Trent Alexander-Arnold of Liverpool didn’t appear to be in a good mood on Sunday

Jurgen Klopp substituted him after 59 minutes of the Reds’ FA Cup defeat against Brighton, when the score was 1-1.

Prior to that, Alexander-Arnold had not been playing well for Liverpool.

However, David Thompson, a former professional at Anfield, has indicated that two other players were also to blame.


Thompson tweeted that Alexander-Arnold should scold Mohamed Salah and Naby Keita for ‘pretending’ to track back at the Amex Stadium, leaving him vulnerable.

Alexander-Arnold is a liability defensively at times, despite his offensive brilliance.

That’s why Klopp should speak with Salah and Keita if he agrees that Alexander-flaws Arnold’s against the Seagulls are the result of others failing to fulfill their defensive tasks.

When you’re not outstanding on defense, you need help, and Alexander-Arnold got none from his teammates on Sunday, according to Thompson.

If that’s the case, it begs the question of whether the Liverpool players are still bothered, which is a pretty worrisome indicator, and the results don’t show that notion very wrong.
