Manchester United fans love Jose Mourinho Instagram post about Liverpool and Steven Gerrard

Jose Mourinho hasn't had too much to gloat about in recent years but there are plenty of results in his past that he can be proud of.

Tuesday (April 27) marked the seven-year anniversary of the infamous Steven Gerrard slip that contributed to Liverpool's failure to win the 2014 Premier League title.

And Mourinho, who was sacked by Tottenham last week, was keen to remind his Instagram followers of that result as he shared an infamous image of Gerrard trying to wrestle the ball off him on the touchline.

The caption read: "Anfield, April 27th 2014. Ball possession."

United fans were among the thousands of football fans who enjoyed what Mourinho shared.

@itz_gagan7: "Most goated account on Instagram"

@thechayfactor: "Hahaha, Jose wins Instagram"

@flexutd: "Got time for this type of Jose!!!"

@messi8390: "Come back to Manchester United"

Spurs contested the Carabao Cup final on Sunday in the club's first game since Mourinho's sacking, but underwhelmed in a 1-0 defeat by Manchester City.

Mourinho remains the only manager to have inflicted defeat on Guardiola on a cup final, having masterminded Real Madrid's 1-0 victory over Barcelona in the final of the Copa del Rey in 2011.
