Germany World Cup winner sticks the boot into Arsenal, Man City, Liverpool and Co with brutal seven-word tweet

The Germany legend will be competing in the Champions League semi-finals

BORUSSIA DORTMUND star Mats Hummels took a brutal swipe at Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and West Ham after their European eliminations.

Aston Villa are now the only Prem club left in Europe after beating Lille 4-3 on penalties to punch their ticket to the Europa Conference League semi-finals where they will face Olympiacos.

City surrendered their Champions League crown and failed in their bid to win their second consecutive Treble as they lost to Real Madrid 4-3 on penalties in their quarter-final clash at the Etihad.

And Arsenal's dreams of a first ever Champions League title went up in flames after a 1-0 defeat to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena.

Liverpool's hopes of a Treble in Jurgen Klopp's last ever season as manager also faded away as they were eliminated from the Europa League quarter-finals by Atalanta, even though they beat them 1-0.

And West Ham's European campaign came to an end by Xabi Alonso's newly-crowned German champions Bayer Leverkusen, who extended their undefeated streak with a 1-1 draw at the London Stadium.

Hummels, 35, couldn't help himself as he took to social media to poke fun at all the fallen English clubs.

The centre-back issued a tongue-in-cheek post referencing the derogatory term "farmer's league", which has been used to describe inferior leagues.

This term has also been used against competitive divisions, such as Ligue 1, and there were also occasions when it was addressed to the Bundesliga.

Hummels tweeted: "Good harvesting this week my fellow farmers."

The Germany international and 2014 World Cup winner is now gearing up for the Champions League semi-finals.

The defender helped Dortmund eliminate Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals on Tuesday with a 4-2 victory at the Signal Iduna Park.

Real Madrid fan says 'silent' Man City supporters 'don't deserve this team' and it should be 'given to Man Utd'

Julian Brandt and Chelsea loanee Ian Maatsen gave Edin Terzic's side a comfortable lead early on.

But an own goal by Hummels and a strike by Angel Correa levelled things up and put Atletico in the driver's seat on aggregate.

However, two quick goals from Niclas Fullkrug and Marcel Sabitzer turned the game on its head and capped off a stunning triumph for the Bundesliga giants.
