Newcastle United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the performance of Emil Krafth against Liverpool.

Krafth was in action for Newcastle in their Premier League game against Liverpool away from home at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.

The 25-year-old right-back did not have a good game on a personal level, struggled defensively, and also missed a good chance in the opening minutes of the second half.

According to WhoScored, the Sweden international took two shots, had a pass accuracy of 58.3%, and made one tackle, one interception and one clearance.

Newcastle fans were not impressed with Krafth and have criticised him on Twitter.

Below are some of the best comments:

Drop Krafth for next game

Emil Krafth blew a couple of big chances today at crucial times. Personally think I’d have Yedlin in there to add another dynamic going forward, although he isn’t as good defensively. Was never getting anything there today, so on to next week! #NUFC

Really need to sort out the rightback situation. Krafth is simply not cut out for this level. Where is Yedlin? #NUFC

Krafth is awful. Almiron needs to learn how to make runs off the ball instead of just running round like a headless chicken. Our away support is awful when it goes down to zero points. Other than that, it wasn’t a bad performance against the best team in Europe! #NUFC

Improvement needed

Krafth is a very good right-back and has a lot of experience, but the Sweden international has not been at his best for Newcastle so far this season.

It is clear that the former Helsingborgs IF and Bologna defender has to improve, and the St. James’ Park faithful will hope that he does so soon.
