a laughing face with sweat emoji.

However, Football on BT Sport's post didn't go down too well with Liverpool fans, who argued that was actually a solid team. 

It consisted of Liverpool legends Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres as well as cult heroes Lucas Leiva​ and Daniel Agger.

Not to mention Carragher who ruthlessly hit out at the tweet. 

He wrote: "That team is a lot better than your punditry team."

​Carragher's tweet appeared to be aimed at former Liverpool players Michael Owen and Peter Crouch, who are both in the BT Sport studio for Benfica vs. Liverpool. 

Football on BT Sport have since removed their post from Twitter following the backlash.
