Liverpool were in rampant form once again as they put three unanswered goals past Southampton Anfield to claim top spot above Chelsea for a day at least.
It was a fairly comfortable show on the day from the team managed by Jurgen Klopp as Reds turned a fixture against the Saints – which has been tricky in the past – into a comprehensive 3-0 win.
But it does appear as though not everyone in a red shirt on Saturday was looking good from the perspective of the home fans and Joel Matip is being slated by some fans on social media, even after helping the team keep a clean sheet.
The defender, who was in the starting eleven because of the absence of Dejan Lovren, nearly gave away a cheap goal in the first half due to a misplaced pass.
And even though Matip registered a goal to his name, the fans were still not afraid to criticize his defensive performance.

The Matip we signed was decent. Now he just looks permanently rusty.

Matip is poor. Not even a good back up to have

Watching VVD play makes me realise how much of a liability Matip is. Shaqiri's mentality and attitude is something different under Klopp.
