“Where once Liverpool had bite, now they are toothless and poor Brendan faces a Christmas walking alone.”

The parody does offer hope for the embattled Brendan Rodgers, saying that a small regular donation can help his side overcome their problems - primarily by buying more Southampton players.

Worth waiting for the number to text to make your donation at the end - Liverpool fans may not be amused.
