Liverpool legend Hansen slaughters David Luiz for Chelsea defeat

Liverpool legend Alan Hansen has slaughtered David Luiz over his performance in Chelsea's defeat to Liverpool.

On his column for the Telegraph, Hansen wrote: "Inevitably, David Luiz is the main focus of attention. He really hasn't got a clue how to defend in a flat back four.

"It would be bad enough if he was being asked to defend on the 18-yard line, but playing so high up the pitch is a disaster waiting to happen.

"He is impetuous, gets caught out of position all the time, pushes forward when he needs to fall back and falls back when he should be pushing forward.

"If you were picking the ideal Chelsea back four, there is no way he'd be in it so I'm bemused by the absence of Alex."
