Trent Alexander Arnold (27, Liverpool) had his worst day.
"Spanish media clearly expressed their feelings after watching Alexander Arnold's 'horror show' aimed at by Real Madrid," British 'Sports Bible' reported on the 6th (Korea time). "He was criticized after his poor performance against Manchester United."
Liverpool tied Manchester United 2-2 at home in the 20th round of the 2024-2025 Premier League held at Anfield in Liverpool, England on the same day. Liverpool maintained its lead with 14 wins, five draws and one loss (47 points), while Manchester United ranked 13th with six wins, five draws and nine losses (23 points).
Contrary to expectations, Liverpool struggled. In particular, Alexander Arnold, who played as a right back, continued to expose the back space, revealing his anxiety. Manchester United's first goal also came from Liverpool's right space. Lisandro Martinez momentarily advanced into the box and cut the net with a powerful shot.
Liverpool also did not collapse easily. Cody Gakpo's equalizer in the 14th minute of the second half balanced the game. On top of that, Mohamed Salah scored a penalty kick in the 25th minute of the second half to turn the tables.
However, there was no final winner. Manchester United brought the game back to square one thanks to Ahmad Diallo's dramatic equalizer in the 34th minute of the second half. Again, the space on the right that Arnold had to block was the problem. Alejandro Garnacho scored a low cross between the legs of Ibrahima Konate on the cover, and the ball went past Alexander Arnold and to Diallo. Diallo finished without missing it.
In the end, the two teams ended with a 2-2 draw. Alexander Arnold was criticized as the worst player. In fact, he displayed absurd pass mistakes, blunt attacks, and unreasonable return to defense on the day, turning him into a hole for Liverpool. Coach Arne Slot also chose to remove Alexander and put in Connor Bradley at a time when he needed a goal in the 41st minute of the second half.
Fans were angry, saying Alexander Arnold opened his heart due to rumors of a transfer to Real Madrid. His contract with Liverpool expires at the end of this season, but there is still no news of his renewal. For this reason, the prevailing view is that Alexander Arnold will join Real Madrid as a free agent, which had long been called for.
However, if you play like a match against Manchester United, Real Madrid is not the problem. Manchester United legend Roy Keane also said, "Alexander Arnold's defense today is awesome. He was like a schoolboy playing soccer at school. Are they talking about his move to Real Madrid? I'll go to Tranmere Rovers, not Real Madrid! He needs to do better." 안전놀이터
Tranmere Rovers went further. Posting a photo of Cameron Norman on social media, Tranmere Rovers quipped, "Trent to Tranmere? Roy? No, we're fine. Thank you." It was a humiliation for Alexander Arnold to be ignored by the fourth division team.
