Liverpool and Arsenal scored a fascinating record at Anfield 2-2 as the Reds seized their last chances in the wounds of their closest competitors this season.

However, Liverpool's victory circle was damaged by fans and expressed anger at leaving right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Kop booed when the announcer called Alexander-Arnold before the game started, but they saved the worst for the worst when they took the England International off the bench.

Alexander-Arnold left the Reds this summer, earning Real Madrid for free and attracting hostile receptions from fans who once cheered his name.

Fans IRE will have Liverpool manager Arne Slot considering whether to leave Alexander-Arnold for their remaining Premier League fixtures. He may be unnecessary interference.

Liverpool's hypocritical fans overreact - View

Some fans think his decision to leave was betrayal. But is this fair, or even rational? Liverpool fans have shown no performance on all social media about the class and legacy.

Why did Kop boo one of his own - a player born in the city, who grew up in the academy, was a key part of their recent success as he chose to leave on his own terms?

This is not passion. This is a ghost.

Alexander-Arnold has provided 23 goals and 92 assists in 353 games. The 26-year-old couldn't be removed from their history.

Alexander-Arnold isn't the first player to walk away freely, he won't be the last one. Liverpool fans need to grow up.

If another opportunity arises, these fans will jump off the boat from their current workplace. But they want Alexander-Arnold to remain loyal.

Liverpool fans will think deeply about players like Joel Matip and forget that he operated contracts elsewhere before joining the Reds.

Do they think Schalke 04 fans were excited when they left their academy graduate Matip in 2016? Is it easy for them to forget how German clubs fight for keeping defenders?

No moral anger was found when it fits them. Liverpool fans are hypocritical. Silence was originally a more important gesture than this.

A cool head should prevail. Elimination of players like Alexander-Arnold for emotional reasons will set a dangerous precedent.

The opposition is more than Alexander-Arnold said. No profession (football or otherwise) should be felt indulged in seeking new adventures.

Slot machines must determine what is the best person for the club, not to appease the uneasy crowd.

Perhaps Liverpool fans will realize in time that one of their own backs is a little slight on their famous “You’ll never be alone” spell.
