Manchester United fans have flocked to social media to mock Jonjo Shelvey for his horrific challenge on Paul Pogba, which left a mark on the French midfielder.
Shelvey avoided a red card in the second half on Wednesday evening after he caught Pogba on the back of the knee with his studs.
The shocking tackle was heavily condemned online as United supporters were left flabbergasted as to why Shelvey failed to see a card for the foul.
Despite being on the receiving end of the nasty challenge, Pogba saw the funny side of things as he took to social media to ask his followers to caption a photo of him showing off the mark left by the Newcastle playmaker.
United fans accepted the challenge as they mocked Shelvey for his lack of silverware and ability in comparison with Pogba.
One supporter chimed in with: 'That's a World Cup winning leg... I know you don't have one.'
One fan even went as far to say that Pogba's quadricep was bigger than Shelvey's whole career.
Pogba helped inspire United to their fourth straight victory under interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as the Red Devils ran out 2-0 winners at St James' Park.
Romelu Lukaku broke the deadlock just 38 seconds after coming on as a second-half substitute before Marcus Rashford rounded off the scoring with United's second.
United are now six points off the top four after scoring 14 goals in four Premier League games under Solskjaer.
