Former Premier League midfielder and EPSN pundit Don Hutchison has highlighted the Leeds United's owners' 'embarrassed and shocked' reactions to their 6-1 defeat to Liverpool.
The trio of Andrea Radrizzani, Angus Kinnear and Victor Orta were all in attendance to see their Whites ship six goals to Jurgen Klopp's side who dismantled Javi Gracia's men.
Goals from Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez meant that Luis Sinisterra's goal two minutes after halftime was simply an afterthought for those at Elland Road on Monday night.

The result meant that the Whites stayed in 16th, perched precariously above the relegation zone having conceded 16 goals in their last four matches.
While boss Gracia enjoyed the start to life in Yorkshire back in February, it's slowly turning into a disaster after key injuries and poor displays have combined into what is now a serious threat of dropping back into the Championship - something that Hutchison believes is beginning to dawn on club chiefs.
"As the goals went in, the cameras panned in to the Leeds owners," Hutchison told ESPN FC after he'd finished covering the match at Elland Road.
"They were quite embarrassed and shocked at the goals going in. I think Javi Gracia could be in trouble. The last couple of games tell me they’re going down."
