Chelsea fans had a message for Steven Gerrard this weekend—one that came ironically in the form of plastic placards to remind him of that slip last season.
Gerrard had a few things to say himself.
"It was nice of them to turn up for once today," was his retort when speaking to the Sky Sports cameras post-match.
Gerrard's quip ended a surreal afternoon at Stamford Bridge.
The crowd may have "slaughtered" the Liverpool captain all afternoon, yet the rousing applause he received as he departed the pitch on 79 minutes told its own story about the true feeling on the terraces.
