Liverpool Fans on Twitter React to Shock Defeat to Rock Bottom Swansea

Liverpool fans took to Twitter to convey their outrage and disgust at their team's loss to Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium on Monday night.

It was little over a week ago Liverpool ended Manchester City's unbeaten run in a thrilling contest at Anfield.

The Reds dispatched the Premier League leaders in style, so a trip to rock bottom Swansea would be relatively standard, right?

Wrong. Juergen Klopp's side looked lethargic and blunt going forward and an Alfie Mawson goal meant the Welsh side took all three points against the run of play.

Weirdly, Liverpool cruised to a resounding win the last time the sides met on Boxing Day, but missed the opportunity to go third on this occasion, as Swansea's excellent defending proved too much.

The disappointing result gave rise to why the Merseyside club had not properly invested in January, following the big-money sale of Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona.

Here are some of the best reactions from Liverpool fans on Twitter, though 'meltdowns' would be a more apt description.

I just can’t believe that we did that. Well I can. We’re Liverpool. But to lose to Swansea whilst we’re looking like one of the top teams around is, typically, embarrassing.

Endorsing myself helps numb the pain.

Beating leaders Manchester City and dropping points to bottom-placed Swansea straight after is just peak Liverpool.

18 games unbeaten. 18 GAMES! And then we lose to Swansea of all sides. Only Liverpool.

Swansea City is a harder opponent for us than the unstoppable Manchester City. I'm not even joking, this is tedious.

Georgino Wijnaldum got his fair amount of criticism.

Wijnaldum should be left back in Liverpool if the game is away from home, all he does is recycle possession against teams where we don’t need to.

Matip and Van Dijk have provided so much more creativity than Wijnaldum which is a huge problem.

This summed the night up perfectly.
