The Swans made it to half-time with only a one goal deficit, but capitulated early in the second half when they conceded three goals in ten minutes and a second penalty soon after.

The defeat was the Welsh side's heaviest in the league for more than a decade and it could have been worse. The Reds racked up an incredible 35 shots on goal, the most by any team in the Premier League this season.

The Dutch goalkeeper labelled the defeat as one of his worst days on a football pitch and admitted that he feared a double figure loss.

"We owe the fans an apology because they travel all that way and we play like that - it's a disgrace," said the 29-year old.

"I've played a lot of games in my career already but this is probably the worst.

"As a team you win and lose with each other, but when you have the privilege to play at Anfield against Liverpool in front of their amazing supporters, on a nice pitch, in good conditions and you play like that then you don't deserve to play at Anfield.

"We showed this year what we are capable of against the big teams but our mentality was so poor.

"I hope it's just an accident because we could have lost 10-0 and if you play like that against smaller clubs we will get beat."
