LIVERPOOL loanee Stefan Bajcetic has allegedly caused quite a stir at new club RB Salzburg.
The 19-year-old joined the Austrian side on loan in August and has made five appearances.
But his performances have been so poor that some of his team-mates have questioned why he regularly plays, according to Austrian newspaper Kronen Zeitung.
To make matters worse for Bajcetic, he was given a 1/10 rating by Krone following Salzburg’s 5-0 defeat to Sturm Graz on Sunday.
The newspaper described him as “looking like a foreign body” in midfield.
His team-mates all received the same rating following the dismal loss.

Last week, it was revealed that Bajcetic received a fine for being late to training ahead of a 4-0 Champions League defeat to Brest.
His team-mate, Bobby Clark, is also struggling to impress at the Red Bull Arena.
The teenager joined RB Salzburg from Liverpool in a £10million transfer this summer.
He followed former Reds assistant Pep Lijnders to Austria when he was appointed manager of the Red Bulls.
