Fans of Liverpool have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays footage uploaded by Dejan Lovren on Instagram.
In the footage, which was relayed on Twitter by Anfield Watch via @BBCMOTD, the 30-year-old centre-back puts in what could be described as a strong challenge on a small child.
In reaction to the post, fans of the club have flocked to have their say on the footage, with some suggesting that they are not surprised to see their defender use such force, while others have claimed that the challenge is one of the best Lovren has made in a while.

Erratic as ever

Reckless, unnecessary and risky challenge? Never.

Should Lovren be sold in the summer?
Yes
No
What do we think?
Lovren has not had much of a chance to impress Liverpool fans so far this season, with the 30-year-old making just nine appearances in the Premier League.
However, it would appear from their comments in reaction to the latest footage of Lovren that many of the fans are surprised the defender managed to successfully challenge the child, and, as such, gives a good indication as to whether they would like to see Lovren back in the Liverpool starting XI.
