Liverpool fans don't want player to play for them again after display vs Toulouse

Liverpool fans have decided that they don't want Kostas Tsimikas to play for the club ever again after a shocking display against Toulouse.

The Reds suffered a first defeat in the Europa League this season in controversial fashion.

Aron Donnum opened the scoring in the first half before Thijs Dallinga and Frank Magri struck in the second half at Stadium de Toulouse.

Liverpool briefly got back in the game when Cristian Casseres Jr put through his own net but Magri restored the two-goal cushion immediately after.

Diogo Jota came off the bench to reduce the deficit before 20-year-old Jarell Quansah notched what looked like the leveller in the seventh minute of added time.

But just when it looked like the goal had stood, Alexis Mac Allister was penalised for handball in the build-up and so the strike was called off.

And though nobody covered themselves in glory, left-back Tsimikas was panned online by fans.

The Greek international's performance was so poor that he was taken off at half-time as part of a triple substitution.

He was at fault for the first goal after losing the ball in a key area and was regularly targeted by the French side.

Liverpool fans have been spoilt by the performances of Andy Robertson in recent years and don't want to see Tsimikas in their colours again.

One said: "Tsimikas just isn’t it man. Not good enough for LFC."

A second commented: "Tsimikas is the worst LB in the World."

A third added: "Tsimikas is rubbish. Just always looks half asleep. The gulf in quality between him and Robertson is quite something."

Another weighed in: "Tsimikas had a chance in Robertson’s absence to prove himself, and he’s just shown exactly why he’s been stuck on the bench. By a mile the worst player in the squad. Get him gone."

A fifth commented: "Tsimikas has gotta go man it’s like we still have Manquillo out there."

Tsimikas signed from Olympiacos for a fee of £11.7 million in 2020 and has made 70 appearance for the club.

In September he signed a long-term deal until 2027 - a decision that looks even stranger given his outing on Thursday.
