Liverpool flop Naby Keita drops ‘one of the worst ever Premier League performances’
Football fans have slammed Naby Keita for “dropping one of the Premier League’s worst-ever performances” on Saturday evening as Liverpool traveled to Crystal Palace.
Keita was visibly off the pace as the Reds struggled to get going against Palace. The midfielder picked up an early yellow card, but he still barreled into tackles, walking the line of what could have resulted in a second yellow.
Jurgen Klopp eventually sparred Keita’s blushes when he hooked the midfielder at half-time for Harvey Elliot. And Keita’s performance didn’t go unnoticed by Reds fans, who held no punches on social media.

One football fan said: “Keita is casually dropping one of the worst-ever Premier League performances tonight.”
“I know it’s petty, but giving Naby Keita the number 8, maybe up there with one of the worst decisions this club has ever made,” a second added. While a third tweeted: “Naby Keita is the worst footballer I’ve ever seen!”
And a fourth fumed: “Kieta, one of the worst buys in the Klopp era for the price, so overhyped at the time by so many, summer can’t come quick enough for him to go!”

The Reds have struggled this time out, and Keita has been largely absent from the first team with injuries regularly keeping him away from Klopp’s matchday squad.
Keita has now been at Liverpool for five years, and he’s only managed 83 appearances in the English top flight – with just seven of them coming this season.
