Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards brutally troll Peter Schmeichel live on air

Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards showed no mercy to Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel after their premature Champions League exit.

The Red Devils were knocked out of Europe altogether on Tuesday (December 12) night as Bayern Munich beat them 1-0 at Old Trafford. They finished bottom of their group, with Copenhagen progressing to the knockout stage and Galatasaray making the Europa League.

Schmeichel, who won the competition with United back in 1999, was in attendance at the Theatre of Dreams for yet another disappointing performance from Erik ten Hag's side. He was working as a pundit for CBS Sports.

Once he could get a word in edgeways, the 60-year-old criticised the lack of support from the home crowd. "Everything about today was a little bit weird here at Old Trafford," he explained.
