Liverpool beat Burton 5-0 in the League Cup at the Pirelli Stadium keeping their first clean sheet of the season in the process but the joy was short-lived as start midfielder Emre Can picked up an injury.

We took a look at how Liverpool fans reacted to the injury on social media.

The severity of Can’s ankle injury remains unknown but it is worrying considering he suffered a similar blow last season.

It was a shame considering Can made his first start of the season and put on an impressive display in midfield.

Liverpool could really miss Can from the midfield over the next few weeks if he is injured.

Liverpool did recently sell Joe Allen who could have offered decent cover if Can is ruled out with injury.

The big question was whether Jurgen Klopp should have ever risked Can for a League Cup game with the Tottenham clash round the corner.

This fan back Klopp’s decision, what do you think?
