Jurgen Klopp's men are currently in fifth place, with 66 points on the table - three points behind fourth-placed Manchester United, who have played one game less than their domestic rivals.
And Young, who spent nine seasons at Old Trafford, mocked Liverpool's misery, with Man United fans loving his social media antics.
