Carrick, Ferdinand and more: Twitter reacts as Man United beat Liverpool
Michael Carrick and Rio Ferdinand take to Twitter after Manchester United's 1-0 victory over Liverpool

Wayne Rooney continued his goal-scoring form with the winner at Anfield as Manchester United beat Liverpool 1-0 in Sunday’s early kick-off.
The United skipper scored the decisive goal with 11 minutes remaining after the England international reacted quickest when Marouane Fellaini’s header rebounded off the woodwork.
Here is a selection of the best Twitter reaction from the professionals, past and present, in chronological order to United’s late win at Anfield.
Marcos Rojo has a pre-match message for his team-mates as the Argentina international joined Michael Carrick and Phil Jones in the stands at Anfield:

Unsurprisingly, there is plenty of praise for 30-year-old Rooney after his third Premier League goal of the week and his first at Anfield since 2005:

Former Liverpool striker Adam Morgan isn’t happy watching the injured United contingent celebrating in the stands:
