Sheffield Wednesday fans react on Twitter to Glenn Loovens’s performance against Millwall.

Sheffield Wednesday fans on Twitter aren’t chuffed with Glenn Loovens it seems.

The 34-year-old defender was handed a recall for Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat by Millwall but it would appear as if the Dutchman did little to justify his return to the first XI.

The Owls actually took a half-time lead through Joey Pelupessy’s fine effort on 42 minutes.

But two goals in the space of 11 second-half minutes from Lee Gregory and Steve Morison flipped the game on its head and Sheffield Wednesday – who had no striker in the first XI – had no answer for the double.

And some fans of the Hillsbrough club have singled out the former Celtic man for criticism.

It was Wednesday’s second defeat in four Championship games and Jos Luhukay’s side are in need of a bit of inspiration.

The Dutchman’s troops are eight points clear of the relegation zone, but their form is a concern and ideally the Owls need a few more wins before they can really start thinking about next season – and who deserves to stay.

On the back of last night, Loovens, who turns 35 in September, might be among those who could struggle to stay in Yorkshire beyond the summer.
