Arne Slot: It’s ridiculous to question Trent Alexander-Arnold’s commitment to Liverpool

LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 26:Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold looks on during the Premier League match between Liverpool FC and Newcastle United FC at Anfield on February 26, 2025 in Liverpool, England. The Reds are now tantalisingly close to reasserting their dominance over English football thanks to Alexander-Arnold's winner against Leicester on Sunday. Essentially, with Arsenal beating Ipswich Town earlier in the day, this was an exercise in marking time for Liverpool. The Premier League trophy will be returning to Anfield for the first time since 2020. The only question is ‘when’ not ‘if’. For Leicester City, however, the waiting is over. Only a year after achieving promotion back to the top-flight and less than a decade after breaking the stranglehold Manchester, Chelsea an...

Alexander-Arnold, Alisson, Jota – Liverpool injury news and return dates ahead of Southampton

Alisson Becker of Liverpool receives treatment before going off injured during the Premier League match between Crystal Palace FC and Liverpool FC at Selhurst Park on October 05, 2024 in London, England. Liverpool stormed five points clear at the top of the Premier League with a 2-0 victory over Aston Villa at a boisterous Anfield on Saturday. But it was a victory that came at a cost. Trent Alexander-Arnold came off in the 25th minute with an unspecified injury and is now a serious doubt to join up with the England squad for their UEFA Nations League clashes with Republic of Ireland and Greece. The right-back's withdrawal was the only negative on a night when the Reds took full advantage of Manchester City's fourth defeat in a row in all competitions.

Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold hails Arne Slot advice

Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has said he welcomes critcism from manager Arne Slot in order to become a feared defender in Europe. The 25-year-old has garnered a reputation for his attacking prowess but has also been plagued by a less glittering narrative over the defensive side of his game. However, speaking after Liverpool's 3-0 victory over Bournemouth on Saturday, he said he wants Slot to help him turn that around.

"If any time an attacker gets by me and gets past me, he will call it out in meetings, and individual meetings, and say this cannot happen. We go through every game together and h...
