Liverpool fans on Twitter have been showing their frustration with Dejan Lovren after he was ruled out of Wednesday’s Champions League game against Porto due to illness.

Lovren has missed a whole host of games for Liverpool due to injury and illness this season, making only 14 appearances for the Reds in all competitions this season.

As well as losing his place in the team he has seemingly lost the backing of the supporters. The Anfield faithful have become more and more frustrated with Lovren’s lack of fitness and certain sections of the fanbase are now calling for him to be sold this summer after his latest set back.
