Southampton posted a humorous video to Twitter ahead of this weekend's clash with Leicester City - and accidentally revealed a dig at Liverpool in the process.
The Saints were thumped 9-0 by Leicester earlier in the season at St Mary's, prompting Southampton's social media admin to post a video showing the club muting a series of words on Twitter ahead of the contest at the King Power Stadium.
Words and phrases muted for the next few weeks include: "9-0" and "Haha, 9-0".
But the short video also showed Southampton's official Twitter account has already blocked two words and a phrase - the latter aimed at Liverpool.
The two words blocked indefinitely are the name and nickname of the south coast club's bitter rivals: "Portsmouth" and "Pompey" respectively.
The indefinitely blocked phrase is simply: "Welcome to Liverpool".
The Reds have made a habit of signing Southampton players in recent years, landing a whopping six from 2014 to 2018, which is what the blocked phrase alludes to.

I really love those people in charge of running the Southampton twitter account. They sure do have a good sense of humour. 😁

Good to and fro partnership? Southampton also signed Danny Ings and there are more up and coming Liverpool starlets.
Yes and they have got good money for their players. It’s just that Klopp is able to transform them into stars making the price a bargain..
