Liverpool fans impressed with Klavan’s performance.

Liverpool fans tore into Ragnar Klavan and Jurgen Klopp after a defensive collapse against Sevilla.

The Reds had raced into a 3-0 away lead with a scintillating first half performance where they could easily have netted five.

But a second half collapse saw Liverpool produce an anti-Istanbul performance and draw the game 3-3.

The low point was a last minute equaliser, scored by Guido Pizarro, after a weak defensive clearance from Estonian defender Ragnar Klavan.

Klavan was slaughtered by fans after the goal went in, with supporters sick of defensive frailties costing the side games.

Klavan had actually been picking up a bit of praise during the game prior to Sevilla’s equaliser.

Little was expected of him when he signed from Augsburg in 2016, but Klavan has outperformed expectations even if it is clear he is not the long term answer at the back.

Here is a look at the differing praise for Klavan prior to the 90th minute.
