Liverpool ended up losing to 1-0 to Swansea at the Liberty Stadium on Monday just a week after becoming the first team to beat Manchester City in the Premier League.
Nobody exactly shone themselves in glory as far as the Reds were concerned but some players received more stick than others.
Emre Can in particularly got roasted on social media after the game, perhaps due to the fact he was named captain.
We took a look at how Liverpool fans reacted to Can’s display against the Swans on Twitter.

Should Can have been given the captains armband if he isn’t staying? or perhaps Jurgen Klopp knows something we don’t? could he be staying after all…
Haven’t spoken about it yet, but if Emre Can is going to leave on a free, Klopp shouldn’t be giving him the captaincy. Don’t care about the longest serving player stuff.

What’s more embarrassing than giving up an 18 game unbeaten run?
Giving Emre Can the captains arm band, a player who doesn’t want to play for the club, hasn’t signed a new contract and flirted with other clubs.
What happened to players wanting to run through walls?
Joke.

Can’s inconsistency annoyed sections of the Liverpool fanbase. Brilliant against Manchester City, not so brilliant against the Swans.
I find Emre Can infuriating to watch, so hit and miss from one week to the next! ??

Can tried. What did Gini offer? He is a tenacious defensive midfielder (by the looks of his #LFC career. Why play 4 defenders and 2 DMs vs Swansea?

I cant remember watching a worse performance than that, in years
Atleast when henderson plays, and is captain, you feel youre getting everything from him. Today, emre can strolled around the pitch, when you need LEADERS. Utterly embarrassing from the club and player

Ouch!
Ford Transit vans have a better first touch than Emre Can.

Let’s just say most fans were not very pleased with Can’s performance.
Emre Can.. the only living thing slower than a rock!! This was out captain against Swansea tonight pic.twitter.com/comM3YIUCR

Tonight is also the reason why Emre Can isn’t worth ruining a club rule for. Not commanding, zero creativity, slow and lathargic. Good player, on his day tremendous, but too many of these types of days too.

gini getting stick but i thought emre can was bloody terrible again tonight

Emre can is beyond awful. I’d let him go now for free because what ever is in the reserves has to be better than that.

Emre Can doesn’t wanna stay and don’t sign a contract but captain ?
— Callum Collins (@CallumCollins1) January 22, 2018
Emre Can performance today was disgusting!
— Aaron Duce (@aaronduce) January 22, 2018
No Swansea or Liverpool player had more unsuccessful touches than Emre Can (3) tonight.
— ReviewFootball (@ReviewFootball) January 22, 2018
Was Can really to blame? or was it the attacking and creative players at fault? – or everyone!
What carra said is true tbh.. but the problem is not in defence.. we lack of creativity to vreate a chances.. i dont want fo blame emre can..he is a holding midfield..we need player who play like cou..that we felt miss today ??
