Van Dijk was far from happy with United’s tactics in the match and essentially accused them of parking the bus.
The Dutchman said: “There was only one team trying to win the game but unfortunately it did not happen.
“We were superior in all aspects, they were hoping to hurt us on the counter and they are buzzing with a point.”
The centre-back’s comments didn’t sit well with United icon Keane, who reminded him of Liverpool’s shortcomings in the league over the last 30 years in a stunning rant.
He said: “There’s a lot of arrogance coming out of him, dissing Manchester United like that.
“He needs reminding that he is playing for a club that has won one title in thirty-odd years.”
He added: “Man United are in a difficult place. Like Liverpool were in a difficult place for many years.
“So maybe that bit of arrogance backfired on him today.”

And another said: “Absolutely love listening to Roy Keane.”
One remarked: “Roy Keane is the king.”

Another said: “Roy Keane is being a baby.”
And another said: “Roy Keane is so triggered.”
